Who we are

The Church of St. Michael and All Angels built in 1834/5 by George Wightwick, was the gift of Sir Thomas Dyke Acland. The church reflects the history of the area which it serves, which had enjoyed a new prosperity with the cutting of the Bude Canal, at great expense, between 1819-26.

St Michael's was originally built as a Chapel of Ease to nearby Stratton Church, and only later became the parish church of Bude Haven as the town expanded with the advent of the London and South Western Railway in the 1890's and its new found popularity as a holiday resort - somewhat sharply described by John Betjemen as "an East Anglian resort facing the wrong way".

Bude started to become fashionable as a resort in the middle of the 19th century and the character of the town has been particularly defined by its Victorian development as a tourist destination. Fortunately the town has not been disfigured by large-scale 20th century tourist development or excessive commercialisation.

The extensive green areas of Maer, Summerleaze and Efford Downs, the golf course, the valley of the River Neet, the Bude Canal and the agricultural land separating Stratton and Bude create a distinctive pattern of countryside interspersing the built development areas.

Visitors are drawn to the area to spend time on our beautiful sandy beaches, walk the coastal paths or surf in the Atlantic waves. Children can safely swim in our unique Sea Pool on Summerleaze Beach, guarded throughout the holiday season by our ever watchful Bude Surf Life Savers.

Hartland Quay, with its wild, majestic sea and landscape, historic Tintagel and the well known port of Boscastle are all within easy driving distance.

Those of us who are fortunate enough to live here enjoy quiet, uncluttered roads and a relaxing lifestyle.

Parishes in the Benefice are administered by Cornwall Council and represented in parliament by the constituency of North Cornwall.

The power of Christian prayer I want to know Thee
Father, I want to know Thee, but my coward heart fears to give up its toys. I cannot part with them without inward bleeding, and I do not try to hide from Thee the terror of the parting. I come trembling, but I do come. Please root from my heart all those things which I have cherished so long and which have become a very part of my living self, so that Thou mayest enter and dwell there without a rival. Then shalt Thou make the place of Thy feet glorious. Then shall my heart have no need of the sun to shine in it, for Thyself wilt be the light of it, and there shall be no night there. In Jesus Name, Amen.
