21 Meadow Retreat is a spacious two-bedroom lodge positioned on the edge of a private lake near Bodmin Moor and both Cornish coasts, its south-facing aspect capturing views across water and countryside. Ideal for families or small groups seeking space and seclusion, it boasts a sunken hot tub on an expansive wrap-around deck, a master bedroom with dressing room, welcomes pets with secure outdoor facilities, and open-plan living flooded with natural light. The bright open-plan living space embraces light and landscape from every angle. Bi-folding doors dissolve the boundary between interior and the lake beyond, allowing the water and views to become integral to the living experience.
A fitted kitchen supports family meal preparation, whilst formal dining space and lounge areas provide flexibility for group living. The master bedroom is a private sanctuary, featuring a king-size bed, stylish en-suite, and dedicated dressing room for unhurried preparation. The twin bedroom delivers equal consideration, with patio doors positioned to frame the lake view from bed level. Outside, the expansive wrap-around deck anchors the property's outdoor appeal. The side elevation captures farmland and countryside perspectives, whilst the main south-facing section overlooks water and planted features. The sunken hot tub occupies this prime position, ideal for evening immersion as light softens across the landscape.
From this lakeside position, both Cornish coasts deliver distinct appeal. Head south to Looe's authentic harbour and beaches, Polperro's intimate streets, or Fowey's waterfront restaurants and galleries. Travel north for Padstow's maritime energy, Polzeath's coastal vitality, or Port Isaac's clifftop authenticity. Inland, Bodmin Moor unfolds immediately accessible, offering moorland walks suitable across all fitness levels and ages. Family outings find ample provision nearby. Adrenaline Quarry delivers adventure activities, the Eden Project showcases living collections, and the Lost Gardens of Heligan reward discovery. The Old Mill Bar and Restaurant at Stonerush Lakes removes cooking obligations when preferred. Whether prioritising lakeside tranquility, moorland exploration, or coastal discovery, 21 Meadow Retreat accommodates the full spectrum of family desires.

There are no skips/rubbish collection points near the cabin to put the black bags in. There could be rubbish collection points near by. We shouldn't be expected to use our cars to dump rubbish. The surrounding area was overgrown but the stay itself was quiet and very nice.
