Description

Parnacott House is a comfortable country manor home of great character and a warm and welcoming spirit set amidst lawns, shrubs, trees and fields. Located 3 miles west of Holsworthy and an easy 8 miles from the beautiful seaside resort of Bude in North Cornwall, Parnacott House sleeps up to 14 in 7 bedrooms, two of which are on the ground floor. (Four bath/shower rooms, one of which is en suite.) Parnacott is a characterful Grade II Listed house and self-catering holiday home, family owned and run, that welcomes children and dogs. We are also a licensed wedding venue specialising in small, intimate weddings.

Parnacott is ideal for family holidays, birthdays, special celebrations, reunions, small work/study groups and those who want to unwind and spend invaluable time with friends. We book Friday to Friday and for 7 nights during the school holidays. We can be more flexible at other times of the year, offering 3 nad 5 night stays. Weekends, or mid-week breaks are very popular. Parnacott is child and dog friendly. Wi-Fi (Airband) is provide free of charge and available throguhout the house.

Christmas and New Year are very special and completely enchanting weeks. Decorated for the festive season, right through December and into January, Parnacott is rich in festive flourishes; the house glows and twinkles - a magical experience for children and the young at heart!

There's plenty of space indoors and out. Inside we have a spacious 'games' room with pool table, dressing up box, dolls' house, small puppet theatre, toys, games, books and a smart tv (Netflix etc).

There are three seated areas, the sitting breakfast room with its wood burning stove, the 'games' room, and the drawing room which is a more 'grown-up' space with its open fire and views out onto the gardens - perfect for when the children, happily exhausted, are safely tucked up in bed.

Outside we have lawns for croquet, badminton, cricket, football, fun and relaxing. Children can explore the grounds, play and generally rush around making as much noise as they like. (We consider ourselves very fortunate to be able to offer so much outdoor space to holidymakers.) The barbecues are of the traditional charcoal type with wooden garden furniture and recliners. The hot tub seats up to 7, is extremely popular and is available from April to end October. (At other times of the year only by prior arrangement and at additional cost.) In the open barn across the old back yard there is a Ping Pong table, body boards and beach kit including buckets and spades - all available to make use of. We are lucky to have lots of private parking space in the old back yard and in addition can provide on request secure space for bikes, roof boxes or Malibu/paddle boards.

Parnacott House is a licensed wedding venue. We host petite, intimate and elopement weddings. Get married in the Georgian drawing room or outdoors, Spend your wedding night in the four poster. We can be very flexible out of the High Season: you might decide to book one day, 2 or 3 nights, or longer. Bring a few close friends and family - create your own day. Perfect for intimate weddings. We can help at every stage or not, as you please! Phone to talk through early plans and get an idea of cost.

The North Cornish coast is rich in lovely beaches, many of them sandy and most of which are great for surfing. Summerleaze, the largest Bude beach, has a sea pool - always enjoyed by young children as well as adults. It has a sandy shallow end. Surfing lessons can be booked online ahead of your holiday and are very popular. As the tide retreats, rock pools are exposed and provide a lot of fun for children. There are RNLI Lifeguards on all the main beaches during the season, and over the October half-term - really reassuring. Many of the beaches are dog friendly. (We can recommend Black Rock Beach at Widemouth.)

The South West Coastal footpath offers walkers varied walking experiences and many stunning views., especially when heading up from Bude towards Hartland Point. Bodmin and Dartmoor are easily accessible and Exmoor too.

Should you wish to hae a chef come in and cook for you we can give you contact details and you take it from there. You will be waited upon at table and the clearing up will be taken care of - what is not to like! This option has become increasingly popular..

Parnacott is about one hour from Exeter or Plymouth and two from Bristol, and is ideally located for exploring and enjoying this very beautiful part of the Westcountry.
