Around Bude.
Bude is a surf town on Cornwall's far north coast, with Summerleaze beach, a tidal sea pool and a historic canal, and it feels a long way from Cornwall's main roads. Holiday lets, caravan parks and retirees shape the market, and summer visitors swell the town considerably. Trades serve a wide rural area stretching into Devon. A business here should cover Stratton, Poughill and the coastal villages, and hospitality needs clear seasonal opening details and online booking.
Camelford (16 miles), Launceston (16 miles) and Callington (25 miles) are the nearest in the same council area. Across the boundary into the next council area, Holsworthy (9 miles) is also close. A longer drive takes in Great Torrington (19 miles), Bideford (20 miles), Northam (20 miles) and Okehampton (25 miles). Naming the towns you actually cover tells people straight away whether you will come to them.
Stratton, Flexbury, Poughill, Widemouth Bay, Kilkhampton, Marhamchurch and Bush: if you work in particular parts of Bude, those names belong on the site.
Bude addresses fall in the EX postcode area, about 45 miles west of Exeter, where we are based.
