  • Family and couples' site on the Devon/Cornwall border
  • A mile and a half from Bude and its beaches
  • Golf, sports barn, farmyard animals and nature trails
'In the countryside, by the sea' is how the Colwill clan describe their site Wooda Farm Holiday Park on the Devon/Cornwall border, which will sound pretty perfect to those who sometimes dither between both as a location for their holiday… Wooda is a park for families and couples, run by the Colwills since 1975, with lush views of the Cornish coastline and the countryside, and loads to do for time spent on site, like pitch and putt, a sports barn with fitness suite and badminton, and activities like archery and tennis in school holidays. Want to take things a tad more easily? Wander and wildlife watch around Wooda Farm's 40 acres of parkland or take a book to the park gardens. The kids will likely want to meet the four pygmy goats, chickens and lambs that live on the farm, and when (if) they finally tire of that, they can roam among the woodland paths and nature trails or hang out in the games and TV room. For the under-fives, bouncing around the toddlers' playroom (with Wendy house, slide, bean bags, ride-on toys and a new soft play area) should be a bit of a hit. The Wooda Farm amenities – three shower and toilet blocks with hairdryers and sockets, disabled facilities, undercover dishwashing sinks, campers' kitchen and a washing point for wetsuits – are excellently maintained, and the park also has a well-stocked licensed shop, a launderette and wifi. Plenty of picks for food are on hand too, with home-cooked meals (and plenty of picks for beer and wine) on hand in The Yard – Coffee, Bar & Kitchen. This is alongside a variety of local pop-up food vans that attend on various evenings and takeaway food in The Lodge. Bringing the pooch? There's even a special shower for mucky pups who've been running around the extensive dog walking area.

Glyn D.

Upper Meadow non-electric grass tent or motorhome pitch

Liked Exceptional facilities, very well maintained and thought out, on site shop was very reasonable prices, the bar area is very good, staff helpful and friendly

Disliked The only complaint I have is that I think £12.50 for hook up is too expensive, that equates to over 50kw at current prices. We were on a non electric pitch but had a battery issue so had to move to a pitch with hookup. We were in a camper and I doubt if we used 1kw, I know some of the big motor homes can use a lot of electricity, so maybe have a tariff based on van type or on usage? You can’t argue that it pays for the facilities as not every one uses the hook up.

A welcoming, pristine, active & friendly site, lots on offer- Go there

Caroline G.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked We received a warm and informative welcome at reception. Lots of space to park whilst getting booked in. Our pitch had all that we had pre requested which was fab. The facilities block was amazing 10/10, and I made use of the really good laundry services too. Not obvious how to pay by card as the card reader is tucked around the corner near the ironing board, a little sign would be helpful as others were having the same issue locating it.
We enjoyed an evening of live music from the sea shanty group consisting of guys from the RNLI . Really entertaining. Had a couple of cocktails and drinks from the bar during our stay. We didn't have any food due to food intolerances but it seemed very popular and smelt good. There is a good shortcut footpath to use on the perimeter of the field opposite the gates and this takes you into Bude avoiding having to walk in the road. Mostly downhill, but the opposite on the return trip, there is a pub on the way down which looked inviting and popular. The site was extremely well maintained and rhododendrons of various colours dotted around. The dog exercise field was generous and includes a few agility apparatus. Lovely walks on site through the woods. An amazing five days, a good base for our 5 days here and we would definitely return in the future.

Disliked The limited hours the coffee shop was open, there were occasions when we would have enjoyed a coffee but were unable. Someone had gone out and left their dog in one of the static accommodations and it cried a lot, not the fault of the site, but it did disturb the peace of the afternoon. I would like to think management will have picked up on this and had a word for the future. It doesn't seem to be the type of site to take any nonsense, evidenenced by the neat and tidy premises and efficient staff.

Absolutely everything. Lots for everyone to do, and lots of availability to…

Upper Meadow electric grass touring pitch

Liked Absolutely everything. Lots for everyone to do, and lots of availability to do it when we visited ( end of June). Staff very helpful and two minutes from Bude beach.

