It is homely, cosy and the nautical decor is lovely. It’s very well equipped, with lots of little extra touches that made our stay even more comfortable. The lodge is in easy reach of so many of the beautiful beaches and sights that Cornwall has to offer. We will definitely be back! ##### Catherine W.

Compact but all you need. Clean and plenty of cleaning supplies, cloths etc. supplied. All the cutlery,crockery etc. you need. Some reviews mention spiders etc. it is in the woods so you expect the odd one. Not a problem though. Hardly tarantulas!! We used it as a base. Bus stops in the site and is ten minutes to St Ives. The actual park is ok. Just dated. Needs an upgrade. Can’t fault the chalet though. Would stay again. ##### Paul S.

The property is on a John fowler site which is about 4 miles from penzance about 12 miles to St ives 20 miles to truro. The property is situated in woodland which is such breath taking your accomadtion is situated with other property's but they are not on top of you its so peaceful. The property has everything you need like going from home to home. You can not park out side the property you park on the car park and walk down to it. We went the 16th to the 24th Sept and the club is open but it does not serve food in the day but it does in the evening but times vary. I would not buy a wrist band for the club because out of season there is no entertainment but you can go in the club to sit down and to have a drink and they have a nice out side where you can sit. The accomodation has a double bedroom,but if you have mobility issues the bed is rather high to get in and out off. There are 2 single beds which are very comfy. The accomodation has a walk in shower with a little step to get in. If you book through vrgo then the paper work will say to take your own bedding not duvets but when we got there the beds were made so this is something you won't have to take. There is a tesco morrisons aldi lidl very close by. I would 100% recommend this property and I would definitely go back. ##### Rachel R.

Stayed 3 nights in May 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Carole J. 20 Apr 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful surroundings We took our two granddaughters for a few days away. The surrounding area was beautiful and lots of walking was done. Our granddaughters enjoyed exploring the woods. The only let down for us was on John Fowler's side. We could use the amenities however if we wanted to use the pool we had to pay £18 pp per day! The bungalow was very well laid out and great for the duration of our stay. The kitchen was well equipped with what you needed. There was plenty of room for us all. ##### Carole J. Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Christopher D. 18 Apr 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Lovely family holiday We have just returned from a great week away in St Ives with 2 young children. The Chalet was just what we wanted as a base to explore the beautiful surrounding area. It was clean, well kept and modern and the beds were very comfortable, the kitchen was very well equipped with everything we needed for our stay and we were plesantly suprised to see that there were plastic bowls, plates and cuttlery for our little ones, which not many people consider. The holiday village is great with a lovely playground hidden in the woods along the woodland trail. We used the swimming pool once which was very warm, and the kids had fun at the kids disco a couple of times during the week. The beaches in the surrounding area were stunning and we used the train and the coastal bus to get around which was very easy to use. ##### Christopher D.
