“Was a surprise booking from my partner and I couldn't of been more pleased!”

The most beautiful apartment, lovely scenery. 30 minutes away from a beautiful sandy beach and 10 mins away from and adventure park where we were able to indulge in a few of the activities and had the time of our lives! The couple who looked after our lodge too were absolutely incredible too and we will definitely be back there!!

“We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at 5 Faraway Fields.”

The trip was a break for our 20th wedding anniversary and we couldn't have found a better property for a relaxing break away from the normal stresses of life. The spa room was absolutely lovely and the only thing that wasn't quite right was the TV in the bath which had poor reception for some reason. The kitchen was extremely well equipped so we felt no need to venture out for food as it was actually easier to make food at the lodge. We would have appreciated some better instructions on how the heating worked but as tech-minded people, we figured it out as the weather did turn a little chilly one night. The bedroom was designed beautifully but I felt the pillows were a bit old and could definitely do with replacing as two of them smelt a little stale. The bed was reasonably comfortable but obviously, a mattress is a personal choice. I do think the listing for this property should mention that it has a rather good hairdryer as I bought my own along and really didn't need too The cinema room was amazing. As we stayed over the Platinum Jubilee it was great to watch the coverage on this as well as stream movies. My husband and I had a thoroughly relaxing time and would love to return to this or another property in this lovely, quiet, and super luxurious holiday lodge development. The only thing we couldn't get was fantastic weather to enjoy the beautiful secluded garden around the lodge!

“Great location at the end of the pothole filled road means it’s nice and peaceful.”

Lovely lodge with great facilities such as the spa bath and cinema room. Loved the sofa it just cuddles you in, the shower was amazing too! Have recommended the lodge to friends and family. Our only minor criticisms were the pillows were quite flat and felt well used. I understand everyone likes a different type of pillow but by having different options available it should suit everyone. The double bed was made up of two singles pushed together meaning if you roll over in the night you can land in the gap which is not particularly comfortable, having a double/king size mattress would have been best in my opinion along with a soft headboard. We 10/10 stay again!

- Becky, May 2022
Stephen May 2022

“Softer bed needed as bed was like sleeping on concrete pad, we left a night early because of this.”

Other than that small issue we had a lovely time the lodge was spotless and was well equipped. Will definitely stay again.

We had an amazing stay a beautiful site & very peaceful, used the sauna & hot tub every day, very nice touches of bits & pices that you needed for your stay will definitely come back again

“We had an amazing stay here!”

It was so relaxing and we had everything we could possibly need! Sadly we had to leave early because of the storm but could have stayed another week easily!

Beka November 2021

“Amazing place to stay, so beautiful, lovely and quiet.”

The sauna and jet bath was amazing, few details could be looked at due to where in tear. Cinema room was comfortable and a nice touch. Have a Bluetooth speaker in the lounge/ kitchen was lovely when cooking food. Sofa was gorgeous, almost cuddled you in. Bedroom was lovely and had plenty of room around either side, shame about comfort, as my partner struggled with sleeping due to the mattress and pillows, but you can’t please everyone when it comes to beds. Everything was clean to a high standards, had everything we needed and a booklet told us everything we needed to know. Will definitely be returning to the lodge in the future. Thank you for a great stay and hope to return back very soon!

- Beka, November 2021

Hello it is great that you enjoyed your stay with us and are looking to return in the future, you are more than welcome. Sleep issues are always difficult with a mattress one type may suit one person but may not suit another, personal preference. Many thanks for your positive comments. Property Owner
Mark October 2021

“The lodge was lovely.”

Was a little disappointed to find a empty beer can and empty oil bottles in the sauna . Felt it hadn’t been cleaned appropriately.

- Mark, October 2021

We are sorry you had this experience whilst staying with us, we have taken this up with the Housekeeping team and going forward more stringent checks are being done. Thank you for your feedback. Property Owner
Joanne Cordon September 2021

“This was the best accommodation I'd ever stopped in.”

Secluded, romantic setting ideal for couples. The cinema room, jacuzzi and sauna we excellent additions and I would definitely go back

Laura December 2020

“Faraway Fields is a beautiful place for a break away.”

The lodge was spotless and luxurious, the bed was comfy, the cinema room was fantastic and the facilities were excellent and clean. Everything was provided for you, We didn't want to leave.

- Laura, December 2020
Daniel October 2020

“The bed was very uncomfortable gave me and my partner bad backs and hip pains.”

Do not see why it needs to be a super king, two singles bolted together just a king would of been nice. The site Southern hoult was very nice but the map gave us the impression there was a walk to a wood when we went to have a look we couldn't find it.

