The Beach at Bude
The Beach at Bude is a stunning 16-room boutique Victorian hotel, but when you step through into the bar area, it becomes so much more. A popular spot frequented by locals and holidaymakers, the bar serves a wide selection of classic cocktails, often with unique twists like the Cornish Mojito, made with mint, lime, cider and a shot of cider brandy. Cocktails are best enjoyed on the expansive terrace, with uninterrupted views of Summerleaze beach. A bar menu is available, serving locally-sourced classics such as Cornish mussels in an ale sauce and an 8 oz. Moorland sirloin steak. For a more formal dinner, the adjacent restaurant is presided over by head chef Joe Simmonds, who trained under Sam Moody at the Michelin-starred Priory in Bath. Dishes such as the Pan-Roasted Stone Bass with Cornish crab rosti, braised, poached and grilled leeks, dehydrated tomatoes and sauce vierge celebrate the bounteous location.