Disliked The crepe van not staying until advertised time!

From the manager: Dear Susan,

Thank you for leaving such a lovely review following your stay as we appreciate all the great comments that you have made regarding the park and location, the facilities we have to offer and of our staff.

I am however sorry to read that the food van offering crepes did not stay on the park for the duration advertised. This was an outside company and I will therefore pass your feedback onto the food and beverage manager regarding this.

We hope to welcome you back to Wooda in the near future.

Kind Regards,

Electric grass touring pitch

Liked Really good size pitches,shower blocks really very nice,good dog walking area and on site faclities.
Reception ladies really good.

Disliked The only negative was yes the bus stops outside but only runs mon fri 3 times a day.

From the manager: Dear Paul,

Thank you for kindly taking the time to leave a review as we appreciate the lovely comments that you made following your stay.

The bus service that stops at Wooda is run by the Go Cornwall Bus company and unfortunately the service and timetable set by them is beyond our control Guests who wish to go into Bude by bus on a Saturday can however catch a bus in Poughill which is a 10 minute walk from the park.

We hope to welcome you back to Wooda in the future.

From the manager: Thank you for kindly leaving your feedback following your recent stay as we appreciate the comments that you have made regarding the park.

Bubbles P.

Upper Meadow electric grass touring pitch

Liked We camped at this site and WOW! The facilities were spotless, there seemed to be a cleaner in the shower block every other time I went in. The site itself was beautifully and thoughtfully done. Check in was very smooth and you can tell this site is the owners passion. There was a big kids play area, bar, gift shop, golf, tennis and more.

Sally B.

Upper Meadow non-electric grass tent or motorhome pitch

Liked The site was impeccably clean and tidy, shower block luxurious! We had booked to stay in the field but on arrival the lovely lady on reception informed us that there was a very large group camped all around the field and offered an upgrade at no extra cost to ensure we had a peaceful stay. This was most appreciated and we had an amazing stay. Amazing site- we will be back again very soon!!

Disliked Having to leave!!

Lee N.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Good sized pitches, plenty of onsite walks for the dog, facilities were excellent and very well maintained. Nice little shop to get your basics, if you need more there's a Lidl, Morrisons and Sainsbury's less than 10 minutes away.

Disliked Activities always seemed to be booked or unavailable, bar was only open on the weekend.

From the manager: Dear Lee,

Thank you for taking the time to submit a review following your stay on one of our hardstanding pitches with electric as we appreciate the lovely comments that you have made regarding the park & the facilities that we have to offer, your pitch and our onsite farm shop.

Following the fire last year, our main bar is due to re-open very shortly and has been re-branded and will be known as ‘Moo & Brew’ (formally The Courtyard Bar & Grill). This will also have an exciting new menu and on the nights that food is not being served there will be pop up food vans on site which have been extremely popular with our guests. The temporary bar will then close and the opening hours for Moo & Brew will increase.

I am sorry that you were unable to book any of the activities during your stay. Pitch & Putt is available throughout the day and does not need to be pre-booked, but it is advisable to book the gym, tennis or badminton court in advance to avoid disappointment.in our peak times.

We look forward to welcoming you back to Wooda.

Kind Regards,


Wooda Farm Holiday Park

Local attractions

Take to the surf at Bude's Crooklets beach (the Wooda Farm team can arrange surf lessons nearby or canoeing on Bude's canal), Widemouth Bay within three miles and Crackington Haven, eight miles away from Bude. If you fancy a walk, it's 10 miles along the South West Coast Path from Bude Canal to Crackington Haven – look out for Dartmoor tors at the Tower of the Winds storm tower – and from there further south to Boscastle, Tintagel and Port Isaac. Too tough? Turn left outside the park for the three-mile walk via Poughill village and a cream tea. Within 20 to 50 minutes' drive south along the coast, explorers will reach day trips' worth of seaside towns, like Tintagel and its castle, within 25 minutes, and the 14th-century fishing village Port Isaac 40 minutes away.
