From the manager: Thank you for your recent visit we are delighted that you enjoyed your stay Chycarne camping is made up of a number of different areas depending on your preference At Chycarne we do have well in excess of 60 level pitches situated through out the campsite. The remaining pitches do have a gentle slope. Too many this is not a issue and certainly helps with drainage The natural topography of the land when you so close to the beach side tends to be sloping towards the sea especially in Cornwall. This is what makes the scenery at Chycarne so breathtaking this is why 76% of pitchup.com visitors say that Chycarne is in a place of outstanding natural beauty with breathtaking scenery. Chycarne
Lovely campsite, let down by the small details

Liked: Lovely campsite with good views
Disliked: You have to pay for showers, this was not advertised at booking and on our second night the showers were freezing cold for the duration of the paid time, on average the showers take at least a minute to warm up wasting your money, if you expect people to pay for the showers then they should be hot from the start. Also all the pitches seem to be on a slope which isn’t great for a campsite

From the manager: Thank you for your recent visit. We note your comments regarding the showers. At Chycarne we offer exceptional value for money. The showers are clearly advertised that a small charge is levied for the use of the showers This clearly is advertised on Pitchup.com this helps to prevent overstay in the showers.Reducing the amount of waste water that as to be cleaned prior to discharge We do not advertise free showers as no showers are free to the business but an allowance is made in the camping prices to reflect this small charge. In order to be more far more eco friendly the old style water heaters have been phased out and all water heaters we work on are new efficient water heaters saving huge energy costs. Yes there can be a short time ( a few seconds ) before the water is heated to the required temperature 42c however this generally is not the case when the showers are in use for sustained periods. However the showers would warm up and never remain cold for the whole duration of the shower unless there was a fault. We are not aware of any fault being reported regarding the showers during your stay. We are delighted that you enjoyed your stay Chycarne

From the manager: Thank you for your recent visit Unfortunately during your stay the weather was a little inclement. Sadly the whole country does seem to be experiencing unusual wet weather for this time of year but alas the forecast is a improving situation especially for August. Of course the wetter weather does help keep the natural fauna looking beautiful and fresh We appreciate your comments and are delighted that you enjoyed your stay in this most beautiful part of the UK Chycarne
Excellent site with clean facilities, I would stay again.

Liked: Campsite was quiet and spacious with a marvellous view of the sea. The site was very well maintained. Bathrooms were very clean and shower was very powerful and warm. I liked listening to Radio 2 in the bathroom and they were well lit at night. Loved being able to walk to Kennack sands from the campsite. Really good value for money! I’ve already looked at staying again.
Disliked: Because it was quiet the shop wasn’t open so make sure you have all the supplies you need. I did so it wasn’t a problem.

From the manager: Thank you for your recent visit to Chycarne During low season the shop is on request but during the peak season the shop is open from 9am to 9pm We welcome and appreciate your comments regarding our shower and toilet facilities. The walk to the award winning blue flag beach from Chycarne holiday park should not take more than a 10 minute walk and maybe a little longer coming back . Chycarne
