• Sue (10/5): We love our stay. Thank you for having us. - Steve made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. It was a real home from home and we love our stay at Upton Cross B&B. Really comfortable bed and everything you need for an overnight stay. Fabulous home cooked hearty breakfast. Easy to find and lots of parking. Had a take away delivered in the evening and ate on the patio with the evening sun over looking the lamas and donkeys. An added bonus of being able to have a picnic to take with us next day. Would highly recommend a night stay. It’s so lovely, like a “slice of heaven”. Great location very close to Bude and not far from Widemouth Bay. Nothing
• sarah (10/5): Friendly hosts beautiful location, animals were amazing and it felt like home - It was set in a beautiful location with lots of character Nothing
• Amelia (10/5): - I loved the warm welcome, breakfast was spot on, room cleaned every day and most importantly all the animals are rescue and they have given them such a beautiful life. Nothing

• Rabih (10/5): A perfect stay with wonderful hospitality—we would happily return! - Everything about our stay was fantastic. The B&B is beautifully maintained and set in a peaceful location with lovely views. The room was very comfortable and the breakfast was absolutely delicious. The hosts were incredibly welcoming and went out of their way to make us feel at home. Honestly, there was nothing to dislike. Everything exceeded our expectations.
• Jo (9/5): -
• David (8/5): Ideal for our requirements.Thanks - Breakfast was very good, dogs very friendly. TV allowed us to watch what we wanted, not always the case with resticted channels elsewhere. Only required one night accomodation for the event we travel;ed for, so pleased with the result. Already familiar with the area, but unable to stay with relations on this occation. Excellent hosts.
• hill (8/5): -
• jennifer (10/5): -
• Danny (10/5): -
• rosemary (7/5): Comfortable. - The location was good, breakfast good room nice and clean. Not too sure about the dogs running about in the same room as having breakfast, even though I like dogs.
• David (4/5): Disappointed - Friendly and very pleasant owners Breakfast was satisfactory Bedroom was very basic and needed complete modernising. Single glazed windows allowing drafts in. Paint splashes on blinds. If you dont like dogs this accommodation isn't for you
• David (10/5): - Such welcoming owners , loved the dogs
• Denise (10/5): Amazing - Really kind and helpful owner. Lovely bright and clean room. Slept really well. Wonderful breakfast, which set me up for the day and so good to find somewhere to stay with my dog. There isn't anything negative to say.
• Kelly (1/5): -
• Cameron (8/5): Mega, welcoming, friendly. Hopefully come back again and bring the kid's as well next time. - The owners were really friendly, couldn't do enough to help. My wife and I quite enjoyed feeding their alpaca's, ducks and geese which was a welcome surprise. The breakfast was absolutely superb and came bang on time. The only problem we found was the parking wasn't the most convenient, that being said it was that we couldn't find a space its just a bit awkward.
• Herminia (9/5): Relaxing and had an enjoyeable breakfast with other guests - Hosts are very nice, welcoming and helpful. Breakfast is delicious and there are choices. Nothing to dislike in a beautiful place with beautiful with welcoming people.
• David (9/5): A good choice of b&b and great value. - Welcoming and friendliness of hosts. Great breakfast. Bed could have been softer ( a personal thing) and bed linen was clean but tired!
• Dennis (9/5): - Very Good
• Peter (10/5): Our stay was comfortable and relaxing with great food and a bunch of animals. - The staff was amazing, the house is nice and cozy, the furnishing is very well put together. If that’s not enough, there are alpacas, donkeys, chicken and ducks that are super friendly!🥰 The view to the ocean is great too. Oh, and there are dogs. Lots of dogs. Each and every one of them is a great guy! There’s hardly anything to dislike
• Valerie (8/5): - It was really good Location across from the sea on one side and places to walk with fields and cliff walks super place to visit the host was fantastic couldn't do enough for us very friendly and helpful staff 😀 There wasn't anything really that struck me to complain about. Other than the weather was chilly 😆.
• Smith (10/5): I had a super break - I loved the location & breakfast was delicious There wasn't anything I didn't like
• Rebecca (9/5): Quirky fun little 1 night, with a very kind and welcoming host - Quirky place with animals, and the main host was lovely! Room was a touch smaller than we thought, but it was great for us. Not much to koan about tbh
• Jo (9/5): An ideal base for animal lovers - Steve and Flávio were so friendly. The house felt like a home away from home. My terrier Millie was very happy with the 5 resident dogs and enjoyed making friends with the goose as well! Wry good breakfast. Nothing
• Janet (5/5): Lovely staff and a beautiful area. - Nice and warm. Comfortable seating area. Noisy floorboards , noises in kitchen at night time, clocks chiming in the night, shower ran hot and cold whilst in use.
