Welcome to Ponytails Holiday Cottage, Nr Bude.

Ponytails is a self-catering holiday cottage situated on a working farm in Poundstock, near the coastal town of Bude in North Cornwall. The farm and cottage were originally part of the historic, beautiful old Penfound Manor Estate, steeped in history dating back to the 12th century as mentioned in the Doomsday Book.

The cottage captures a true rural feel and enjoys uninterrupted views over distant rolling countryside and overlooks a large lawn and orchard, which is often occupied by our Shetland pony Sugar and our new pony Annie, who will no doubt be waiting at the fence for treats.

The well equipped single storey barn conversion can accommodate up to 4 persons, furnished to a high standard with the property reflecting its farm heritage.

While on the farm you can enjoy a walk where you might see baby lambs and cows and calves in the fields.  There are also ancient woodlands full of wildlife for you to explore. 

You can rent the property anytime from the April through to end of September, so come and escape to the countryside and enjoy a peaceful and relaxing holiday.  For up to date availability and prices, just click here.

The cottage is just a short drive from the sandy beaches of Widemouth Bay, with it's mile long stretch of flat sand, which is also renowned for it's high quality surfing and dramatic cliff top walks. 

Further along the coast, a 10 minute drive takes you in to the lively seaside town of Bude with its abundance of shops, restaurants, pubs and cafes which are renowned for their cornish pasties and clotted cream teas.  Bude also offers an outdoor sea pool, indoor fun pool, rowing and fishing on the canal, 18 hole golf course as well as 10 pin bowling and indoor soft play zone.
