What a fabulous holiday lodge set in beautiful gardens with a disused Cornish mine within the grounds being restored to its former glory. This lodge has everything you need for a perfect stay. Everything is spotlessly clean and first class quality. Set inland from Porthleven in quiet countryside. No local amenities within walking distance but not too far to drive towards Helston to Tesco, Aldi and Lidl. Two bedrooms - one with comfy double bed and one with comfy twin beds. Can use both bed rooms but only caters for two adults. So you can choose to have a room each or share - which ever you prefer. The owners have thought of everything to make your stay perfect - even down to leavingmilk, biscuits, tea, coffee, sugar and home grown seasonal produce out of their garden. Would definetly book again the next time we want to tour Cornwall.

What a lovely place to stay! A tranquil and comfortable ‘home from home’. It had everything we needed and more! The owners were very helpful but left us to it. Lots of lovely places to visit that were easy to get to - in particular Porthleven! Quiet beach and plenty of restaurants to choose from. Would define stay again!
