Filling in holes in woodwork (Cupbaords, shelves etc)

We bought our puck last week and its great.
However the one annoying feature is that the previous owner seemed a bit over keen with drilling holes for speakers and so on.
We have a few holes in the doors and underneath of visible shelves which to be fair are not that bad but are visible.
I've looked on-line for fixes for holes in MDF but I can't find anything at all??
Has anyone else had a go at this sort of thing?

Thanks

You could try using plastic "plugs" these come in all sizes and are used in kitchen / bedroom furniture (not sure if I havve the terminology correct)

Basic "Plastic Wood" is very good and can be had in wood colours.
Felt tip pen is good to help with colour matching I have added strong tea
before now to give a better colour match (tiny amounts)

Wo guys.
Thanks for the quick replies. I've never heard of plastic plugs before so I'll have a good google and scour screwfix too!

Also check out "screw head covers" these usually fit into the top of screws but can be glued to cover a hole😎
