Epic sunsets, dramatic waves and plenty of nearby attractions make Bude the perfect pick for a North Cornwall getaway. The seaside town is one of the best spots for surfing in the South West thanks to several miles of golden sand beaches and a handful of excellent surf schools. Prefer to keep your feet firmly on the sand? Sunnier days are well-spent at pretty Summerleaze Beach or Crooklets Beach. You could also enjoy a dip in the Bude Sea Pool which overlooks the ocean or hike along the South West Coast Path to Widemouth Bay. Bude is additionally well-placed for day trips to Cornwall’s most famous heritage sites, including the enchanting medieval Tintagel Castle and the pretty port town of Padstow.
Bude is surrounded by traditional Cornish villages, such as Kilkhampton and the coastal Crackington Haven, which are all well worth a visit. Visiting during rainy weather? You’ll spot several indoor attractions at the heart of the town to help keep you entertained. Spend a morning browsing Bude’s bounty of independent shops or pop into the elegant Castle Bude to view its local history exhibitions and art gallery.
Waking up to sea vistas is made easy with our collection of breathtaking Bude holiday cottages. Find something small and cosy for a romantic couples’ escape or book one of our bigger barn conversions for the entire family. You’ll find options with plenty of luxe extras too — think bubbling hot tubs, roaring fireplaces and unrivalled beach views.
