Situated on the south-facing side of the Trebarwith valley, with an uninterrupted view across farmland and sea to Trevose Head Lighthouse, Chylean is rural but not isolated being the last property in the hamlet of Penpethy, 2 miles from the sea, 2½ miles from Tintagel and 3½ miles from Camelford.

Beautiful Sunsets behind the Headlands		Our Peaceful, Unspoilt, Wooded Valley

Our 3 cedar chalets are set in 2½ acres of Unspoilt Cornish Countryside with typical Cornish flora and fauna - so bring your binoculars!
Some local residents caught on camera by our visitors:-
