Description
Nearest town - Kilkhampton 6.7 miles.
Old Sunday School rests in the peaceful village of Welcombe, near Kilkhampton, offering a welcoming and characterful retreat set across three floors, ideal for families or friends seeking a quieter pace of life close to the North Cornwall and Devon border.
On the ground floor, the kitchen/diner is equipped with all the essentials for easy self-catering, whether it’s a hearty breakfast before heading out or a relaxed supper at day’s end.
Loo with wash basin.
Upstairs, the first-floor sitting room provides a cosy spot to unwind, with a woodburning stove adding warmth and atmosphere after days spent exploring the surrounding coastline and rolling countryside.
The top floor hosts two thoughtfully arranged bedrooms, a king-size and a twin (sloping ceilings), along with a bathroom (sloping ceilings) featuring a bath and shower over, offering practical comfort for couples, friends or small families.
Outside, an enclosed rear lawn provides a pleasant place to sit out and enjoy the fresh air, while off-road parking ensures an easy arrival.
There’s no need to cook at this cottage unless you want to, since the ancient thatched pub which serves up excellent food is just 100 yards from the door, you may have worked up an appetite by walking down the valley to the cove – or you can just drive down and park by the beach.
The picturesque fishing village of Clovelly is just a short drive away which occupies a secluded, cliffside position and attracts visitors from the world over - A pedestrianised, cobbled street winds its way down the hillside passing the colourful gardens that characterise the village's pretty, whitewashed cottages, on its way down to the sheltered harbour.
Local shops, pubs and restaurants crowd the working harbour from where the local fishermen show their daily catch of mackerel and check their lobster pots.
With the beaches, cafés and scenic coastal paths of Bude within driving distance, Old Sunday School makes a charming base for discovering North Cornwall, whether you’re seeking bracing sea air, countryside walks or simply a peaceful place to switch off.

What guests are saying
Stunning property beautifully furnished to a outstanding level.
Situated in a tiny hamlet with a cracking Thatched roof Pub within a very short distance
A very attractive and quirky house, very well equipped and in a very peaceful location.
It might be helpful for future guests to be made aware of the tight spaces in the bathroom and the second flight of stairs with no handrail. We're 80 and managed well but we like to think we're pretty fit! The influx of flies on the landing was easily dealt with, with a pan and brush. There was an issue with the toilet flush working adequately. We enjoyed our stay and were very grateful for all the goodies awaiting us. Thank you.
We both loved our relaxing late summer week at this truly unique property - for us there were just two issues.
The head room in the over-bath shower was tight for me at 5’ 10” - but got used to this. The staircase between the lounge and second floor really needs a handrail.