- Daniel, October 2020
Jenna October 2020

“The blind in the living room on the left by the floor lamp, was broken, would not come down, which was really annoying as all the other blinds worked fine.”

Hopefully can be fixed if you are aware of it for future customers.

- Jenna, October 2020
Leah August 2020

“We had such an amazing holiday.”

We didn't want to leave on our final day. Everything was perfect, we loved it and we will definitely will be back. Just a couple of things we wanted to mention, nothing major; but when it came to closing the blinds in the living room, one of them wouldn't go all the way down, hence why we had to hang a large bath towel. And just another little thing to suggest, when looking out the windows we thought they could have done with a little clean, so we weren't looking out of dirty windows. But apart from the little minor issues, we didn't let it ruin our amazing holiday :)

- Leah, August 2020
Mr August 2020

“Excellent stay at 5 Faraway Fields.”

Very nice lodge and perfect for a couples get away. Whilst staying in cornwall we did a lot of driving and exploring and this lodge was the perfect place to come back and relax. The hot tub and sauna area is a great set up and was used daily. Would highly recommend this lodge. The whole site is kept clean and tidy, would definitely return.

- Mr, August 2020
Darren August 2020

“No.5 Faraway fields is an absolute gem of a place to stay!”

Everything is there that you would need from kitchen utensils to towels and there isnt a negative thing I could say about our experience there. Every room was very clean and we had no need to contact anyone from the site for the whole time we were there. It is peaceful and set in such a beautiful location which is also right next to the A38. I cannot recommend this place enough to people wanting a truly memorable experience!

- Darren, August 2020
Martin August 2020

“The lodge is fantastic, ample parking, with great views and lovely gardens.”

From the luxury of the spa bath to the sauna room, and cinema room , it far surpassed all our expectations. The site is peaceful and lodges have seclusion. It was spotless and well equipped, a real touch of luxury. We would certainly recommend this lodge, site and found the Skyes staff extremely friendly and helpful. Look forward to booking again, thank you for a really memorable break

- Martin, August 2020
Amy February 2020

“Once again an amazing stay this was our second stay and we will sure be back for a third!”

Only a slight mark down for comfort nothing drastic I think just personal preference as I felt bed was slightly hard but a bed none of the less and we’re so grateful for this amazing place!

- Amy, February 2020
Hannah February 2020

“The lodge was lovely, as are all of them in Southern Halt.”

We had 2 Smart TV’s, but couldn’t use any of the smart features as there was no WiFi connection, which was promised. This made the Cinema Room useless and we couldn’t use our phones as there was no service. Other than that, a lovely quiet place to stay.

- Hannah, February 2020
Mitzi January 2020

“Beautiful place and surroundings, perfect base for a holiday as you are only a short drive ,from some lovely local attractions.”

The only down side was we wished we would have stayed longer .

Catherine December 2019

“Beautiful cottage, great location, lovely and warm and cosy!”

Great place to relax.

- Catherine, December 2019
Daniel November 2019

“Fantastic weekend.”

Facilities were brilliant. The only 2 things I would like to mention is that the chairs in the cinema room weren't the comfiest as there were hard lumps in the back of the chairs. Also although generally we were impressed with the cleanliness we felt that attention to detail is needed as there was soap scum and old bottle marks on the glass shelf in the shower and alot of limescale on the waterfall tap in the bathroom sink. This did not however have any negative impact on a really lovely stay. Hoping to return.

- Daniel, November 2019
Chris November 2019

“There were a couple of minor issues we found during our stay.”

The lock on the toilet door locks but doesn't unlock, my partner let me out from the outside. The shower drains very slowly and is therefore quite slippery. I don't think the washing machine is fitted as solidly as it could be as during the spin cycle the kitchens kickboards were shaken off. Apart from these slight inconveniences all was well with our stay and we would book again.

- Chris, November 2019
Chloe October 2019

“Myself and my husband stayed here for our first wedding anniversary.”

The lodge itself was amazing. We really enjoyed having an indoor hot tub and sauna and also the cinema room was a plus. It was clean and tidy and had everything that we needed. The location (Dobwalls) is very quiet not much to do unless you willing to travel. Saying that we would definitely come again, perhaps bring the children next time. One criticism is I would expect to have a Netflix or such like set up on the tv in the cinema so you don’t have to pay to watch any films.

- Chloe, October 2019
Louise October 2019

“I booked this for a surprise birthday treat for my partner!”

