  • Family site within 30 minutes' drive of Bude's popular surfing beaches
  • A short drive from The Milky Way and The Big Sheep
  • Coarse fishing lakes, play area and pets' corner
Just look at those lush, lush lakes… anglers will be in fishy heaven at Thornbury Holiday Park. As will pretty much all sorts of guests whatever their age or holiday inclination: the park's a short drive from the sand and surf of Bude as well as within easy reach of all manner of Devon and Cornwall highlights... and is in splendid setting with spectacular countryside views all around; do see pics. This leafy and rightly popular family park, set across almost nine acres, has two well-stocked coarse fishing lakes for fisherfolk to cast off at. Kids are well sorted too, with an outdoor play area, loads of green space to run about in, and a pets' corner which the Thornbury team reckons is a must-see. Kids may also care to know that two family amusement parks (The Milky Way and The Big Sheep) are around half an hour's drive away… The park's excellently-maintained amenities include a launderette and a modern sanitary block with toilets and hot showers, both open 24 hours a day. Hen and duck eggs are available year round in the site's honesty box.

Liked Amazing stay. Lovely, clean caravan with everything you need for a break away.
Beautifully maintained site. Dog friendly on lead and there is an enclosed field to let them off.
Children 17, 14 & 10. Small park on site which is plenty.
Thank you 😊

Liked Tranquility. Beautiful location. Cleanliness and orderliness. Level, well drained pitch. Great communication from Lisa

Disliked Nothing at all, however our stay would have been even better if there had been a drying rack in the laundry and a small waste bin in the washing up area

Excellent site with clean facillities and a warm welcome.

Powered concrete and grass caravan site

Liked This site is beautifully remote, a few pitches with electric hook up, loved the feel of it as soon as we arrived, it’s quiet, with a beautiful green, trees, lake, chickens wandering around and rabbits, feel revived after just one night, despite the rain it’s well worth a visit, it will be even better when the sun shines - we will return 😀

Local attractions

Stay close to base or head out on a day trip around Devon and Cornwall: there's enough to do around here to keep you busy for weeks. A 25-minute drive just over the Cornish border will land you at the three spectacular sandy beaches of Bude (Summerleaze, Crooklets and Sandy Mouth), famed particularly for their surfing but also a top spot for sea fishing and for family sandy days. A grassy play park is behind Bude's tourist information centre if you're in town with the kids, and a splendid pirate play area is at Crooklets beach. If you're feeling especially energetic (and aren't on hol with kids), take the South West Coast Path from Bude for a hike of almost 10 miles to Crackington Haven, or – strong legs and disposition very much required – the 15 or so miles from Bude to Hartland Quay. For gentler strolls (if you're on hol with the kids), take the easy saunters along the towpath of the Bude Canal, or get cracking on the Bude Mystery Treasure Trail following the canal to the RNLI Lifeboat House via Bude Castle. Other top spots include the privately owned village of Clovelly (40 minutes' drive); the Museum of Witchcraft at Boscastle (45 minutes), and swashbuckling with King Arthur's lot at Tintagel, 55 minutes away.
