Efford Downs Campsite
Efford Downs Campsite
Efford Downs Campsite is a no-frills, back-to-basics hillside site on the outskirts of Bude in North Cornwall. Open pitches accommodate tents, campervans, and van conversions, with water, flushing toilets, and hot showers on site.
The campsite sits on a hill overlooking Bude town and its canal.
Its location is a key draw: Bude town centre is roughly a five-minute walk away, Summerleaze and Crooklets surfing beaches are within fifteen minutes on foot, and the site has direct access to the South West Coast Path.
The Bude Canal and Bude Seapool are also close by, making it a practical base for a car-free coastal holiday. Surf and camp packages are available through a partnership with a local surf academy.
