Date of Visit: August 2011 Unit:  Tent
Reviewer: Sarg75 2 reviews from this member

 We have visited this campsite twice now and it is our favourite one. The facilities are spotless and despite visiting during peak season, we never queued for the toilets or showers.

There are family bathrooms available which you can share with one or two other families. There are 2 large fields for tents and you can choose where you would like to pitch.

This suits us perfectly as our tent is large and we like to be tucked away somewhere. The bar serves good food and drink and there is a games room with pool and table tennis.

There is also a snack bar which sells all sorts, including burgers, fish and chips and pizza. Always handy!

There are tractor rides for children around the campsite too which was a huge hit with our 2 sons.

The site is a short drive from the centre of Bude and well placed to visit both Devon and Cornwall.

We have stayed on several sites over the years and this one beats them all hands down! We are planning another visit again soon.

 Just stayed for the first week of August at Wooda. Hubby booked as was recommended and he trusted the 5 star rating. But. I was bitterly disappointed, as was hubby. Will list the pros and cons here they are

Pros.

Possibly the best dog exercise area we have ever visited. Huge field with a mown track around the edge so owners, or those with elderly or small dogs can keep feet dry. Secure fenced area with kissing gate and two dogs poop bins.

Take Away served very good food and fast and good value

Friendly staff at reception

Cons.

Pitch we were given, full service P20, was way too short for a twin axle van, we weren't given any alternative. Couldn't put up fall size awning as brick 'structure' with drain and tap made it impossible so small awning, thank goodness we brought it, had to go up. Thankfully on the last morning the people opposite had gone and we were able to drive onto their pitch to hitch up

Pitch P20, was only a hedge away from the play area. I don't mind children at all but when the screaming goes on from 8 in the morning till gone 11 at night with no let up I was frazzled ! The sign says no unaccompanied under 8's. We saw plenty.

Shower blocks though plentiful weren't all that spotless. Being a thoughtful 'mopper' I was faced on the first morning with a filthy mop in a bucket with even more filthy water. Day two mop had vanished. Day 6 a new one appeared !

Departure was by 10. 30 am on final day, not a problem except they were allowing arrivals from 10am ! Chaos at the reception area where we couldn't even exit with the van.

Wifi, bought for a week £15 did not work for more than the first day. So we complained and had a 50 per cent refund

We wont stay at Wooda again because of the noise and the pitch sizes and frankly it seemed too big and cramped everywhere.

Reviewer: Simonc0801 1 review from this member

 Had stayed on site may times before but not been back in 3 years. Lovely to find the site still the same great standard for camping and touring. The site is always clean and tidy and nice landscaping, toilets and showers are plenty and nice and hot. The shop has all you can need and all you forgot. Staff very friendly and helpful and plenty of local knowledge.

Children are nice and safe and a great playground and open space to play in. Teens have got a pool and table tennis room to keep them happy.

I don't have a dog but can see they are catered for with there own walking field.

Hidden gems are the forest walk and the fishing lake at the bottom, there's also a small gym and badminton if you are feeling fit.

Now what is the treat of the site the bar, nice small bar at the bottom with local beers/ciders but the food is excellent, all prepared fresh, large portions and delicious, we ate there more then the tent cooker, well it was holiday.

Bude is about 11/2 miles away great beaches and canal, nice seaside town we didn't venture further than that for the week

I always try to be constructive in reviews and would like to put some bad points but I cannot for this site, give it a try you will not be disappointed.

Reviewer: StevieB72 6 reviews from this member

 Just had a fantastic week at this site with great weather.

We stayed on a 'fully serviced' pitch besides the children's play area.

It was the first week of the school summer holidays and to be fair, the site was only about 70% full.

The site has its own shop which is well stocked with all essentials and fairly reasonably priced.

It has a takeaway facility offering fish & chips, burgers and pizza's. Or they also have their own bar / restaurant (can not comment further as we did not go inside on this occasions).

You'll be happy to hear that the push buttons on these showers last more than the annoying 8s or so, you seem to get at least 40 - 60s (wasn't timing, but it was good not having to push the thing that often).

The gents always seemed clean although the lighting in both the toilet and shower cubicles seemed very dim and could possibly be improved. My wife commented on the ladies showers and felt this needed more attention to cleaning (ladies hair caught up in the plastic shower mats) and again poor lighting within the blocks.

Our pitch was of a good size, and the site kept remarkably clean and tidy with the buzzing of a ride on mower as soon as a pitch was vacated.

We have 5 & 6 yr old sons who thoroughly enjoyed there time and were very said to leave at the end of the week.

The site is only about 2 miles from Bude itself which has some fantastic beaches as well and lovely places to visit like Port Isaac, Boscastle, Padstow. Nearest supermarket is Morrisons which is about 1. 5 miles from site.

All in all we had a fantastic time and will be hopefully heading back next year.

