Valley Lodge 61
Description
Valley Lodge 61 is a modern lodge set in the leafy Tamar Valley Resort, in Callington: a collection of purpose built and privately owned self-catering holiday properties.
Ideally located to explore the delights of Devon and Cornwall, there are some local attractions within easy reach, too.
This detached property is peacefully situated away from roads and traffic noise. It boasts four ground floor bedrooms including: one double room with doors opening to the terrace, two twin rooms and a further double. There is a Jack and Jill family bathroom with bath, shower over, basin and WC plus an additional ground floor shower room with a basin and WC. The contemporary kitchen /dining area and sitting room is located on the first floor with doors leading to the balcony – suitable for al fresco dining.
Just a short walk from the on-site leisure facilities including indoor and outdoor heated swimming pools, bar, shop and reception. During the school holidays there is a busy program of entertainment including quiz nights and karaoke plus sporting activities (seasonal, subject to availability, extra charges apply) including archery, rock climbing, canoeing and abseiling.
Within a short drive is Cotehele, a Tudor house and valley garden estate set above the River Tamar or a little further afield you can visit the glorious sandy beach at Whitsand Bay with dramatic scenery and sheer cliffs.
Equally accessible is the scenic Dartmoor National Park with rolling moorland and seemingly endless historic sites, tors and monuments - a rambler's dream. Valley Lodge 61 is a real home from home: an ideal choice for families, friends and couples.

What guests are saying
Overall, we enjoyed our stay.
The property and the site as a whole has seen better days, and could do with some work to bring it back up to the high standards it potentially has. When we arrived, it smelled musty, and this smell continued to come from the main bathroom throughout our stay. The water pressure made using the shower cubicle unusable. The floor in the kitchen was ridiculously creaky, and sounded even worse from the 2 bedrooms below. There was only one "quick" cycle available on the dishwasher, and it wasn't good enough to clean efficiently. On arrival, we had to re-wash a lot of the plates and cutlery, as they had dried food on them. The configuration in the living room makes no sense at all. It has been designed, so that if you want the patio doors open, it completely covers the tv. Also, how the sofas are positioned, doesn't allow all to see the tv. Both fans available were faulty. The tower one turns off if you turn oscillating on. The other fan's blades hit the cage as it spins. The lower fridge door milk shelf is hanging off, and makes the fridge tough to use. The general grounds of the park need a lot of maintenance. Most of the fencing is rotten or broken. The games room is very limited, and we were dissapointed to find the table tennis table broken in half. A lot of these are simple fixes, to make the place that bit more comfortable. We think the place is a good size for 6, but 8 would be too many. It's a really peaceful place, we love the forest feel, and where the lodge was positioned. Other lodges seemed far closer together, but we felt isolated, in a good way. We enjoyed the pub, going 4 times. Twice for decent meals, and also to play bingo and join in the quiz. We would recommend! We would stay again, but would hope for the things highlighted, to be addressed.
