Hi. We're planning a camping trip for Whitsun week and thought we'd head to Bude and visit family. We're looking for a clean, scenic, family friendly site in the nearby area. Ideally, not too big and loud. Our daughters are 11 and 12. We'll probably spend most of the time on the beach - as long as the weather's good. Somewhere where the pitches are good (grassed), there's a shop on-site, clean toliets/showers. Anybody recomend anywhere? Let us know why it's so good please. Many thanks.

Neil

Hi Neil

We live in Bude and although we've not stayed on any of our 'local' sites we have had friends and family down who have tested out the majority of them.  In my view the best site around here is Wooda Farm as suggested by POWs.

Where ever you stay enjoy our lovely area!

Penny, thank you for your recommendation, we'll take a look at Hedley Wood. You mention Dog Meadow - is it full of dogs and subsequent additions? If we go for it, where would you suggest we request for our grass camping pitch? Electricity isn't crucial.

POWs/Kernow,

Sounds like Wooda Farm Park comes highly recommended. We'll look at it tonight. Really appreciate your help.

Thanks

Neil

Another vote for Wooda here.

We have booked to go to Wooda Whitsun week so may see you there.

Cheers

Yet more votes for Wooda. I've sent them an email. Checking on availability. Thanks for all your help. If we go Donna, might do, what were you thinking? Who's in your party?

Angie, I'll take a look at Willow Valley. Have you stayed there?

Another thought. The John Fowler site at Widemouth Bay - a couple of miles south of Bude - seems to be offering great internet deals at the moment. 60% off usual prices. I popped in our dates - 8 nights over Whitsun - and it was £102 all in. that includes pitch, facilities, entertainment, indoor pool etc. Anybody stayed there? We've passed it in the car and it's in a beautiful spot high on the cliff. Seems like a good deal for a busy week. Can't see Wooda - or anybody - can compete with that. Mind you, is that because it's a little...better be careful...and diplomatic (apologies) chavvy?

I reckon you could be right!  My parents stayed there in a bungalow, it was ok but very hilly I believe.  Wooda was certainly not chavvy.
