Very private plot, not overlooked and was dog friendly so we could bring our boy. Also has own EV charger which we werenât expecting (thought theyâd be at reception) and this should be advertised more as itâs a real draw. Having said that ours wasnât working but we were sorted out with a neighbouring one immediately. Very comfortable King size bed, very well equipped kitchen with dishwasher; and towels, shampoos and robes provided. The lodge was super clean and comfortable. You can walk to local pub/shop (15mins) and waterfall (45mins) but be aware pub kitchen closes at 6 in the winter! Eden project 30 mins by car, beach 15 mins. We had an amazing break drinking wine in our hot tub and looking at the stars; and visiting the beautiful Cornish countryside. Highly recommended!

Nice hot tub and Pretty holiday site but Pub and shop too far away. Would be nice to have some onsite facilities like a shop and bistro/ bar.

Staff were very helpful and very polite. It is very central for wherever you need to go around Cornwall and was lovely to come back to after a full day out exploring the towns and beaches. Would recommend this property to anyone. Lovely memories were made here.
