The lodge is very well maintained in a beautiful quiet secluded location and the owners have thought of all eventualities including having fans which was a god send for us during our stay as well as heaters if you need for the cooler months. The kitchen is very well equipped with everything you will need. The extra touches of hand soap and toilet roll in the bathroom and washing up liquid, kitchen roll, dishwasher tablets, dishcloths and tea towels and bin bags in the kitchen was a nice touch. The hot tub goes without saying a huge advantage which we definitely made the most of during our stay as was the cream tea waiting for us! Thank you! Canât wait to book again.

Out in the sticks so it's very peaceful. No traffic. No screaming children. Just the birdsong and the breeze rustling the leaves on the trees. But just 10 mins drive into Falmouth, which is a beautiful town, full of independant shops and cafe's. The lodge is very private too as the other lodges are spread out, and there re trees and hedges around. Inside the beautiful lodge, the facilites are great, with everything you need. A lovely welcome pack when we arrived was nice. Our only problem was that the single beds were very uncomfortable for adults, and gave us bad backs after a couple of nights. The hot tub was lovely, especially at night, relaxing and looking up at the stars. Our host gave clear instructions and was friendly and helpful.

It is in a peaceful and quiet setting. It is the perfect retreat from everyday life. Perfectly placed between Falmouth and Truro. It is easy to get to Helston and Gweek. The hot tub is just the icing on the cake. We loved this lodge and didn't want to leave. Anne and her husband is very accommodating and will help you anyway they can. Definitely going to stay here again
