Enjoy a little local hospitality when you head out and about

There’s always plenty to do in the local area – whether it’s agricultural shows or music festivals, there really is something for everyone of all ages. To keep you up to date with some of the best things to add to your itinerary it’s always worth checking out the event guide provided by our local tourist information centre at Bude…

If you're on holiday during one of the agricultural shows then they're worth visiting

The South West is home to many agricultural shows and these can be a great day out for all of the family. The Royal Cornwall Show is the showpiece event of the agricultural summer season and is held in Wadebridge in early June. Camelford Agricultural Show is our local event and is held in August – when the weather is hopefully warm and sunny!

Get in the mood with some of our local music events and festivals

If you’re a fan of folk music then you’re in luck – the Bude and Stratton Folk Festival is held in May each year and you can also enjoy  the Cornwall Folk Festival (held in Wadebridge) if visiting in August. Fan of jazz? The Bude Jazz Festival is a great week of music for all.

If you love your food and drink then our local markets and places to eat are a must-do

Cornwall is home to fantastic local produce and incredible chefs and artisan producers with the skills to turn it into something even better! After working up an appetite exploring, see what delicious treats you can find at one of our many local food markets and quirky independent eateries.
