Cornish Coasts Caravan and Camping Park, tucked away near Bude, is a friendly, family-run site that’s got a lovely laid-back vibe and welcomes all sorts of campers—tents, caravans, and motorhomes alike. The pitches are roomy, so you won’t be tripping over your neighbour’s guy ropes, and there’s a sense of space that’s rare in busier parks. Facilities are well tended, with modern loos and hot showers, plus a handy laundry, a bright playground for kids, and the sorts of little extras—like a shop for camping supplies and a cosy café—that make a stay easy and comfy. The staff are genuinely helpful, which gives the place a cheerful, easygoing feel, and you can’t beat those views out towards the sea—ideal for slipping straight into holiday mode.

The area around the campsite is a perfect launchpad for Cornish adventures. There’s Widemouth Bay’s sandy beach just down the road for swimming, surfing, or simply soaking up the sun. Walkers will love the South West Coast Path, packed with dramatic clifftop views and easy strolls for all ages. You can hire a bike and explore local lanes, or try kayaking on the coast’s sheltered coves. Further afield, Boscastle, Tintagel, and Crackington Haven are classic spots to potter about in, packed with craggy scenery and tales of local legends. So whether you’re after a lazy afternoon with the waves, a hearty coastal walk, or a bit of gentle sightseeing, you’re perfectly placed to take your pick.
