Based inside the Bude Castle, now a museum and art gallery(where you can buy the items on display) with a lovely café for light snacks, sandwiches and cream teas. The terrace outside overlooks the Summerleaze beach where you can watch the tide come in, a massive sandy beach when the tide is out. Can vouch for the chocolate cake and cream tea, scones are light and fluffy, jam is with real fruit and cream is fresh cornish clotted cream. The venue is also great for weddings, with a lovely large lawn outside. Also do not expect to find a traditional castle as such, on top of a hill with a moat and battlements etc. From the back it does not even look like a castle!
