Bude's Top-Rated Attraction Has Been Given A Christmas Makeover (Yes, We Mean The Tunnel)

"It's like Lapland in Bude."

One of the UK’s top-rated attractions has been given a special Christmas makeover, making it an even more desirable destination this December.

The tunnel next to the Bude branch of Sainsbury’s – yes, you read that correctly – is now covered in an array of Christmas lights and features an all-new “Bude Tunnel” sign.

Earlier this year, the plastic-covered walkway became a surprise hit on TripAdvisor when visitors flooded the site with five-star reviews.

And now, as Christmas nears, Sainsbury’s have paid the tunnel some special attention, installing lights powered by two generators.

We’re honestly not joking when we say it looks lovely:

“Just when it seemed that Bude Tunnel couldn’t get any better it was transformed into a magical Christmas Tunnel of Lights,” one other review states, while a final one sums things up perfectly: “It’s like Lapland in Bude.”

Happy Christmas, one and all.
