Beautifully appointed holiday let

Very cute, very well appointed shepherd hut and outdoor space. Just about room for everything inside, could do with a few more kitchen items such as a salad bowl. Loved the hot tub, dome quite warm in the sun but would be very cosy in cooler months. Bed a bit high - could be difficult for people who are not very tall ! Overall a very enjoyable stay.

A wonderful stay in a beautiful place!

We recently stayed for a New Year break and couldn’t have faulted the place. The hut is exactly as advertised and we even got a bottle of bubbly and some biscuits as a welcome which was a beautiful touch. Perfect details on how to get there and a great detailed chat about how to use the hot tub on arrival which was helpful!The host cannot do enough to help and if you need them for anything, they are at the end of the phone and act upon it within hours. Just wonderful! The village is beautiful, probably the most beautiful place I've visited so far in England and the people are welcoming and lovely to talk to. Not to mention that there are some wonderful pubs and places to eat only a ten minute walk! Thank you for such a lovely stay, I would definitely recommend to anyone wanting a relaxing getaway!

Fantastic Shepherds Hut in a wonderful location

We had a great week at the Shepherds Hut. On arrival the property matched the pictures and description, also a lovely welcome from the owner, along with some baked treats, which were a lovely touch. The Shepherds Hut has been completed to a high standard and we had all we needed for a week. There is a lot of wildlife to observe, lots of bees in the wild flowerbeds, and we even saw some deer on our last day in the field opposite. You have your own privacy and seclusion, which is great for night time star watching in the hot tub. However should you need anything during your stay the owners are very responsive and helpful. It is in a great location for getting down to Polperro in 5 minutes by foot, and although you can't avoid the steep walk back up the hill it did seem to get easier each day.

Polperro Shepherd's Hut

Just spent 5 nights at this property and had a wonderfully relaxing time. The hut was spotlessly clean and couldn't be a in a better location. Beautiful and peaceful. A short walk down into Polperro from the hut, but the walk back is fairly strenuous (the hill is pretty steep). The hot tub is fantastic and just the thing to relax in after wandering through the streets of the Polperro and other beautiful Cornish villages. Had a lovely time and would definitely go back.

Perfect Getaway Stay

We stayed for one perfect week in September. If you like to be out of the hustle and bustle of the town, but still close enough to walk in (steep walk btw) we cannot fault it. All I can say is give it a go. You will not be disappointed. Very high quality accommodation. The hut, hot tub and owner were all great. Oh and of course Polperro itself is a lovely place to visit.

Wonderful Stay

Had a great week-long stay in the hut. It is extremely well equipped and comfortable, with the added bonus of the hot tub. Gorgeous walks straight from the door and Polperro itself is a beautiful village, with lots of great places to visit in the surrounding area. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this place, we had a very relaxing stay.

The most perfect getaway!!!

Really loved the property it not only looked lovely but it is in such a peaceful location me and my partner felt completely isolated from the world and we able to enjoy some very needed alone time and relaxation. The village is beautiful and has plenty of restrants and the harbour is a really nice walk. The owners were lovely and helpful.

Private and secluded yet short walk to pubs, shops, swimming & coastal walks

The hut was perfect for the two of us. It is very close to Polperros main pubs and shops but has that feeling like you could be miles away in the middle of nowhere. We didnt even mind the steep walk back up! The hut itself is well kitted out, clean, plenty of storage for two and the bed is comfortable. We used the hot tub just twice during the week only because the weather was so hot during each day and it was nice to cool down a little in the evenings. The bbq was also a bonus - we used both this and the local pubs for our evening meals :) All in all we had a brilliant week and would definitely stay again. Polperro is our new favourite place in Cornwall :)

Perfect tranquility

We would highly recommend staying at the Penlea retreat. Tim and Helen were wonderful hosts. Very helpful and communicative. The accommodation was equipped with everything you need. It was very warm and the bed was really comfy. We were welcomed with an afternoon tea which was a lovely touch. The wood fired hot tub was perfect for a romantic evening under the stars. Tim gave excellent instructions on heating the hot tub and we enjoyed 3 evenings out there despite it being 0 degrees outside it was lovely! Polperro village was stunning and just a short walk from the property. The views are absolutely stunning and there are plenty of beautiful coastal walks straight from the village. We would definitely stay here again.

Fantastic little find

What a wonderful Shepherds Hut and hot tub experience. It is completely private as you have your own enclosed area. The owners are very responsive should you need them. The hut is a short walk into Polperro which is a gorgeous little town with lots of bars, restaurants and shops. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would love to return in the future.

Fabulous!

The cabin looks exactly as advertised and almost isn’t done justice in the photos!! The inside is furnished very tastefully and to a very high quality, the bathroom especially. Not only is the cabin itself amazing and in a perfect spot (just a short 5 minute walk to Polperro) but the view is beautiful. The owner is happy to help with any issues or inquiries you may have. I’d highly recommend and would definitely come again.

Perfect Polperro escape

Penlea Retreat delivers everything it promises and more. From the first interactions with Tim prior to booking, our comprehensive arrival instructions and warm welcome from Tim & Helen, with lovely little touches inside the hut, which is small but perfectly packaged - the ideal environment for rest and relaxation. Though saying that, it's perfect location for the quaint and fascinating town of Polperro and the wonders of the Cornish coastal path meant we were ideally placed for exploration, leaving the car behind throughout our stay and taking several circular walks (one a bit more strenuous than the others!) and several trips down into the town. Polperro itself has enough choice of shops, pubs and eateries to keep many a traveller happy. Our favourite bit was the chance to relax for several hours at the end of each day in the hot tub - luckily having several clear nights, shutting all the lights off, listening to the wildlife and soaking up the stars. After many wonderful trips to Cornwall, Penlea Retreat definitely rides high on our must return list.
