  • 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 bathroom 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.

What customers say

Guests rave about friendly owners, peaceful vibes, and cleanliness. Beautifully kept park with space to roam, perfect for dog walkers (enclosed field!). Fishing lakes are a hit with great catches. Amenities like hot showers are spotless. A small kids' play area is noted, but the overall experience is overwhelmingly positive with a lovely country feel and quiet surroundings.

 Angela T. 5 reviews

Powered cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite

Liked spacious pitch, with good views . peaceful site . great fishing in both well stocked lakes £8.00 per day ideal for beginners and any ones who wants to catch all day mainly 5lb-8lb assortment easy access and plenty of space even for pole fishermen. All fish where in great condition very peaceful location great for a chilled holiday and relaxing. great for star gazing even saw a comet. If you want to go out and about you will need your car as a rural location

Disliked I was unfortunate and had bad weather for a few days

Recommend to friends Visit again

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.
