Widemouth Bay Caravan Park

View prices & book Last booked 4 hours ago 7.7 368 reviews

Countryside setting and family-friendly atmosphere

Coastal park set in over 50 acres of grounds
A short drive from the surf schools and beach at Bude
Free heated pool, free wifi, clubhouse, kids' club and bar

Free! The price of zilch is what you’ll pay to keep the kids happy at Widemouth Bay Caravan Park a few miles from Bude, which is bound to result in wide-mouthed grins for all concerned... This large and lively family park has kids’ clubs run by the cunning Foxy, free evening entertainment by the Stripey Coats, crazy golf to go loopy at and an indoor heated pool, which are also…free. As is the wifi in the clubhouse. Huzzah. Widemouth Bay Caravan Park’s location is also pretty smilesome: on a hilltop overlooking the Cornish countryside and the fab Widemouth Bay with its three miles of sand. There are over 50 acres to lose yourself in around the park and pretend you never have to go home, with the takeaway, well-stocked shop and tasty meals at the bar keeping you sorted for nosh and a launderette looking after the essentials. Looking for yet more things to do on site? Challenge the kids on the amusements or show them how to hustle on the pool table – letting them beat you should result in even more wide smiles…

Powered grass tent campsite

Liked Had a lovely stay at widemouth, the warden was very helpful arrived in the rain to find out we had lost a tent pole, the warden was very helpful and round us a spare. We was a group of 4 tents they had us pitched up next to each other with lots of space for the kids to play. The toilet blocks were very clean lovely warm showers. We all had a great weekend.

Disliked Didn't dislike anything, we didn't realise the swimming pool didn't have showers, keep your entertainment passes on you, we had to go back to get ours before they would let us into the entertainment.

Liked Clean loos

Disliked Hardstanding sites full of weeds, place looks a bit down at heel and unkempt. Hardstanding surface is poor grade loose stone that gets stuck to shoes and walked into caravan. Would not stay here again. Tent pitches are on boggy ground. Drainage seems to be an issue

Toilets and showers were cleaned regularly, staff was very helpful.

Liked We liked the location.

Disliked There was nothing to name as disliked, but there were no bells and whistles as such, very basic, very dated. My husband explained it as a quick save not a waitrose.

Disliked The pitch had quite a slope and we found the grey waste was difficult to empty as the enclosure was high, not at ground level.

Liked The location was good and nice views.

Disliked Access into the site was heavily pitted with pot holes and broken roads. Causing damage to vehicle. Pitches were on a slope, grass not cut, facilities too far away from the top pitches and coupe do with toilet/shower block at the top of the site

Local attractions

Widemouth Bay is where you’ll find the surf: if you’re new to launching yourself happily into the waves there are surf and bodyboarding schools dotted all around here and Bude, and Newquay is within 50 minutes' drive. Bude less than 10 minutes by car has a couple of excellent beaches: Summerleaze, to have a dip in the sea pool at the bottom of the cliffs and to bag a beach hut for hire so you can pretend for one fleeting afternoon that it’s your very own, and Crooklets, which you can reach by a short stroll from Summerleaze Down. Both beaches, and the sea pool at Summerleaze, are lifeguarded. The staff at Widemouth Bay Caravan Park recommends a car to see the best of Cornwall, but you won’t have very far to drive to reach most of the main hotspots: the Eden Project is about 50 minutes away, and Tintagel, legendary home of King Arthur and Merlin, is just along the coast.
