Atlantic Camping

Polubione The actual site was lovely…well maintained gardens and a nice location.

Niepolubione Very basic facilities…awful toilets with minimal privacy…washing up facilities poorly maintained… no plugs or drainage pipes & muddy under foot and no shelter if it rained.
Showers were prior with nowhere to put dry clothing/ towel etc
The “walk” into Bude was initially well signed but only part way…then nothing!

Polubione Pitch was tidy, site overall clean.

Niepolubione Poorly organised.
Pitches not clear,
Packed in too tightly and half the site was empty.

Polubione The site itself was very pretty and well maintained. The site was off the main A39 road however we could not hear the traffic from the pitches so that wasn’t an issue. It had a reception and basic wash / toilet facilities, a washing up area and laundry facilities, for the cost of the pitch compared to other sites in the area it was very reasonably priced and ideal for a base to visit Cornwall. The site was not busy at all considering it was August and the pitches were a decent size. The staff were friendly and helpful. We especially liked the park and ride which was a two minute walk from the site or we could do the 20 minute walk into Bude along the well marked out route along the paths and river.

Niepolubione As others have mentioned the toilets and showers are very basic and could do with modernising but they were useable and were clean and for the cost of the pitch compared to other sites it was a small compromise.

Polubione The site was lovely and well maintained.

Niepolubione The customer service wasn't friendly and the facilities were not clean, which was a shame as they pitch and field was lovely.

Polubione The peace! It was a lovely peaceful site. All facilities were clean and functional
We'll definitely consider staying again. Good WiFi as not much phone signal.

Niepolubione The teen wasn't impressed at lack of phone signal but the rest of us didnt mind

Polubione The grounds of the campsite were very well kept and clean. Pitches were a good size. Good location for getting into Bude and to the beach.

Niepolubione The need to have to go to reception to use the freezer for our ice packs as it governs our day. One staff member told us we needed to pay to use the freezer which was not stated when booking the campsite and we have never had this before at any campsite however this was not told to us when we first put them in the freezer when another member of staff was on the desk so I feel there needs to be better communication between staff members on the front desk as we were being told different things. Facilities are very basic which wasn’t an issue as such but we felt the toilet block at the bottom was much better quality than the toilet block up the top of the field.

Od administratora: Thank you for your feedback — we’re pleased you appreciated the well-kept grounds and the convenient location.

We’d like to clarify a couple of points for future guests:
We do allow campers to store ice packs in our freezer, and we simply ask for a small donation to the RNLI — a charity we support. This is not a commercial charge, and it’s entirely voluntary for normal use.

In this case, the level of usage was unusually high and, after discussion, we asked for a higher donation to reflect that. We’re sorry if this wasn’t made clear from the outset — we’ve reminded staff to communicate this consistently.

Regarding the facilities: the upper and lower toilet blocks differ slightly due to the layout of the site, but both are cleaned thoroughly and regularly maintained.

Thanks again for your visit, and we wish you happy camping wherever you go next.

Polubione I’m struggling…

Niepolubione The sloping pitches, the dirty toilets and showers, the position of the campsite to Bude (a horrible and dangerous walk on a busy road), the early closure of reception, the bin men arriving at 07:41am, our wake up call…

Od administratora: We’re disappointed to read this review, especially as many of the claims are inaccurate and unfair.

You arrived by bicycle with a small tent for one night stay and were allocated Pitch 10 — which is completely flat. The grounds at Atlantic Camping are gently sloping overall, accommodating you and your small tent on pitch 10 had no issues.

The toilets and showers are basic but cleaned several times daily, and many guests comment positively on their cleanliness. Your suggestion is seen as wilful and exaggerated.

Your description of the walk into Bude as “dangerous” is simply untrue. There is a dedicated footpath and pavement the entire way into town and the beaches. At no point are guests expected to walk on a busy road.

Regarding the bins: they are emptied once a week by an external contractor (Biffa), who services many locations across the area. The collection time is outside our control, but necessary for site cleanliness and hygiene.

Finally, our reception hours are clearly advertised in advance, and we remain available for assistance outside of those hours if needed.

We are always open to constructive feedback, but this review does not reflect the experience you actually had and misrepresents several key aspects of the site.

Polubione Location and facilities. Would definitely return

Polubione Ease of pitching up, facilities were great, quiet after 10pm, friendly and close to the beach. We will return.