Our only negative comment for the site is that it does not have a swimming pool, but we knew this when booking.

 Just had fantastic week at Wooda, the site has to be the best we've ever been on, and we've been camping a long time! It was clean, tidy, well landscaped.

Staff were helpful whatever we needed to know. Food from takeaway was excellent and reasonable. We never ate in, but heard no complaints. Very quiet at night.

Loads of hot water, very good free showers, never had to queue all week( although not summer hols at time).

Families with children were well catered for with excellent playground. Will definitely go back again!

Reviewer: Scarab15 3 reviews from this member

 Just got back from wooda (05/08/11), well thought out site with very high standards. Shop very well stocked and lots of thought gone into what they stock. The pub is very nice (get in early) gets very busy. We had meals on 4 occasions and could not fault the food.

We did the woodland walks which were nice. There is a nice play area for the kids with lots of space for ball games only problem was 10-11 at night the play ground seemed to be taken over by some very noisy youths so if you had a pitch backing onto the play ground (you would need hear plugs).

The shower blocks were clean most of the time and there was never any waiting for the showers, Power Showers, water was always hot, they never lost any water pressure(after a day on beach you did not want to get out of the showers) great.

Our pitch E3 lovely and wide, only good thing to say. We have a hartford L with extension (first time we have used it)we had the tent as far back as we could and after we had put it up with the extension, we had less than 1/2 meter of space to the tarmac road.

The spaces opposite were also very close (you felt like you were very enclosed)how these people with caravans got in I do not know. Getting cars in and out 10 point turns over other peoples pitches.

The overflow fields seem like a better idea if we go again (some electric pitches available). Dog lovers will love this site, dogs everywhere,

Overall: not a bad site, not what I would call relaxing with cars / caravans / motor homes / tractors / diggers / sainsburys delivery van / bikes all going up and down from 7am in front of the tent and behind our bed rooms.

Bude nice place to visit, best beach widemouth bay. Morrisons + sainsburys for shopping and a boot sale near morrisons on a sunday and Thursday (free entry)the farmers market in bude on a Friday (not much there) rowing boats available great for the kids for a an hour.

 Stayed here for a long weekend in July. When I booked I was informed that there was only room in the overflow field, this was not surprising as it was the summer holidays.

We arrived on site at 7. 30pm a little later than planned and were happy to find reception still open and expecting us. We were given the choice of both overflow fields and told to pitch where we were happy, but to keep a reasonable distance from others.

This suited us fine as we were after a relaxing weekend just me and my partner. We settled on pitching in overflow field 2 as it was closer to the facilities.

We had loads of options of where to pitch and decided on a space in the corner of the field. It was disappointing on Saturday afternoon to return to find a noisy family had arrived and pitched approx a meter away from our tent.

There was plenty of space in the whole field so this was inconsiderate and the large open space encouraged ball games in the field despite there being a play area. Unfortunately there are no pitches marked out in this field so be warned that people may pitch close!

That aside the toilet block is good quality, considering how busy the site was I didn't wait for a shower once. The showers are nice and big and designed so your clothes don't get wet! There were 2 free hair dryers.

There is a campers kitchen which has 3 washing up sinks, microwave, freezer and plugs so you can charge your phone whilst washing up. We thought this was a great set up.

The shop was open daily from 8am until about 8pm and sold the basics at reasonable prices - there is also a Morrisons about a 10min drive away.

Bude is very close and has plenty of shops.

We also spent one afternoon at the fishing lake and caught some fish. It is a bit of a walk from the main accommodation areas so best to take plenty of food and drink with you.

Other than the lack of privacy with our pitch we thought this was one of the best sites we have stayed at and the staff are very helpful. We will stay again, but next time on a booked pitch!

Reviewer: Ghentjo 5 reviews from this member

 We stayed for 6 nights at this site. The views, service and cleanliness were second to none. The shower block was clean and warm with big cubicles and loads of hot water with powerful showers.

Although we had no children with us the playground was great. The views were fantastic from all pitches, which are all spacious.

The pitch and putt was fun and there is a pub and takeaway on site should you need it.

Closeby is Widemouth Bay. Unmissable for the views, walks and to watch the surfers. Morrisons, Sainsburys and the Coop are the supermarkets in Bude/Stratton none of which are more than 10 mins by car.

Overall a superb place to stay and we will definitely return.

 This is probably the best site that we have ever visited.

The grounds are immaculately maintained, The toilets & shower facilities are excellent, They were always clean & we never had to queue, granted we did go in June when the kids were still at school, and the camp was about 50% full

The fishing is great, There are some good walks on the site as well. The pitch & putt is good fun.

There is a sea view from a lot of pitches on site,

Bude is about a 10 minute drive away.

There is a large morrisons about 5 minutes away

 We have just returned from a fantastic week camping at Wooda. We haven't visited lots of sites however we can tell this will probably take some beating.