We were both over the moon with everything! The location is fantastic, short drive away from some fantastic places. The lodge is just perfection.. It is well maintained and looked after, fully equipped with everything needed.. Its so peaceful perfect for a relaxing get away! The spa room is amazing. We thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of this property. We will be booking again.. And have recommended this to family and friends. Just perfect. Highly recommend!

- Louise, October 2019
Chris October 2019

“Very well located, fantastic layout, good use of space, sofa and bed were really comfortable, pretty surroundings.”

- Chris, October 2019
Elizabeth September 2019

“This is an honest review of 5 Faraway Fields.”

...the lodge and surroundings were amazing and we would definitely return. My only criticism is the cleanliness could of been that bit better, when you first walk in you think wow but as the day went on (from a lady that owns her own cleaning company) I noticed a lot of important missed bits but saying that it wouldn’t stop me returning and with this resolved it would have been perfect.

- Elizabeth, September 2019
David August 2019

“The wifi was not working properly.”

Called the telephone number provided to sort the issue and was told that there was nothing they can do and that it had been a problem for a while now. We weren't told ahead of time this was the case. If we had been told prior; we could have made arrangements to prevent this being an issue for us.

- David, August 2019
Melissa July 2019

“We had a brilliant short break.”

No issues at all. Would return

- Melissa, July 2019
Martin July 2019

“The accommodation was really good apart from a few bad points.”

Pans were dirty, did not use them, went out and bought some new ones Shower was blocked, had to buy a plunger to clear Oven was dirty Dishes were dirty and had to be washed on arrival

- Martin, July 2019
Ceri June 2019

“Amazing lodge in beautiful surroundings.”

Central location. Peaceful and relaxing.

Danielle June 2019

“The lodge was far bigger than expected, some times photos give a false representation but in the case it was for the better.”

Everything was clean and looked brand new, even down the the towels they where incredibly soft. The bath and sauna where amazing we used them daily due to bad weather and the cinema room was perfect for this reason too. The kitchen had everything we could ask for (even a potato masher, dishwasher and washing machine)! Over all we had an amazing relaxing stay. Thank you!

- Danielle, June 2019
Matthew June 2019

“Our holiday was amazing.”

We only had a view points we wanted to mention. The water pressure is very low meaning it takes a long time to fill the hot tub and also take a shower. The only other point is the seating in the cinema room is very uncomfortable. This being said it didn't ruin out experience.

- Matthew, June 2019
Bobbee May 2019

Absolutely lovely time in this little cabin loved every minute only down falls was that the WiFi wasn't working during our stay

- Bobbee, May 2019
Daniel April 2019

“I have to say the place was amazing, absolutely trouble free entrance key safes etc.”

I liked the wow factor when we entered the cabin it was stunning. The only bit that was a problem was the water pressure it took forever to fill the tub and the shower was more like a drizzle. That aside it was the perfect break. Thank you.

- Daniel, April 2019
Henrietta April 2019

“The lodge was beautifully decorated throughout with great facilities.”

Unfortunately our hot tub was slightly broken but this didn’t completely ruin the experience. We were also left with a welcome brochure to the wrong holiday park which didn’t help! Aside from this, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would return.

- Henrietta, April 2019
Matthew April 2019

Georgia March 2019

“This place was absoultey gorgeous.”

. the only and I mean the only downfall was it could of been a bit cleaner. On arrival, we noticed quite a few hairs in the bath, some sweet/chocolate wrappers in the sauna and later on discovered the knives had been used and just been put back in the block. However, dont let that put you off this place. Its heaven. It's exactly what we needed and for us what a base to explore the rest of Cornwall. We would 100% visit again and 100% recommend to anyone.

- Georgia, March 2019
Amy March 2019

“We loved every second of a mini break, the cabin had everything we needed especially in the kitchen!”

The jacuzzi bath was just amazing and the cinema room was the cherry on top of the cake! Our only comment would be we only had one toilet roll in the cabin when we arrived and the information pack was for the sister site so we had to do our own research on the local which made our break more fun! This place really is amazing and the best cabin we’ve ever been too! We are already looking to book to come back at the end of year!

- Amy, March 2019
John February 2019

“Fantastic holiday from start to finish.”

We have stayed in some lovely lodges before, but this was by far the best. Fabulous romantic getaway for two, everything you need is there. The facilities within the lodge were perfect - didn't want leave. We will definitely be coming back.

- John, February 2019
Lucy January 2019

“The cottage was beautiful, the view was beautiful!”

Couldn’t of asked for a better place! Me and my boyfriend went and it was very romantic. I have already suggested it to my family to book a few later in the year so we will definitely be returning! Thankyou so much for the amazing holiday.
