Exactly as described, this beautiful bungalow is perfectly placed for visiting so many locations in this part of Cornwall. Sue, Pete and Bella the cat, made us feel welcome from the very start. We had a thoroughly enjoyable and comfortable stay and we cannot recommend it highly enough.

Lovely peaceful location

Spotlessly clean accommodation, perfect for walking the south coast coastal paths. The accommodation had everything you could possibly need for a perfect stay and was very well presented. Sue and Pete were perfect hosts and made us feel very welcome. Many thanks.

Relaxing & pleasant week

The Lodge is a lovely accommodation and ideal for a couple wishing for a quiet base in central Cornwall. It was spotless with all the essentials, including decent wifi. Also in easy driving distance to both coasts with a local shop for essentials with larger shops just a short drive away., including St Austels Brewery :)

The Lodge, Polgooth

We would definitely recommend this property. Opened in April 2018 the owners have created a contemporary space ideal for a self catering holiday in Cornwall. The Lodge is in a quiet location ( we visited early June) and comfortable with all amenities that you would expect. The Lodge is well located for sightseeing on both Cornish coastlines. Host Sue and husband Pete are very knowledgeable about the area and places that may be of interest off the beaten track. Sue and Niall, North West England
