As the summer crowds begin to thin and the pace of life in Cornwall slows to a golden glow, September quietly steals the spotlight. With warm sea temperatures, longer evenings, and a calm atmosphere, this often-overlooked month offers all the best bits of summerโwithout the bustle.
Here at Wooda Farm Holiday Park in Bude, we believe September is one of the best times of year to visit Cornwall. Whether youโre planning a coupleโs retreat, a family break outside of term time, or a last-minute adventure before autumn sets in, hereโs why you should book a September escape to the coast.
September brings some of the most settled and sunny weather of the year in Cornwall. The sea is at its warmest, the skies stay clear well into the evening, and the coastal air is still deliciously mild.
While the official start of autumn might be creeping in, Cornwall holds onto its summer warmth just a little longerโperfect for beach days, scenic walks, and dining al fresco.
With the school holidays over, Cornwall in September becomes a haven for those seeking peace and quiet. Beaches like Summerleaze, Crooklets, and Widemouth Bay are less crowded, meaning youโll have more space to unwind, swim, or just soak in the scenery.
The South West Coast Path, which passes just above Wooda, becomes even more enjoyable this time of year. You can walk for miles along the clifftops, breathing in the sea air, with hardly another soul in sight.
One of the major perks of a September holiday is the greater choice and lower prices. Whether you’re after a last-minute stay or planning something special, we offer a range of accommodation options to suit every kind of guest.
Choose from:
With increased availability outside the school break, you can also enjoy a more peaceful experience across the parkโfrom leisurely breakfasts at The Lodge Takeaway to quieter moments in the woodland walk.
September isnโt just a time for quiet retreatsโitโs also time for WoodaFest, our exciting 50th anniversary event happening 12thโ14th September 2025.
This vibrant weekend will be bursting with entertainment, including:
WoodaFest is a true celebration of Wooda, our community, and our guestsโdesigned to be enjoyed by families, couples, and solo travellers alike. Itโs the perfect excuse for a September getaway with a little extra sparkle.
While summer may be ideal for families, September is perfect for couples or those looking for a quiet, grown-up break. The beaches are peaceful, the roads are less busy, and everything moves at a gentler pace.
Enjoy lazy mornings with a view, long lunches at local cafรฉs, and romantic sunset walks along the clifftops. Our Gwelva Hills Lodges and holiday homes make the ideal base for romantic retreatsโwith luxurious touches and coastal charm in every detail.
The light in September is truly magical. As the sun begins to set earlier in the evening, the Cornish skies explode in colour. Bude is one of the best places in Cornwall to watch the sunsetโespecially from the beach, the cliffs, or even your own private decking at Wooda.
Bring a blanket and a bottle of something special, and watch the sky transform into pinks, oranges, and purples. Thereโs no better way to end the day.
Without the holiday rush, it’s easier to explore the very best of Cornwall. From historic houses and gardens to quirky seaside towns and inland villages, youโll find fewer crowds and a more personal experience.

Thereโs something refreshing about choosing a September breakโit sets the tone for the autumn ahead. A chance to reset, recharge, and indulge in some Cornish comfort before the colder months arrive.
