Holders of a clutch of awards including Visit Britain's coveted 5 stars and gold awards and the Gold Award for Green Tourism, these beautiful lodges have been built to the highest environmental standards with sustainable materials throughout.

The owners’ mission has been to combine quality, comfort and sustainability. Each lodge has been handmade by local craftsmen using Cornish larch from sustainable woodland. Energy efficiency is assured by premium spec insulation, making Rosehill a terrific year-round destination. The Lodges are lovely and cool in the hot summer and wonderfully cosy in winter. You can read more about the Lodges’ impeccable eco credentials on the owners’ website.

Along with grass roofs and log burners, each lodge has a luxurious hot tub spa – perfect for relaxing after a heavy day’s playing. The lodges are all beautifully furnished with quality funishings and appliances. They boast fabulous super- king size beds , Superfast broad band and Smart TVs. Glass covered decking enables al-fresco dining whatever the weather.

Little touches make all the difference – each lodge has an outdoor drench shower to wash off the sand and salt after a day in the surf. Each lodge is also equipped with soft ball tennis, badminton sets, Boule, buckets and spades and childrens fishing nets .

There are large open play areas – one with a badminton net. The others are ideal for tennis, cricket and football. Young children will love to discover the 'secret' bamboo hut.

The lodges have been assessed as "Level 1 Mobility" (with some actions to be completed). Please see the owners’ website for full details.

Porthtowan has a safe sandy beach with plenty of rock pools for little ones to explore. There are plenty of opportunities for water sports enthusiasts - surfing, body and belly boarding. Kayak tours are a great way to explore Cornwall’s stunning coastline.

If you prefer your exercise to be a little dryer, the local riding stable is just 200 yards up the road. Walkers and cyclists are well catered for - the dramatic scenery of the South West Coastal path is 5 minutes away while the 11 mile Coast-2-Coast cycle path is just a ten minute cycle away. This gentle route along a former mineral railway track is almost entirely traffic-free and is perfect for families.

Adventure activities can be found at the Adrenalin Quarry in Liskeard and quad biking, hang gliding, paragliding and paramotoring are all within easy reach.
