Set in a beautiful location among stunning scenery with views of the hills in the distance, this single-level property promises an exciting family holiday for all. Stylish and comfortable, this holiday home is an opportunity to get outdoors and experience some great activities just a few miles from the doorstep. Try your hand at the ancient skill of archery at Dragon Archery (6 miles) or have a go at sailing, kayaking or paddleboarding at the Tamar Lakes Country Park (14 miles).

Whether you’re off exploring the footpaths in nearby Clawton (3 miles) or simply enjoying the views from the wrap-around garden, you’ll find your perfect place to be here. Beautiful blue tones in the kitchen diner make it a pleasure to cook in and eat sociable meals around the table as you plan tomorrow’s adventures. Fresh and bright decor gives the bungalow a contemporary ambience without spoiling the feeling of being at the heart of the countryside. The lounge is light and airy, but light the wood burner in the evening and snuggle up in front of the TV for a cosy and relaxing end to the day.

Adrenaline-junkie kids will love the Milky Way Adventure Park (20 miles); this is a perfect attraction if you’ve brought your pup as they’re welcome to watch their friends as they seek thrills. If it’s the seaside you’re after, Bude (15 miles) offers stunning beaches as well as plenty of pubs and cafes and wonderful views from the South West Coast Path. Have a quirky day out at the Gnome Reserve (13 miles) and see how many gnomes and pixies you can spot among the 4 acres of wildflower gardens and woods.

We could not have asked for a better stay at Ren Vista. Views, sunset etc. Lovely quiet location to recharge batteries. Great host who has taken care to cover the start of your stay making a cake and milk in fridge. Was a warm welcome on our arrival. I cannot recommend staying at Ren Vista highly enough

We had a lovely week at Ren Vista. Very peaceful surroundings. The cottage was very clean. We were a party of 4 adults and there was plenty of room for all of us. The kitchen has everything you need and more. The beds were lovely and comfy. Mandy was very welcoming, helpful and friendly We loved it there and definitely want to return.

Lovely cottage with a large modern kitchen/dining room containing every piece of equipment you would need. The lounge was very comfortable with far reaching views from the large window. All three bedrooms were large & beautifully decorated.

Spotless property, very well equipped and the views from the rear bedrooms were great. Nice comfortable bed in the double bedroom made for a very happy wife!!!!! We spent a few days at Widemouth Bay, great beach, dog friendly and a excellent cafe. Parking was a bit pricey but we were on holiday so no worries.

A lovely 2-week holiday at Ren Vista. Our sporty manual wheelchair user was a little challenged by some of the "Accessible" Devon & Cornwall recommendations taking her up hill and down dale on dirt tracks but we enjoyed everything we did, staying within 55 miles of Ashwater, with a focus on birding. Bude Canal was a delight, the Big Blue Surf SchooRead morel and sand chairs got us onto Summerleaze Beach, The Lost Gardens of Heligan are magical, and Roadford Lake has views. The cottage became like home! Hide
