About this property

Woodpecker is Laid back luxury in 9 acres of countryside right near the beach

Woodpecker Sleeps 4. 3 x dogs allowed. Private garden & veranda.

Please note that dogs are not to be left in the lodge unattended.

Please also note that there is a new lodge being built on site but it will not effect or disturb your stay at South Forda Park.

Woodpecker at South Forda Park is in a 9-acre oasis of countryside calm, ideally located within short distance of North Cornwall & North Devon’s finest beaches and attractions.

South Forda Park offers 4 self-catering lodges within beautiful grounds, each with either a private veranda or garden.
​
At South Forda Park we embrace a ‘laid back luxury’ approach, offering stylish accommodation with all the comforts of being at home. No need to leave man’s best friend at home either as 3 of our 4 lodges are dog friendly. As our guest you are free to roam amongst the 9 acres of woodland and meadows we have to offer, including access to fish in our 2 x coarse fishing lakes. Alternatively, if fishing’s not your thing, you can choose to read a book with a glass of wine alongside the river!
