Management Plan Review

The Cornwall National Landscape: An Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty Management Plan is a statutory plan. It is Cornwall Council’s duty under the Countryside and Rights of Way Act 2000 to produce the Management Plan and review it every five years. The Management Plan sets out the policies and strategy by which the National Landscape should be managed.  

Cornwall National Landscape covers approximately 27% of Cornwall and is unique as it is made up of 12 separate geographical sections, all diverse and distinctive with different needs and opportunities  to conserve and enhance natural beauty. There are approximately 95 parish/town councils that are within or have some of the Cornwall National Landscape in their parish/town.

This is the first of two consultation and we invite you all to complete the one that is most suitable for you. One is for all members of the public, community groups and local organisations. The second is for our partner and stakeholder organisations. Please choose from the appropriate survey link.

The review process is the opportunity for you to help shape this plan with what matters to you. We are inviting as many people as possible to comment on the existing Management Plan as part of our public consultation. Please help us to make the Cornwall National Landscape Management Plan a valuable, inclusive and document reflective of the local sections, people, communities and organisations who live, work and visit the National Landscape.

Our survey is hosted on Let’s Talk Cornwall.

Our current Management Plan is interactive and downloadable. Some sections have been created as chapters which can also be read separately. They have been recorded as audio files to listen rather than read and some of the Management Plan has been translated into Cornish. Find out more…
