    There was nothing not to like. It delivered more than it promised.

    This is brilliant. The lodge overlooks a picturesque lake, complete with resident nesting ducks. There is a kitchen / dining / sitting area, along with a generous-sized bedroom (four poster bed) and separate bathroom. Upon our arrival we found scones, jam and cream waiting for us and a lovely welcoming note. We met our hosts the next morning, and we loved hearing about how they had built the lodge themselves. Definitely one of the best we have ever stayed in.

    The cabin was situated on a private lake which offered peace and serenity, the setting was so beautiful we found it difficult to leave the cabin to explore the surrounding area. We have two dogs and they were free to roam to their hearts content. A wonderful holiday was enjoyed by us all.

    The road, layby going down from the main road is too much gravel with the bike which is a safety hazard but more preference really than the actual lodge.

    Location was perfect, a nice getaway which it was I very much needed to be alone.

    We were happy with everything.

    It was ideal for us to have time away. It was warm and comfortable and had all we needed. The grounds outside were perfect for our dogs and it was remote enough for us to have privacy. The cream tea on arrival was a real treat.

    The only slight problem was the internet was slow, this was clearly pointed out by the owner in the welcome book and is not their fault at all. You could still get everything you need on the internet just slower than some will be used to.

    It was lovely and comfortable. Great location with easy access to all points of Cornwall. The owner Vanda was welcoming and friendly. There was a lovely cream tea waiting for me on arrival. All information about the property was in a welcome book. It was clean and cosy and a lovely view of the large pond. Great for solo travellers and couples. There was a veranda to sit on in the evenings though I didn’t use it as the weather was not great being March it was rather wet. The lodge is located down a small road and not too far from the main house should you need anything. It was quiet and relaxing. Directions to property were given by the owner and these were clear and precise.

    The lodge was just perfect in every aspect. Beautiful surroundings and we also received more detailed instructions on where the lodge was located . We had a very relaxing time and our little Jack Russel also enjoyed her stay. Vanda was very accommodating and friendly. We will definitely be booking another stay here in the future

    The decking was a tad slippery when wet.

    What a beautiful setting and so peaceful! We were welcomed by Vanda, such a caring and kind lady. Vanda had prepared a wonderful homemade cream tea for us! Tony, Vanda’s husband, had put lovely fairy lights up around the outside of the lodge and on two small trees on the decking. A Christmas wreath adorned the outside of the lodge door. It all looked so pretty! Inside, Vanda had decorated the the bed posts and had various Christmas wreathes and flowers dotted around, which we really appreciated. There were thoughtful additions, like doggy towels and covers for the sofa, hot water bottles, towels and flannels, Vanda had thought of everything we could need! The lodge was incredibly well insulated and so was nice and warm and cosy inside. There was plenty of wardrobe and drawer space and the lodge had an ironing board, iron and hairdryer. It was fully equipped for cooking, with an oven and hob, crockery, cutlery, glasses, cooking pans and utensils and cleaning materials. There was a fridge, a T.V and some books and videos. The heating was more than adequate and the lodge had such a lovely feel, with beautiful views of the lake and trees and lots of wildlife. We took our dog walks around the lake and enjoyed the lovely plants and vegetation. We wished we were able to stay longer but we will come back during the spring, to fully appreciate the flowers and trees.

    Unfortunately, when it rained and then stopped the rain dripping off the tree above the bedroom onto the roof was very loud. If you are a heavy sleeper (like my partner) then it won’t bother you at all! Other than that it was a perfect stay.

    Very secluded and easy to get to. Self contained and had all the items you would need to be self sufficient for the week. Very comfortable bed & sofa. WiFi was strong in the living room to stream Netflix, but would drop out in the bedroom. Lovely surprise of a cream tea on arrival. Heating worked great and the lake was a bonus should you want to stretch your legs for a wonder.

    Struggling to find something! Not within their control - roadworks on the last bit of A30. Narrow farm track from road. As I say difficult to find fault!

    Beautiful secluded location. Easy access to main roads. Very comfortable and well equipped. Cream Tea ingredients waiting on arrival is/was a bonus. Second visit and will go again .

    Not a thing, the amenities were above and beyond for such a seemingly simple get away set up. Every need was catered for, and more!

    We were welcomed so warmly, and even got surprised by a delightful Cornwall cream tea! My mum and I truly felt connected to our beautiful surroundings. Such a peaceful setting so close to the outside world, yet felt a million miles away. A true holiday break.
