Supermarket tunnel becomes one of UK’s top attractions

An unlikely destination in Cornwall has become one of the country’s best reviewed tourist attractions.

The perspex supermarket tunnel in Bude is once again one of Cornwall’s top attractions after Tripadvisor lifted a ban on comments. The plastic 70m tunnel links a Sainsbury’s store to its car park.

The walkway, dubbed the Bude Tunnel, has had visitors from all over the country and some even said it was better than visiting the North Pole.

However, Tripadvisor suspended reviews on the tunnel in 2018 after it said some reviews resulted from untruthful contributions.

The Bude Tunnel currently has over 1,100 excellent reviews on Tripadvisor and 52 very good ratings.

The tunnel is currently Bude’s fifth best rated attraction on Tripadvisor, beating Summerleaze Beach, Crooklets Beach and The Castle Bude.

When Tripadvisor previously banned reviews, it said: “Due to a recent event that has attracted media attention and has caused an influx of review submissions that do not describe a first-hand experience, we have temporarily suspended publishing new reviews for this listing.
