We were lucky enough to get to spend a glorious week in Bude, with family, over the August Bank Holiday. As we crammed so much in I thought I’d share what we got up to in a series of shorter posts.
Bude is a real favourite of ours. Over the years we’ve stayed in the caravan, pitched our tent, rented cottages, and more recently enjoyed a few days with my sister, Sarah, and her partner Mark. The last time we were here was two years ago, when we combined a stay in Bude with a trip to Ilfracombe for a wedding.
This time round, we stayed with Sarah and Mark again and Mum came along with us too. A few days later David, Alison and Bobby joined in the fun, staying in Mum and Dad’s touring caravan just outside of Bude at Wainhouse Corner.
The weather forecast was promising and we were really looking forward to spending quality time with family and revisiting all of our favourite haunts.
Our first full day started off with a wander around the wharf and down to the lock gates …

After a good mooch around town we had a pitstop with pasties in Bar 35 … which was a new experience for us. It’s a bar that doesn’t serve food … but they are very happy for you to have a drink and take your own food … which is exactly what we did.
The rest of the afternoon was spent chilling in Sarah and Mark’s garden before heading out somewhere we’d been wanting to try for ages …

It turned out to be a real treat and the perfect way to round off the very first day of our holiday.
