“Beautiful, cosy and extremely comfortable lodge in a stunning setting.”

...

Very well equipped kitchen with everything you could need. We cooked full traditional Christmas dinner for four with no problems. Loved the touches of welcome pack with tea, coffee, sugar, dishwasher tabs, washing liquid and local attraction leaflets. Good wifi connection, no problems chatting to my family in New Zealand on Skype and checking my online business messages. Powerful showers and lovely large bath sheets with hairdryer also available at the property. Lovely bonus was a welcoming Christmas tree in the property. Hot tub was a joy to relax in each day. Loved spotting the wildlife around the beautifully landscape site. Even took my wildlife trail cams to see what was about. Few good walks a short drive from site...Goiltha falls and Siblyback lake. We took both of our elderly Mum's, one being disabled on crutches and even though the property is not listed as a full disabled access property it worked very well for her with just one step up to property and walk in shower. We did take some disable aids to assist her like rubber shower mat, toilet raise, handles and cushion raises. Really loved the lodge, the property owners have done a fantastic job.... just one concern and couple suggestions for actual site owners. Given site has David Bellamy Award for enhancing & protecting environment was a little concerned to see hot tub being drained into wildlife pond at end of week. Would like to see some walks listed straight from site in welcome pack. Site management email contact info on laminated sheet in property needs updating. Would definitely recommend property...we are already planning our return visit!

“Lovely location, fantastic lodge had everything that was needed with the added luxury of the hot tub.”

Would definitely recommend this for a relaxing break.

“Relaxing holiday for a family of 4.”

The hot tub was visited every day with friendly staff. The views were excellent and peaceful. Netflix channel in both the lounge and main bedroom kept the boys occupied when not out and about or in the hot tub. There were some games but the dominos had two broken pieces and one missing and we did not attempt the jigsaw. The cleaners forgot to clean the microwave and the frying pan may need replacing. Otherwise it was pretty clean. I broke an ice tray..... sorry. The pub was more than 5 minutes away and I would not attempt to walk there at night because of the road with no pavement. You can go through the bottom via Meadow View and spend less time on that road but I wouldn’t do it on a night. The little fountain pond and stream is a lovely addition when flowing and on. The walks are pleasant round the sites. Very tempting to buy a lodge........ The balcony is overlooked to the right and left by the other lodges. But realistically they are there for the same reason so a friendly hello and wave makes all the difference to our holiday neighbours. The site is well looked after so expect some noise from the gardening staff at one stage. We were there for two weeks so the earthquake was just the lawnmowers. Most things are within a short drive including National Trust and Beaches. Adrenaline Quarry and Aldi/Morrison’s in ten minutes. Well definitely book again, a home from home - it was superb.

“The lodge was absolutely perfect, in a quiet location, gorgeous views, really comfortable and clean with all you need.”

Hot tub was an added bonus and great for stargazing of an evening! In a remote location but near enough to easily travel across the county. Would highly recommend southern halt, in particular the group of lodges by the pond. Would definitely book again.
Mrs Dadd August 2019

“Lovely property in peaceful setting with amazing view (when weather allowed!”

).
Mrs Jennings July 2019

“Booking 14 Far Away Fields was the best decision we made this summer.”

The lodge exceeded our expectations, from the welcome pack with all the essentials you need when you arrive to even having board games for the children. Having two teenage children with us the WiFi was an added bonus too. For me and my husband, the hot tub was the piece de resistance. After a day travelling around beautiful Cornwall it was such a lovely bonus to able to unwind in the hot tub in the evening with a glass of prosseco or two looking at the stars. Thank you Sykes cottages, I will definitely be booking 14 Far Away Fields again.

Great holiday , great lodge , could do with an extra frosted panel round by hot tub at the lake end for privacy for both our lodge and the one next door as you can clearly be scene while in the tub if they are out on decking which we weren’t too happy about as it felt uncomfortable , having the hot tub flag up filter change from day we landed for the two weeks we were there wasn’t overly happy about contacted contact number day we arrived and advised ok to use ,given filter was concerned off cleanliness ,other than that very happy our 4 th year at southern halt first year with Sykes , will be great if there is ever an on-site shop / food ,will be back next year for sure
Mrs Hatfield June 2019

“We had the most fantastic stay.”

The pictures on the web were amazing but when we got there they well exceeded our expectation. Home from home comfort and we have already booked to return same time next year to celebrate my dad and step mums silver wedding anniversary. Thank you so much for a wonderful stay
Mrs Robinson May 2019

“Fantastic place to stay in an idyllic location with stunning views, far exceeded our expectations.”

The only thing I would say, it is a lodge that sleeps six therefore more than one key would be beneficial. Luckily there were only two of us so one key was absolutely fine however if a couple of families/couples went together, you would all be tied down to going out & coming back at the same time. No issue for us this time, just an observation. Would highly recommend this lodge though.
Mrs Jones May 2019

“Excellent quality through out the lodge.”

Beautiful location with amazing views. Very good Base to explore the local area
Mr Kershaw April 2019

“We absolutely loved our holiday.”

The lodge was exceptional, up to date, spacious and the site it was on was beautiful. We will be booking again.
Miss Bone March 2019

“Beautiful place to stay, easy to get to, and some lovely views.”

Mrs Budnar March 2019

“Lodge was brilliant the welcome pack was nice, the bedrooms were so spacious and the linen was clean and fresh.”

The hot tub was a dream and cleaned every day was nice to see. We will definitely be back
Mrs Monson March 2019

“We have stayed at numerous different lodges on the Southern Halt site and this is by far the best!”

Lovely vista with the lake, it will be even better once the trees have established themselves.
