Hello

I dont know if this is the right place to post.

We holiday in Pafos every year and are wondering if there is anywhere to camp for a night up in the mountains, we think that the night skies and the peaceful sound would be an experience.
Does anyone know of any companies who rent out cabins/tents in the mountains at all ?

Thanks in advance

You can rent Yurts in Simou - Google 'Yurts in Cyprus'. May not be just what you're looking for, or the right area, but thought I'd mention them.
I think Ride in Cyprus in Lysos have them too.

Try and Google camp sites Troodos, I have seen a site for caravans etc but not tents as such!

Alternatively there are very comfortable (or so I'm reliably informed!) YURTS in Simou just outside Polis if you fancy a more 'glamping' experience, and the views and skies are fabulous!

You cannot camp, as such, on the Troodos mountain.

However, if you travel to the top of the Paphos forest area, to the forest rangers station then you can rent accommodation up there.

Stavros tis Psokas is what you need to google or try TripAdvisor.

Troodos is a lovely place to be in the summer, the climate is ideal.
Val And I spent the summers of 1966/7 at the Troodos Leave Centre (for UK service personnel and their families on summer leave).
Our job as military musicians was to provide the entertainment there, the 'Summer of Love' 1967 (If you're going to San Francisco) always brings back memories of 50years ago, next month we celebrate 51 years of marriage.

No idea if they are open just now but I would suspect not since it states "Open from May until the end of October" Give them a call fter the end of the month Tel:00357-25420205 or 00357-25470903 :grin:
