With endless sandy beaches, dramatic cliffs, a canal, acres of Cornish countryside, lakes, woodland, cycle trails and picture-perfect villages, exploring Bude on Cornwall’s border with Devon, is the perfect holiday project for a family getaway, a group trip with friends or a romantic break for two.
Unique and unspoilt, Bude is North Cornwall’s premier resort town. Breathtaking coastal scenery provides amazing views, and the rugged coastline is very popular with those who love to walk. This beautiful seaside town has a number of independently owned shops as well as a choice of high quality restaurants and cosy pubs – the perfect destination for those looking for a Cornish caravan holiday by the sea. Bude is also very near the border with Devon so is within easy reach of Dartmoor and picturesque Devonian villages such as Clovelly too. Perfect for South West exploration.
Bude is renowned for its excellent surf and outdoor adventures. A vast array of outdoor activities will provide excitement for the whole family. The adrenaline junkies will love coasteering, whilst canoeing, boating, or sailing will suit those who prefer something a bit more gentle! For the less athletic the Bude Canal, with flat tow-path walks, magical marshes, thriving wetland and resplendent recreational areas provide excellent access for birdwatchers, fishermen, walkers and cyclists. Bude’s maritime museum, the Bude Castle, its canal and unique sea-lock allow holidaymakers to immerse themselves in the history of the town, along with dozens of beautiful churches in the area.
