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 end of March 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,

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.
While in North Cornwall
visit the nearby historical and picturesque villages of Boscastle
and Tintagel which is surrounded in the magic and legends of King
Arthur.
The historic cobbled fishing
village of Clovelly is not far away in North Devon where you can
still see sledges being used by locals to ferry goods.

Further down the coast
you can find the world renowned and spectacular Eden Project,
with its tropical domes and educational facilities. There are hundreds of things for
families with children to do including the theme parks like Camel
Creek Adventure Park (Previously Crealy),
Woodlands and Flambards, many cycle paths,

name a few.

What Our Visitors Had To Say..... |
'We were very pleased with the cottage and found it very
relaxing. Considering the number of animals on the farm
we found it also very quiet. Everything in the cottage
was clean and comfortable and we certainly enjoyed our
12 day stay. We would definitely recommend this to
other people.'
Mr & Mrs Moore . |
'We received a lovely welcome at Penfound Lodge and the
cream tea which awaited us was very much appreciated
after a long journey. We found the Lodge cosy but
spacious with a lovely lounge and spacious bedrooms with
plenty of storage. Our children loved the pony's in the
field in the garden and fed them every day. The Lodge
was very well equipped and we can honestly say we would
thoroughly recommend it as a lovely place to spend a
holiday out of or in season.'