Our pitch, E79, was in a sheltered location in a quiet corner of the site, with hedges along two sides. Our only criticism would be that the pitch was not level and was in complete shade after about 5pm. However, ours seemed to the only pitch with this problem so next time we will just pick a different pitch further up the site.

The toilet block was very clean and fairly modern. The showers are the push type but you get a good 30 seconds per push so plenty of time. There are two main toilet and shower blocks, one on each side of the site and a third smaller block attached to the side of the shop/reception. All were clean and similar in design. There are also two large undercover washing up areas, a wetsuit washing area and family bathrooms available to hire.

The on site takeaway was good, selling the usual fish, chips, burgers and pizzas as well as salads and jacket potatoes. It was reasonably priced and very tasty. We also had take out from Bude Tandori (Indian) and Chungs (Chinese) both of which we would recommend. We did not eat or drink at the courtyard bar as we had our dog with us who couldn't go inside the bar. There is a dog field on site where they can run off the lead as it is fenced in.

The shop was well stocked, we visited every morning to buy a pint of milk and a carton of juice. The staff were also very friendly. The lady in reception recommended local places to eat and even printed us off a menu. We had a BBQ one night and went to reception to ask for bricks so as not to burn the grass. They had run out as it was a lovely evening and they had given them all out already. However, 5 minutes later a man who we believe was the owner arrived in his truck with some bricks he had fetched for us especially.

Overall we had a fantastic week, we only returned home today and already we are looking to book our next stay at Wooda.

Reviewer: V1a3w 21 reviews from this member

 Fabulous site. I had previously discounted this site as it looked to be too commercial & big for my taste, however needing only one night at short notice I called & was told they had vacancies, arriving 10 mins.

Later I was warmly & efficiently welcomed & the cost for one night - no electric- was only £8 a real bargain.

There was plenty of hot water & for once more shower cubicles than toilets!

Bude is a pleasant little town with all the normal gifty shops, I was there for the folk festival which was excellent. 


Date of Visit: April 2011 Unit:  Static
Reviewer: Kiml71 1 review from this member

 Wooda is a great family friendly, value for money camping site. The welcome was warm and friendly. The static caravan was clean, comfortable and well kitted out. The camp site's shop was well stocked and reasonably priced. The reception area was well stocked with information on the local area and the staff were always happy to help with any questions. The camp facilities were well maintained with a great children's play area and free tractor rides for all. There was a lovely area for the children to meet some of the farm animals with goats and chickens so friendly you could stroke them.

The free Easter Egg hunt was a hit for young and old. Our family loved the woodland walk spending ages hunting in the trees and bushes for hidden Cornish Pixies.

As our stay was at the very beginning of the season the on site cafe/restaurant was not yet open which was a shame as the food available for take away was burger/sausage/pizza and chips. It would have been nice to have had some home cooked food (the menu displayed for later in the season looked very appetising), but this did not affect our holiday over all.

As the camp site was aimed towards families there was very little noise outside in the evenings which was useful when it came to bedtime for smaller children. It was also a safe place for the children to play outside as due to the layout of the caravans and pitches traffic was kept to a minimum.

In fact we enjoyed our stay so much we've booked a return visit for the end of the summer!

 Wooda is an excellent camp site, equipped and maintained to the very highest standard. We stayed for a short stay in one of the new 2011 static caravans (Holly).

Can say with full confidence that it was very, very good in all facets. Very comfortable, very good water pressure, immaculate appearance and good location.

Can highly recommend both the Caravan and Wooda.

Reviewer: Rootays 1 review from this member

 We stayed here at Wooda for two nights mid week in a motorhome which we hired for the first time just to see how the other half live haha. Bearing in mind the time of year, the site was maintained to a very high standard with the toilet blocks spotless and ample hot water. All pitches were very very tidy and this down to the ground staff always pottering about cutting lawns and general upkeeping. A slight niggle of mine is that when we arrived and paid for the two nights I was then told the bar was closed for the season, also the shop was closed until Saturday (we arrived Thursday),and the sports facility was also closed due to a wedding reception on sat. These are minor problems which could be solved by letting you know before you arrive( we had already called earlier) and hand over your hard earned cash.

Apart from this my overall view of the park is very nice and well maintained. Bude itself is very small and not to much going on there but still worth a walk down to from the park which takes around 30 mins. There is also a morrisons close by to which if your travelling in a caravan or motorhome is great for parking up in.

 Stayed over the bank holiday. It was quick, easy and very professional check-in. We loved the pitch we were given and were offered two alternatives should it be unsuitable.

The grounds were well tended. The facilities were excellent - hot showers, great washing up room and fab idea to have a campers kitchen with use of freezer and microwave.

We walked into Bude via the beautiful cliff top walk we were recommended by the receptionist. We had great meals at the Brendon Arms and really enjoyed being in Bude on Lifeboat day as the atmosphere was fab. Would love to return next year.
