About the site

Chyan is a beautiful, unique place to camp. The emphasis is on wild camping with back to basics facilities, aiming to let people come here and enjoy the experience of connecting with nature in a peaceful and rural setting away from the trappings of the modern world. Here you will find tranquility, wildlife encounters and an experience quite different to most other campsites in Cornwall. The beautiful, secluded and unique camping site at Chyan Farm is set in a rural wooded river valley, surrounded by trees and fields - and dotted with apple orchards. It is a no-frills site and facilities are basic. Don't expect luxury, but do expect the chance to sleep out under the stars, encounter local wildlife and explore the lovely area. All pitches are non-electric and you can pitch wherever you choose.

Open from 1 April to 30 September
