What customers say
This charming, small site boasts stunning, sweeping views of Bude, with some guests loving the vistas from non-electric spots. You'll get a friendly greeting from owner John, and the facilities, including spotless toilets and showers, are immaculate. Easy access and level, marked pitches are great. Walks to Bude and pubs are a must! Some found the limited facilities (1 shower, 2 toilets) tight for longer stays, and a dishwashing sink would be nice. Great value for stopovers!

Fantastic views
Powered grass RV campsite
Liked Fantastic views. Warm welcome from owner on arrival. Well kept site. Footpaths straight from site.
Walk to pub in 20 mins and into Bude in approx an hour. In Bude is a large Sainsbury which I wasn't expecting.
For best views go for non electric.
All round good value for money.

Powered grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked That it was a small site, and that the owner was really attentive and cared about the site, and his guests. The view was amazing, and it was actually in a good location. Out of the busy town, but close enough to get some shopping done.
Disliked It only had one shower, and two toilets. Just not practical, although clean and maintained well. People were driving on and off the site late. Because of the size it can all be heard.

From the manager: Thank you for taking the time to leave your review. We’re glad you liked our campsite and location, and thankyou for choosing to stay with us at Mount Pleasant Camping :)
Sorry to hear that you had disturbance, our campsite rules are quiet after 10pm and we try our very best to ensure this is adhered to.
We are a very small pop up site with only 10 pitches and only have room for the facilities we have.
We do hope that our profile advert shows this clearly for everyone to see before booking, but we appreciate your comments and hope this helps future guests when deciding their choice of campsite :)
We are small and minimal but with lovely views and a relaxed setting.
Information and photos of the site can be found on Pitchup and on our own website.
Definitely will recommend it!
Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked Spectacular views, lovely pitch, plently of space, clearly divided, very clean shower and toilets, easy to find and alovely host whp greeted us on arrival. Highly recommend walking down to bude, it was the highlight of our stay! Definitely will come back.
Disliked Not disliked however if we were to stay longer then I’d say the shower would be an issue, water runs for approximately 15 seconds, 5seconds cold, 5 warm and 5 hot… it’s tricky but doable.

Ticks all the boxes for campers and motorhomers.
Powered grass RV campsite
Liked Easy access to site, large flat grass pitches, great views over the Bude coastline, washing /bathroom facilities very close by. Very small and simple site, but that is reflected in the very reasonable cost. Perfect for stopovers.
Disliked Needs an extra toilet /bathroom.
