I had a lovely stay at Tommy Jacks, enjoying the fantastic bathroom featuring a big walk-in double shower and a charming roll-top tub with views of the cliffs. The location near Crooklets Beach was perfect for walks. However, I wish dogs were allowed in the rooms since I couldn't bring my furry friend along. Overall, it was a nice and peaceful getaway! 🏖️😊

I recently visited Tommy Jacks in Bude for the first time, and I had a memorable stay. The location is fantastic, being just a two-minute walk from Crooklets Beach, which I loved (the sound of the waves was soothing!). However, I did encounter some issues with room comfort and service speed at times that slightly detracted from my experience.

My stay at Tommy Jacks was quite lovely overall. The cleanliness and comfort of the bed stood out to me, though the lack of a lift was a minor inconvenience. I adored the delicious breakfast, especially the smoked salmon and scrambled eggs, but I had hoped for more sustainable dining practices given the surf theme. Nevertheless, I would definitely return for its fantastic beach location and friendly staff.
