Beautifully refurbished lodge with all the essentials. Delicious cream tea on arrival. Fantastic setting amongst fields and lakes - perfect if you have dogs. Hosts incredibly friendly - will definitely stay again and recommend to couples/families/solo travellers looking for a relaxing break. Also great beaches nearby and local farm shop! ##### Kerry R. Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dave M., Tedburn Saint Mary, Devon, United Kingdom 13 May 2018 #### Fantastic - Nothing to fault Great lodge with everything for 4 adults to stay in comfort. Beds, Fire, central heating, fully functional kitchen - literally huge amount of thought has gone into the space. Scones Jam and cream on arival and milk in the fridge. We stay away from home a lot and over time have learnt to bring essentials like salt/Pepper, decent pan, good knife etc - nothing needed all in place. Clean as a whistle. Just book it for a great cornish trip ##### Dave M. Stayed 2 nights in May 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dave F. 10 May 2018 #### Perfect weekend escape. We really enjoyed our stay at Kingfisher. The setting was so peaceful and the property was very comfortable and had everything we needed. The interior and furnishings were lovely which is quite an achievement in a dog friendly place. Elliott was a great host who gave us a warm welcome. We really enjoyed having breakfast in the sunshine on the decked area listening to the birds singing and spotting rabbits. We'd recommend it to others and hope to go back. ##### Dave F. Stayed 3 nights in May 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Wendy P. 19 Apr 2018 #### Beautiful chalet in peaceful location The accommodation was of a great standard, beautifully decorated with quality furnishings used throughout. Super comfortable too. Really friendly welcome by Elliot and his wife. The location is excellent, so close to fantastic beaches, we went to Sandymouth every day (10 min drive) with our pup who loved it! The chalet situation is great too, the last one at the end of the drive, there are 3 other chalets but you barely know they are there. Lovely big private grounds too which was perfect for a bit of pup exercise! Would definitely come again. Only tip would be to provide a bath mat - the shower floods the bathroom floor! ##### Wendy P.

Highly recommended We stayed here with our two young children (aged 3 and 6) for a weekend break and it couldnt have been better. Accommodation is stunning and well equipped - designed and built by owners and what a fantastic job they have done. We stayed in Kingfisher lodge which is suitable for children and allows dogs. Quiet location but very easy to get to all the sights. The local beach is just breathtaking. Plenty of local shops, post office, pubs, takeaways nearby. Lovely touch to have locally made fresh scones and teabags on the table and clotted cream, jam and a pint of milk in the fridge on arrival. The fenced off garden and decking made it so safe and perfect for my boys. And lovely grounds to wonder and explore too. Would definitely recommend to anyone. Thanks x ##### Melanie N.