• Ian (9/5): Exactly what I needed, quiet, comfortable and a great breakfast. - It's a fabulous site with an easy walk to the beach and sufficient parking. The welcome on arrival was effusive, and the accommodation comfortable. Breakfast was a sight for sore eyes; a genuine full English breakfast that kept me going for a very active morning. I will certainly use Upton Cross again when I need somewhere to stay in the area.
• Silke (10/5): - We had wonderful 3 days at Steve's house. The animals were very friendly! There were 4 smaller dogs and one tall one, 2 donkeys, 6 alpakas, goose, chickens, dugs. It was pure fun. The breakfast was rich and very nice. Steve made sure we didn't start the day hungry. The room was comfortable and warm and for those who wonder: dogs are not allowed in the room area upstairs. For me the bed was comfortabel, for my boyfriend a little too short since he ist 1,86m. I particularely liked the warm, spacious shower and the bath robes provided. Made me feel like in a bit of a wellness holiday :) We could see the sea from our window, along with a lot of green fields and animals of course. Bude has some nice pubs and over all was the house well located for short trips. Steve provided us with tips which places to go to and so we collected oöenty of nice memories.
• Matty (9/5): -
• S (10/5): A Cornish Gem for an overnight stay. - Location excellent, peaceful no streetlights and couldn't hear the traffic at all. Easy to find and parking appreciated. Proprietors gave warm welcome and service was above expectation. Conversation and knowledge of area was very helpful. Breakfast really lovely, is cooked and ready when you arrive at table - would welcome a small selection of cereal/alternative to orange juice possibly before hand. If you like animals this is the place as the dogs are very affectionate, chickens, ducks and Alpacas great to see living their best lives. Unable to find anything, look forward to returning
• William (8/5): We come down from West wales to Bude for see my best mate live in Bude Cornwall and we enjoy out for the days and out fo - Lovely place and lovely view when you relax sit outside plus see lots of gooses and ducks and hens so landlord gave me some breads for me to feed them was great I enjoy plus feed to donkeys and Llamas so we enjoy. Landlord was great so friendly and try to understand with us because we are Deaf and not gave up and try carry on talk with us and help us was total great and we will came back again because landlord was love;y to us make us feeling like we are family great. Plus they got wow 80” big TV in 2 rooms wow that great we love it None everything great nothing to say cos we enjoy
• Pat (10/5): Very relaxing. - Beautiful location, the owners couldn’t do enough for us, we were made to feel very welcome and we just loved all their pets, we will definitely be staying again.
• Hilda Joanne (7/5): Location and breakfast. I would stay there again. - Great location, good breakfast. Liked being able to park out front. The bathroom had a faucet that wouldn't turn off.
• Graham (8/5): -
• Matt (9/5): -
• Mark (9/5): - The location was brilliant as were the staff and the breakfast ,car parking on site was also a major plus. The BnB was dog friendly ,something we look for when booking. Steve the owner has dogs himself and our dog Lola loved the place as much as me and my partner Karen ,we will definitely return .
• Fiona (10/5): -
• Jane (8/5): - Lovely outlook and animals well cute . No dressing table and mattress not very firm..but thats just taste.
• Christine (10/5): - Our dog was welcome, we were never allowed to be hungry after breakfast and we felt at home. All the animals. Hosts very friendly and helpful. Nothing not to like.
• Caroline (8/5): - great location and very welcoming, also suggested where to visit and where to eat. loved the dogs but maybe keep them away from dining area, while in use.
• Caroline (9/5): - Steve was very friendly and welcoming
• Darryl (10/5): -
• Deanne (9/5): - Very friendly owners ,great breakfast,very welcoming thankyou x 😊 Mattress to hard for me
• Richard (7/5): A good experience overall. It suited our purpose for a one night stay. - The reception from the owner was very welcoming and the service we had throughout was also very good. The breakfast was very filling, delivered on time and was well received. The location was as advertised a good Cornish mile from the town centre. Our main issue concerned the 'en-suite'. It was a bit cramped/narrow and not especially well lit.
• Hannah (9/5): - We stayed here on the first day of our South West Coast Path walk, after a very long day of traveling, and we couldn’t have been happier to arrive. The two hosts gave us such a warm and caring welcome that we immediately felt at ease. The room was comfortable, and breakfast the next morning gave us the perfect start for our walk.
