Countryside & Coast Life Awaits... The Best Of Both.
Parnacott House is a comfortable and welcoming old manor house situated on the Devon /North Cornwall border - it is a quite unique holiday home. Close to the North Cornish coastal resort of Bude, with fine sandy beaches up and down the coast, Parnacott is the perfect place for a week's holiday or a short weekend break.
Set amidst lawns, trees and fields in beautiful Devonshire countryside, Parnacott sleeps up to 14 in 7 bedrooms. It is well suited to 3 or 4 generations coming together to share time and love. Children and dogs have great fun here.
Tranquil, spacious, inviting, and and just an easy drive from the South West Coastal Footpath, Parnacott House combines the best of coast and countryside. It is an established holiday home ready to provide happy times for families gathering, friends reuniting and special celebrations.
"A 'WOW' house, really beautiful.

A Time To Relax & Enjoy Life
The
House
As well as the large dining room seating up to 14 and the comfortable drawing room with its open fire for chilly evenings, the ground floor has two further sitting areas with sofas.
One is beamed and slate floored with a pool table, a large Smart tv (Netflix, Disney, Amazon and so forth), games, books, small puppet theatre, dolls house and a dressing up box – ideal for children.
The other is the Sitting/Breakfast room with its wood burning stove, another tv, and a table and chairs. This area opens out into the well equipped kitchen, which means those preparing and cooking food are always part of the group.
In addition to the utility room there is a downstairs loo/ shower room, and two bedrooms – a double and a twin. This area of the house can be ideal for those bringing their dog(s) with them, as the side door has level access to the yard and gardens.
Upstairs you will be able to choose between 5 bedrooms, 3 of which are doubles - one with a Four poster bed.
The middle Of Nowhere
The Grounds
A true rural retreat, a country house at the end of a winding private lane, Parnacott enables you to step out of time, as it were. Rich in a variety of habitats and wildlife, you can forget about stress and noise, about the pressures of the 'Madding Crowd', and sit out in the garden relaxing and listening to the songbirds – you might get to see a hare or even deer crossing the lawns.
Reconnect with nature, wander down the old back lane, lose yourself in the beauty around you and simply 'be'.
Parnacott’s position on rising ground gives it views out toward Dartmoor to the South East and Bodmin Moor to the South West.
An Award Winning Seaside Town
Bude
Find yourself in the award winning coastal town of Bude. What's not to love about this seaside town, and only 8 short miles from Parnacott. Wander the town and discover unique shops of all sorts. Food's a must while visiting Bude, with locally run restaurants, great pizzas and burgers - by no means average - amazing fish and chips, Cornish pasties, ice cream places and branded or local coffee shops abounding, you won't struggle to find places to eat and drink. We provide a list of interesting eateries and watering holes in and around Bude.
Bude has 3 beaches, one, Summerleaze, dog friendly. Crooklets and Summerleaze have both been awarded Blue Flag status for water quality for 2024. (Blue flag is internationally recognised and a fitting tribute to these beautiful beaches.) There are 5 further beaches along the coast close to Bude. Try Widemouth Bay first; the two beaches have also been awarded Blue Flag status. Surfing is a big part of Bude and its culture so there's no better time to get into the waves. Surf schools are there in Bude and at Widemouth to help first timers on the Malibu boards. Summerleaze is famous for its tidal sea pool - great for children and those wanting to do lengths.
