The crackle of gravel under tyres gives way to open Cornish skies, where gulls wheel overhead and the distant murmur of the Atlantic carries on westerly winds. This is wild camping as it should be: unfussy, authentic, and wonderfully liberating from the manicured conformity of commercial sites.
Bush Farm Wild Campsite welcomes tents, campervans, and caravans to its working farm setting in Cornwall, a county where rugged coastline meets patchwork fields and ancient stone hedges. It's perfect for those seeking a back-to-basics escape, where pitching up means actually choosing your own spot rather than being directed to a numbered peg. Families after adventure, couples craving simplicity, and solo wanderers will all find space to breathe here.
Facilities are deliberately minimal—this is wild camping in spirit if not strictly in definition—so come prepared and self-sufficient. The campfire policy requires checking on arrival, so you may well spend evenings gathered around flames, swapping stories under star-scattered Cornish darkness. The vibe is quietly independent, refreshingly stripped back, and utterly restorative for anyone weary of the over-sanitised camping experience.