• Andrew (8/5): Great stay , Flávio and Steve make you so welcome . It’s quirky and if you adore animals it’s brill - So welcoming , the B&B was brilliant for our dog Milo who had the run of the house with owners 5 dogs. If you love animals you will love this place .
• Karen (7/5): -
• Jörg (10/5): - Klasse BB, man fühlt sich sofort herzlich willkommen in einem aussergewöhnlichen Haushalt. Vom Esel-Füttern bis zum Ratsch ist alles sympathisch und geprägt von großer Gastfreundschaft und Menschenliebe. Eine wirklich besondere Unterkunft. 1000 Dank !
• J (8/5): Prettige kamer en s'avonds nog even naar de zeekant gelopen, vlak bij. - Mooi ingericht en gezellig verblijf. Vriendelijke gastheer. Je hoorde in de nacht wel lichtjes de branding.
• gomez (10/5): -
• angela (7/5): Comfortable and warm, welcoming owners - Breakfast was amazing and plenty to eat Could do with some repair work in places

• Greenfield (8/5): - What a wonderful place to stay, fantastic location at the top of bude. The owner was very polite and helpful and gave us some great suggestions on places to visit near by. Breakfast was tip top with a good selection. We would definitely stay again. The decor and the bed are a bit tired but all in all a lovely place to stay.
• Anthony (10/5): - True gentlemen and so friendly N/A
• Elizabeth (10/5): Wonderful. - Location and breakfast were lovely. Very exciting that we got to feed the alpacas and donkeys and geese were funny too. The staff were very friendly, warm and inviting.

• Sabrina (9/5): Schönes Haus in ruhiger Lage - Wir wurden sehr herzlich empfangen, vor allem von den Hunden. Meine Tochter durfte morgens die Alpakas und Esel füttern. Sehr gutes englisches Frühstück in familiärer Atmosphäre. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Toll gelegen für Ausflüge in die Gegend
• Philip (8/5): - Very friendly hosts. Great location. Good parking. Very good breakfast

• Chris (10/5): -
• Ian Blunt (9/5): -
• Andy (8/5): -
• Barbara (8/5): Comfortable, clean and excellent value for money - Location was superb, lovely views and quiet and peaceful Noisy donkeys woke us a couple of times!
• stait (8/5): Welcoming, very friendly and accommodated every need you may have - Location was perfect for us. We prefer not to be in the centre of things but walkable in along the coast path approx 40 mins. The owners were super friendly and went outvof their way to ensure that we were comfortable and we'll looked after. Lovely cooked breakfast and fresh fruit. Loved the animals...alpacas, dogs, ducks and hens, but the donkey and cockeral woke us up early morning 🤣 but not enough to stop us returning. The view of the animals from our window was wonderful.
• Stuart (10/5): A perfect place to base your local travels from. - Very friendly host and made to feel completely at home. The sunset picture is of Widemouth Bay.
• Katja (5/5): - Sehr netter Betreiber. Angebot für Lunchpaket statt 8.45 Uhr Frühstück wurde und war dann sehr reichlich bestückt. Ich hatte das Gefühl, dass es nicht sauber war, was sicher an der Auslegware lag, die auch im Bad zu finden war. Zu viele Möbel für den engen Raum, Berghütten-Gefühl.
• Wioletta (10/5): Staff very very nice ,we just looking to come back there very lovely place to stay - Everything!!!It’s a very comfortable.The property is just beautiful inside and outside Nothing
• Ouma (8/5): - Owner was very friendly and welcoming. Lots of animals and we fed the alpacas and donkeys.
• Natalie (8/5): -
• Christopher (6/5): A quirky place but rather behind the times run by friendly hosts. - Very generous breakfast although rather old fashioned and lacking in choice. Very welcoming and friendly hosts. The communal breakfast table was a great addition - a good place to meet fellow guests, which we did. Our room had an infestation of fruit fly, which didn't help. In general the room could do with updating. Only one accessible electric socket. En suite pretty basic with no decent toiletries.
• Tolstinskaia (10/5): - Хозяин дома - Стив- очень приятный и общительный. Любит пошутить . Вас встретит целый дружелюбный зоопарк: 4 собаки, 3 кота, 2 осла, 4 альпаки, гуси,утки,куры,петух. Дизайн внутри очень уютный. И пусть номер немного уставший,но это не так важно. До ближайшего ресторана 5 минут на машине. В общем мы остались довольны,.
