Recent reviews Bude
[tartlette, 27/08/2009] On our recent trip to Bude Mr Tart and myself were looking for somewhere posh to eat on the Saturday night. We had despaired because a wander around the town the night before had established that Bude was not awash with restaurants. We used the Internet to see if we could find anywhere and came up with the Castle Restaurant, which promised fine dining and stunning views it looked perfect!
LOCATION:
The Castle is located inside Bude castle. This is not (much to my historical disappointment) a real castle but a Victorian building with some Victorian revival towers and crenellations throw

[tartlette, 01/08/2009] For his birthday I got Mr Tart a trip to Cornwall so that we could go surfing. I’d never been to Cornwall before so I did a fair bit of research about the best places to surf (I’d never done it before and he’s a beginner) and came up with Bude, especially as it was one of the closer places in Cornwall for us to get to. I was looking for a reasonably priced guesthouse for us to stay in and came across Dylan's.
LOCATION:
Dylan's is located on Down’s View Road in Bude. It is about 5 minutes away from the town centre and the beach. Bude itself is in North Cornwall. It took us about 3 hours t

[mlane, 18/05/2009] I don't usually write these review things, but this hotel compelled me to. The room rates suggest that this is a run-of-the-mill bed and breakfast. But it turned out to be one of the best hotels (in terms of food and service) that we have stayed in. The food, service and hospitality were very high quality - the sort you find in top 5 star hotels around the world. At the moment, it seems to be an unknown gem and it is easy to book rooms and tables, but I think it is only a question of time before people hear about it and it will become impossible to book. Go now before the "foodie" crowds

[arbirch, 12/02/2009] My wife and I visited on our wedding anniversary. The food was of excellent quality, the restaurant ambience extremely pleasant, and the service delightfully friendly and helpful. My wife declared that it was the best meal she'd had for years (and ever, in this region) and we recommend this hotel as the best place to go for a meal in this region.
[bob1379, 10/12/2008] As ever, we received a very warm welcome from the team, who looked after us very well. I was impressed with the work that had been carried out, particularly on the family rooms, and we were certainly very comfortable.
The food we had during the weekend was all very, very good, from the light(ish) lunch on Saturday, which was well received after our long journey, the delicious dinner on Saturday night (the menu for which provided the biggest decision making challenge of the weekend,) the great full English breakfast and the splendid Sunday roast. Suffice to say I did not need feeding on Su
