Guests have praised Tressa at Tor Down Quarry for its idyllic and peaceful setting, cleanliness, and well-equipped lodges. The surrounding quarry lakes offer a unique swimming experience, and the hot tub is a popular feature. The property's location is ideal for exploring Cornwall's attractions. While most guests enjoyed comfortable stays, a few mentioned issues with mattress comfort in one of the bedrooms.
Reviews consistently mention the lodge being very clean and well-maintained, with guests feeling welcomed by the tidy environment upon arrival.
The location is highly praised for its tranquillity, proximity to local attractions, and natural beauty, including the quarry lakes and wildlife.
The majority of guests found the lodge comfortable, with only a few remarks about an uncomfortable mattress in the ensuite bedroom, which slightly lowers the score.
Facilities are generally well-regarded, especially the hot tub and well-equipped kitchen. However, concerns about the safety of the ladder into the quarry lake suggest room for improvement in maintenance.
Guests frequently appreciated the thoughtful touches, such as the cream tea on arrival and dog treats. While these gestures are warmly received, they are not guaranteed for every stay.
For a family or two couples seeking fun and adventure on holiday, a stay at this lovely and spacious dog-friendly lodge offers it all. Set within a large quarry, the two private spectacular lakes boast a variety of outdoor pursuits including diving and wild swimming. Walkers and cyclists are also well catered for as within a mile is the start of the famous Camel Trail taking you through the moors and countryside along a disused railway line all the way to Padstow. After the thrill and excitement of a day on the moors or enjoying the exhilarating lakes, relax in the hot tub which is 40 metres away in the Old Forge before returning to the lodge, or gather your loved ones for a barbecue. The lodge is both spacious and comfortable with an open-plan living room, well-equipped kitchen and cosy dining and sitting areas. When it comes to dining out, within two miles you have two of the finest moorland pubs in Cornwall. Close by in the village is the award-winning Old Inn, dating back to the 11th century with homely dog-friendly bars and huge roaring log fires in the winter. A little further is the Blisland Inn famous for providing the finest range of real ale in the County and is a former national CAMRA pub of the year.
With so much to do and see in the immediate area you could well spend your entire holiday here but you are in a good central location for touring Cornwall if you decide to venture further afield. A perfect base for an action packed holiday whatever time of year. This property can be booked with Costentyn, and Mellyone (spelt Mellydonen) Beder Del (Melly) together they sleep 23.
St Breward is a village and civil parish in Cornwall, England, and is famous for its moorland area with notable prehistoric remains of the earthwork, more commonly known as King Arthur's Hall, and the Fernacre stone circle. The village has easy access to many country pubs and restaurants and village stores to explore. With plenty of attractions in the village itself, you won't want to venture anywhere else!
