Bude is a little seaside resort community in north east Cornwall, England, in the civil parish of Bude-Stratton as well as at the mouth of the River Neet (additionally known in your area as the River Strat). It was occasionally previously called Bude Haven. It lies southwest of Stratton, south of Flexbury as well as Poughill, and north of Widemouth Bay and lies along the A3073 roadway off the A39. Bude is twinned with Ergué-Gabéric in Brittany, France. Bude's shore encounters Bude Bay in the Celtic Sea, part of the Atlantic Sea. The population of the civil parish can be discovered under Bude-Stratton. Its earlier significance was as a harbour, and then a resource of sea sand valuable for boosting the moorland soil. The Victorians favoured it as a watering place, as well as it was a preferred seaside destination in the 20th century. In the 1951 Cornwall quantity of The Buildings of England, Nikolaus Pevsner defined Bude as "Not an eye-catching harbour-town compared to others in Cornwall and also Devon", and also remains to say that the church is "unimportant".
