    “We booked 12 Horizon View some months before travel and then noticed in October someone had left a scathing review on the property and wondered what we would find when we finally arrived.”

    We were notified of the codes and check in information in plenty of time, and on arrival were greeted by Reception and advised how to access the lodge. First impressions were good, the landscaping of the site is very well kept and there was easily parking for 2 cars with a stunning view from the lodge looking across the valley towards Liskeard. Unlike airbnb's these days where there is usually some milk, bread and cleaning products supplied, you do get the basics to start you off such as washing ...

    We were notified of the codes and check in information in plenty of time, and on arrival were greeted by Reception and advised how to access the lodge. First impressions were good, the landscaping of the site is very well kept and there was easily parking for 2 cars with a stunning view from the lodge looking across the valley towards Liskeard. Unlike airbnb's these days where there is usually some milk, bread and cleaning products supplied, you do get the basics to start you off such as washing up liquid and a few tea bags but nothing else (excluding amenities kit in the bathroom), this is self catering after all. There is a very well stocked Spa just up the road in Dobwalls which I would recommend initially popping in to get your essentials, rather than drag further a field. Once unpacked and settled we did notice that there were some issues, but this was clearly an older lodge and not new. In short a few loose cupboard doors that did not open/shut properly but were secure and did not appear in any way dangerous, with some very minor paint flaking around one of the rooms, the coffee machine was missing in the kitchen and the tv had previously been disconnected by someone (presumably using their own streaming kit) but easily reconnected - we raised this to Reception for information only and they did kindly offer to fix them, however, given they were minor we opted to just leave everything as it was. Now, this is being very picky and if that would put you off then fair enough, however, when our extended family, who were local, popped in for a nose they did not notice any of this and thought it was a lovely location and lodge. For what we needed it was not an issue and overall this did not detract from us enjoying our stay. We did not expect 5* accommodation (due to previous review) but then we also didn't pay what I would consider a 5* price either. Considering the view, the amenities and that electricity, heating and wifi is included, the cost seemed very fair for the weeks stay over the holiday period and the property was perfect for the 4 of us plus our furry friend. If you have an older dog it might be worth taking a carpet runner with you as it can be quite slippery in the lounge area for them. After a minor mishap with toothpaste in our luggage, the inclusion of a washer/dryer in the lodge was also welcome. The hot tub was also ready for use and perfect to enjoy an evening under the stars. We have noticed that the lodge has now been removed from rent so it would seem the owner/site manager has opted to renovate for the next season following our comments to them and/or the previous review. Irrespective, would we stay here again - definitely.

    - Sean, December 2025

    Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us such an informative and lovely piece of feedback Sean, we honestly appreciate this so much. I am delighted to hear that you and your relatives enjoyed the lodge, but sorry that there were a couple of small issues when you arrived. Just to let you know that you can still rent this particular lodge, just not in the same spot on the resort. It has now been relocated to 3 Faraway Fields and had quite a lot of renovation work done, so if you decide to return to stay with us again, please do check it out! Warmest wishes, Sally, Charteroak Guest Services Property Owner

The property

12 Horizon View is a charming wooden-clad lodge set within countryside near Looe, Polperro and Fowey on the South Cornish coast.

Designed for families seeking space and comfort, or small groups of friends, it features a heated outdoor hot tub, a spacious king-size bedroom with en-suite, a welcoming twin room, welcomes pets with secure decking space, and expansive views of the natural landscape.

Step inside and you immediately notice how well this lodge works for group living.

The open-plan living and dining area is bright and welcoming, creating a natural gathering space.

The contemporary kitchen is well-equipped for cooking together, and there's plenty of seating for everyone to relax in their own way.

The king-size bedroom is comfortable and private, with an en-suite and TV.

The twin room welcomes younger guests or additional visitors.

Beyond the glass doors, the expansive decking extends the lodge into the outdoors.

The secure fencing makes it ideal for pets, giving your dogs a safe space to relax whilst you enjoy the views.

It's a place to linger over morning coffee, or to sink into the heated hot tub as evening arrives, watching the sky change colour wrapped in a soft robe.

Pet owners will particularly appreciate having a secure, enclosed space where their dogs can move freely and enjoy the countryside.

The natural beauty around you becomes part of your stay.

When you're ready to explore, South Cornwall has plenty to offer.

The coast is nearby with Looe's working harbour and beaches, Polperro's narrow streets, and Fowey's riverside cafés and shops.

Families will find lots of day trips.

Bodmin Moor has moorland walks with big views, Cardinham Woods offers woodland exploration, and the South West Coast Path has dramatic coastal trails.

The onsite team can offer recommendations, and the Old Mill Bar and Restaurant at nearby Stonerush Lakes serves wood-fired pizzas and handcrafted cocktails.

Whether you want active exploration or peaceful time, 12 Horizon View is the perfect base for discovering the best of South Cornwall.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £250.

About the location

DOBWALLS

Liskeard 2.6 miles; Looe 8.4 miles.

The rural village of Dobwalls is surrounded by open fields and wooded countryside, and is close to the market town of Liskeard, the slopes of Bodmin Moor and the glorious north and south Cornish coastlines. This is a perfect base for exploring the many delights the region has to offer, with the picturesque fishing harbours of Looe, Fowey and Polperro within 15 miles to the south whilst Padstow and the surfing beach at Polzeath lie a comfortable drive away on the North Coast. Take a trip to Siblyback Lake and enjoy the wonderful sailing, fishing and watersports on offer, or travel a little further and take advantage of the superb walking on Bodmin Moor. The Eden project lies within 15 miles and Plymouth is just a 30 minute drive, or 25 minute train ride from nearby Liskeard station. With the Barbican harbour district, renowned aquarium, and good selection of shops, restaurants and theatres, this is a great holiday base.

Note: Sunday arrivals are not permitted.

Please note that the ponds and surrounding reed beds form an important natural habitat for local wildlife. During the bird nesting season, typically between March and September, the reeds may appear more established than shown in some website photographs. In line with the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981, vegetation management may be restricted during this period to help protect nesting birds and other wildlife. We appreciate your understanding as we work to preserve the natural environment and biodiversity of the site for both wildlife and guests to enjoy.
