Very popular during the season for lunches and evening meals, so you'll often find it very busy indeed. They also do a really excellent Sunday lunch. It can be difficult to get rooms during the season as they get booked up really quickly - if you see the views from the rooms, you'll understand why.

We were booked here through a KGB voucher for 2 nights. The hotel location is excellent as it is…read morewalking distance from the beach and a few minutes from town and all the restaurants. We have found reception and all restaurant staff extremely helpful. With the voucher we had a 2 course meal which we both felt was great value with a reasonable choice of starter and main. We also chose a very nice wine at a very reasonable cost. The room was as expected reasonable size with a good quality small LCD TV. Breakfast is at 8.30 which we thought would be a problem as all guests were to arrive then. it wasn't, the staff are really well organised and orders were taken very quickly, and food arrived just after. Great breakfast, well done. This hotel does exactly as you would expect. There are a reasonable amount of reasonable shops to enjoy all nearby and a great selection of coffee shops and restaurants. Thank you for a superb stay in Bude.

I really can't fault the Edgcumbe in Bude..it's a fabulous place to stay and check out the sights…read moreof Cornwall. The hotel owners are incredibly welcoming and helpful; the views are great; the food in the hotel's Gallery restaurant is second-to-none (it was so good we ended up eating there most nights.and a couple of lunchtimes too!); and the decor (of both the rooms and the general areas) is of a very high standard; and the room prices incredibly reasonable. I shall go back again and again. Like I say, can't fault it!

Visited in the afternoon. Daytime menu very limited and wildly overpriced (£3 for a portion of…read morefrozen chips? Really?). We ordered our food at the bar and took a seat. The waiter brought it over and dumped it in the table without offering us cutlery, sauces, condiments or even a smile. The burgers were fine and we sat for a good half an hour after eating looking over the beach finishing our drinks. Nobody came to clear our plates until we (and all the other unattended tables) were attacked by seagulls swooping down for the left overs. Pricey and unattentive. Give it a miss and eat in the town.

In the evening this place chances from a beach cafe to an upmarket bistro. It is extremely popular-…read moreso book in advance. Their speciality is seafood- and the 'special of the day' (clams, mussels, crevettes, red mullet, hake, lemon sole all cooked very simply and served over delicious buttery marsh samphire, accompanied by a small portion of chips) was 25 pounds a person, for a minimum of 2 people. It was a real 'taste of the sea'- fresh and delicious- but quite expensive. Starters are reasonable at about 5 pounds a person- try the crab bisque which was a real highlight. The house wines are remarkably reasonable- a crisp french sav blanc was 10.50, and went down very nicely! A great holiday meal out- the views over the sea combined with fish cooked with a light touch make it the perfect summer venue for a bit of a treat.
