The crunch of gravel underfoot and the gentle rustling of Cornish hedgerows signal your arrival at this straightforward, no-frills campsite between Truro and Redruth. Chacewater Park occupies a practical spot in the heart of Cornwall's old mining country, where history runs deep beneath rolling farmland and you're perfectly positioned to explore both coasts without the premium prices of beachside pitches.
This is a site for campers who value location and simplicity over resort-style amenities. Tourers, campervanners, and tent campers will find year-round pitches here, making it a useful base whatever the season. You're within easy striking distance of Truro's Georgian elegance, the dramatic engine houses of the mining world heritage sites, and both north and south Cornish coastlines for contrasting beach days.
Facilities cover the essentials with toilets and showers provided. It's worth checking the campfire policy when you arrive if you're hoping for evening flames. The atmosphere leans practical rather than polished—a functional Cornish stopover where the county's riches lie just beyond the gate.
