This was the second time we've visited Ruda, but the first time in our bell tent. It has been a wet weekend in June and we've had to manage with 5 small boys ((one borrrowed) yet we have had fun and relaxed. The thing about Ruda is the staff are great, happy and helpful. Chatty, but not intrusive. Wayne in... More

We visited Ruda a couple of years ago, we found it all a little stressful as we had 18 month old twins with us at the time, the location and site was brilliant so we decided a return trip this year. The Caravan was Brand new and fantastic through out (Although single beds a little narrow for young children), The... More

We love Croyde but had never been to Ruda before,we were not disappointed. Its not on the Butlins scale but its small, friendly and has a lovely 'vibe'. Our lodge was outstanding, spacious, clean and comfortable and in a quiet and picturesque spot. We had a problem with ants trying to invade us and when it was reported, someone came... More

We spent 5 days here in a caravan. The negatives - the windows were drafty, there were ants but they were quickly sorted when we complained, the grill and oven didn't work very well, the. Floors and sofas were sandy when we arrived like they needed a better Hoover but to be fair we filled it with sand again very... More

Ruda is the third Parkdean park we've stayed in and the best so far. Our basic caravan had sea views and was clean, spacious and comfortable. All the staff were friendly and welcoming and the facilities were excellent, especially the pool. No good if you want to swim lengths as it's a fun pool but with 2 small children this... More

Booked with Sun holiday deal, fabulous location, little one loved it all, we did get charged first day for son to enter pool even though he's only 9mths old, but following two days he was free. Caravan was basic and we were unable to upgrade so very glad we took portable radiator with us as no double glazing or central... More

Fab location, good amenities, excellent pool, nice food,overall very nice, would recommend for families as this makes an ideal base for exploring the North Devon coast. Accomodation is basic but clean and tidy and well layed out to maximise space, upgrading would be a possibility next time

As an adult holidaying with another adult this park would not appeal to me, however, as an adult holidaying with a small child it really hit the spot. This is our second stay on Croyde Burrows (in our own touring caravan) and we will no doubt return again. The Croyde area is great for young children. There is a sandy... More

I can't fault ruda holiday park, the caravans are really clean and modern, sea views and close to a superb beach! Great customer care. The entertainment is hit and miss however it works for an easy night in. Great surfing hire on site
