No em va agradar The customer service wasn't friendly and the facilities were not clean, which was a shame as they pitch and field was lovely.

Em va agradar The peace! It was a lovely peaceful site. All facilities were clean and functional
We'll definitely consider staying again. Good WiFi as not much phone signal.

No em va agradar The teen wasn't impressed at lack of phone signal but the rest of us didnt mind

Em va agradar The grounds of the campsite were very well kept and clean. Pitches were a good size. Good location for getting into Bude and to the beach.

No em va agradar The need to have to go to reception to use the freezer for our ice packs as it governs our day. One staff member told us we needed to pay to use the freezer which was not stated when booking the campsite and we have never had this before at any campsite however this was not told to us when we first put them in the freezer when another member of staff was on the desk so I feel there needs to be better communication between staff members on the front desk as we were being told different things. Facilities are very basic which wasn’t an issue as such but we felt the toilet block at the bottom was much better quality than the toilet block up the top of the field.

Del gerent: Thank you for your feedback — we’re pleased you appreciated the well-kept grounds and the convenient location.

We’d like to clarify a couple of points for future guests:
We do allow campers to store ice packs in our freezer, and we simply ask for a small donation to the RNLI — a charity we support. This is not a commercial charge, and it’s entirely voluntary for normal use.

In this case, the level of usage was unusually high and, after discussion, we asked for a higher donation to reflect that. We’re sorry if this wasn’t made clear from the outset — we’ve reminded staff to communicate this consistently.

Regarding the facilities: the upper and lower toilet blocks differ slightly due to the layout of the site, but both are cleaned thoroughly and regularly maintained.

Thanks again for your visit, and we wish you happy camping wherever you go next.

Em va agradar I’m struggling…

No em va agradar The sloping pitches, the dirty toilets and showers, the position of the campsite to Bude (a horrible and dangerous walk on a busy road), the early closure of reception, the bin men arriving at 07:41am, our wake up call…

Del gerent: We’re disappointed to read this review, especially as many of the claims are inaccurate and unfair.

You arrived by bicycle with a small tent for one night stay and were allocated Pitch 10 — which is completely flat. The grounds at Atlantic Camping are gently sloping overall, accommodating you and your small tent on pitch 10 had no issues.

The toilets and showers are basic but cleaned several times daily, and many guests comment positively on their cleanliness. Your suggestion is seen as wilful and exaggerated.

Your description of the walk into Bude as “dangerous” is simply untrue. There is a dedicated footpath and pavement the entire way into town and the beaches. At no point are guests expected to walk on a busy road.

Regarding the bins: they are emptied once a week by an external contractor (Biffa), who services many locations across the area. The collection time is outside our control, but necessary for site cleanliness and hygiene.

Finally, our reception hours are clearly advertised in advance, and we remain available for assistance outside of those hours if needed.

We are always open to constructive feedback, but this review does not reflect the experience you actually had and misrepresents several key aspects of the site.

Em va agradar Ease of pitching up, facilities were great, quiet after 10pm, friendly and close to the beach. We will return.

Em va agradar Lovely looking site. The pitches are well kept and offer a nice level of privacy. Really close to Bude so beaches and town accessible.

No em va agradar Only complaint I have is that the lights in the toilets only stay on for about 10 seconds at a time. Trying to do what you need to do whilst simultaneously waving your arms like a lunatic to avoid sitting in the dark is not easy!

Em va agradar The site on the whole was lovely. Beautiful shrubs & plants. Walkable distance to bude shortcut via the campsite footpath & through the industrial park. Or the park & ride just across the road. Summer season only.Would be good to make improvements on the toilets/showers.

No em va agradar The showers & toilets are very basic. Plywood with galvanised roof. Gaps around doors. No hand drying, blowers or paper towels. Could do with improvement to bring it in keeping with the rest of the site. It would make such a difference. We stayed just the 1 night as we were passing through. On arrival we were told by the man in reception we were not allowed to empty our toilet cassette on our stay as we were only booked for 1 night & that they had to make some money! Not shown a map of the site on arrival. Just told our pitch number & left to find it.

Em va agradar Great location just off A39. Good sized pitch with planted areas between each pitch for good privacy. Very peaceful site. Nicely landscaped. EHU and water easily accessible.

No em va agradar Toilet and shower cabins need a bit of TLC. The door bolts are really rusty and hard to close. There are big gaps around some of the doors that make it possible to see into the cabins while you're in there. The toilet flushing buttons are broken on several of the toilets making them hard to flush. The level of cleanliness could be improved - quite dirty floors in some of the toilets, foliage growing in from the outside under the walls, lots of cobwebs.

Em va agradar The pitch size. The grounds are well looked after. Easy walk into Bude.

Em va agradar Fantastic staff and stunning pitch views

No em va agradar Although we enjoyed our stay, I wouldn't want to be here when it's really busy. It would feel quite a tight squeeze, and there didn't seem to be enough toilets and showers if the site was fully booked. There are walks directly from the site, but it's an extremely long walk to the beach.
