About this property
Occupying a secluded and elevated position, set within the countryside and immaculate grassy fields is this luxury lodge, 9 Horizon View. The lodge offers spacious accommodation for a family of six and/or friends to come together and make the most of a rural setting. The open-plan living space enjoys natural light from the panoramic windows, layered with an all-white, stylish finish. The contrasting purple sofas with sumptuous cushions allow you to cosy up while maybe watching a film on the large TV set within the wall and warming the room with a pleasant glow from the fire. A pristine kitchen provides you with all you need to ease your self-catered holiday. Throw open the French doors on a summer afternoon and step out onto the decking to gaze into the distance at the rolling pastures that stretch for miles or make use of the sunken hot tub and let the bubbles soothe any aches and pains as you admire the breath-taking views; you may want to dine alfresco on a warm summers' night or wrap up warm in winter and enjoy starry skies out on the decking. As the night grows darker, select from three bedrooms, including a double with en-suite, a double (zip/link) with TV, and a twin, along with a main bathroom for completing your nightly routine from. There are plenty of places to visit enveloping the cottage, such as Liskeard which is a few miles away with a train station taking you to the picturesque fishing village of Looe. This journey will pass through the wooded valleys teeming with wildlife, and give you views of the estuary as the river meets the sea. Looe boasts a lively bustle around its quay and offers much to see and do; twist your way around cobbled streets to find shops and pubs, and amble along Banjo Pier to watch the fishing trawlers return. Guests can enjoy the Old Mill Bar and Restaurant at our sister site, Stonerush Lakes, which can be found a short journey away.
This village is surrounded by open fields and countryside, and is close to the market town of Liskeard. Explore the many delights the region has to offer, with the fishing harbours of Looe and Polperro within 8 miles. Take a trip to Siblyback Lake and enjoy the sailing, fishing and watersports available, or take full advantage of walking on Bodmin Moor. The Eden project is within 15 miles and Plymouth is just a 30-minute drive away, with its old harbour, shops and restaurants.

It had everything in it we needed. Very comfortable. Beautiful views from the lodge as well as garden furniture and hot tub. Would definitely recommend it. Also very quiet and peaceful.

The lodges in Horizon View have stunning views of the surrounding countryside and hills. Although the grounds are open plan, the lodge felt private because of foliage very effectively screening the decking and garden area from neighbours. Hot tub is a great addition, lovely to relax in each evening with a few glasses of wine. Plenty of amenities within short drives nearby (especially Trago Mills!). Great location for visiting Looe, Polperro, Charlestown and other popular places for sightseeing. Negatives: a bit of a walk to dispose of rubbish bags (perhaps supply bins outside the lodges?). Our dining table had a very sticky residue: we think the varnish had turned 'tacky': wasn't particularly a problem because we simply used a sheet as a tablecloth, but definitely something that needs rectifying. The gorgeous views were blocked a little by a hedge that we think could be pruned lower to maximize said views. We had a lovely holiday, many thanks.

. We had an awesome holiday and found our lodge to be very well equipped and clean. Beds were very comfortable as were the sofaâs.. Hot tub was clean and well maintained.. Overall we cannot find any fault hence we have rebooked for next year. We stayed at your sister sight back in 2022 at Lanreath and enjoyed that place too.. Very highly recommended and the site staff especially Tracey Karn were very friendly and helpful..