• Minimaev (8/5): Guesthouse with lots of personality& super friendly hosts😃 - B&B with lots of personality& super friendly, helpful and accomodating hosts. Comfy beds, good location& yummy breakfast. We also loved the menagerie of dogs, chickens, carrot- loving alpakas & donkeys& the cheeky duck asking for breakfast😃 Thank you!!
• Jayne (10/5): Perfect stay thank you - Spotless clean Excellent breakfast Host went above and beyond ensuring comfortable stay Fabulous scenery Nothing
• Elizabeth (8/5): - Location friendly. Rooms were good size. Breakfast was all freshly cooked and more than enough to start the day.
• Charles (8/5): - Ok its all been covered before, if you were rating as per 4 in a bed you would definitely be able to mark down for cleaning, but you've got to remember its their home and home for their 5 dogs.. I'd say its clean enough to be healthy and dirty enough to be happy. Definitely 10/10 for the Steve and Flavio,they couldn't do enough.. Breakfast was good, but if I was being fussy (and I am because a sausage is a very important part of life itself) I would prefer a better quality sausage.
• Clemence (10/5): B&B convivial - Superbe localisation. Excellent accueil par les hôtes. Excellents conseils de pub et de visites. Petit déjeuner copieux. Les chiens sont adorables et les oies divertissantes.
• emma (10/5): -
• TonyTrubiroha (9/5): - Je to o vkusu typicky anglické ubytování spíše původní které tak nějak utvářelo atmosféru pro někoho může být divné, pro někoho romantické. Pan co nás měl na starosti velice milý, starostlivý ochotný. Pro běžného středoevropana je snídaně v typicky anglickém stylu asi málo, ale je to o vkusu, domácí psy běhající kolem stolu při snídani také nemusí všem vyhovět
• Helga (7/5): Solides Guesthouse B&B außerhalb von Bude - Kleines B&B-Guesthouse außerhalb von Bude oberhalb der Klippen mit schöner Aussicht auf das Meer bzw. die ländliche Umgebung. Check-in und Check-out unkompliziert, sehr zugewandte und um die Gäste bemühte Hosts. Das Frühstück war lecker und frisch zubereitet, auch auf individuelle Wünsche wurde eingegangen. Bude ist mit dem Auto in wenigen Minuten zu erreichen, zu Fuß kann man wunderbar an den Klippen entlangspazieren. Unser Zimmer war recht eng und nur zweckmäßig eingerichtet. Sehr hundefreundliche Unterkunft - wir haben nichts gegen Hunde, doch fünf Hunde allein von den Hosts im Haus und somit tendenziell auch im Frühstücksraum waren uns einfach zu viel.
• Darren (10/5): - Owners are lovely couldnt do enough for you, great breakfast, very clean room, loved watching all the animals, good parking, whole place had a very freindly feeling
• Brian (9/5): - The host was very friendly and the atmosphere was fantastic, nice place around to enjoy a meal.. Love looking at the animals.. A short walk across the road and you had to wild rugged..
• Sarah (6/5): - Lovely hosts, very nice location with a really nice relaxed atmosphere. Very dog friendly which was amazing. Enjoyed a full English breakfast, that was delicious. Other animals ( Alpacas, Donkeys) etc was lovely to spend time with. The room was very basic and dated. The bathroom facilities were very small and we couldn't get the shower to work.and the bath wasn't big enough for an adult. Toilet system looked like it was falling off the wall There were some cobwebs above the bed and floor boards were very noisy.
• Allies (9/5): We received a very warm welcome from Flavio and Steve who are excellent hosts! - Breakfast was delicious - freshly cooked with good ingredients. Only slight disappointment was catering sausage rather than butchers sausage but otherwise lovely. Nothing
• Thorne (8/5): -
• Bernhard (9/5): Angenehmer Aufenthalt in familiärer Atmosphäre - Nette Leute, sehr unkompliziert und freundlich. Gute Lage am South-West-Coast-Path, sehr hundefreundlich. Gutes Frühstück
• Heather (9/5): - The breakfast was lovely (outside on the patio with wonderful views) and we shared a table with another couple, which was nice and sociable. The situation was great, not too far to walk into Bude for the evening. The house was interesting and Steve and Fabio were very friendly. It was a heat wave when we stayed and there was not enough ventilation. .
• Rosie (10/5): - Lovely hosts, very welcoming. And lovely animals! The hosts picked up our bags when they got dropped off at a different location which was very helpful, thank you very much for sorting that for us! An excellent breakfast as well. Kitchen was a little messy, but didn't detract from the stay!
