    “Good communication beforehand meant check-in was seamless.”

    it was a beautiful lodge, in great condition and furnished really well. it was very clean and tidy with everything you need for your stay. The beds were very comfortable, lovely lounge area and all equipment worked as it should. The site is very quiet and the hedges around the lodge make it nice and private, especially the decking area. The only addition we could suggest is an air fryer, but obviously not essential. We would have checked out an hour later, but felt the £20 pricey for ...

    it was a beautiful lodge, in great condition and furnished really well. it was very clean and tidy with everything you need for your stay. The beds were very comfortable, lovely lounge area and all equipment worked as it should. The site is very quiet and the hedges around the lodge make it nice and private, especially the decking area. The only addition we could suggest is an air fryer, but obviously not essential. We would have checked out an hour later, but felt the £20 pricey for just one hour. We had a great 5 nights here and would definitely recommend it for a relaxing break.

The property

5 Southern Place is a refined countryside lodge tucked into a peaceful, unspoilt corner of Cornwall, ideally positioned between the seaside character of Looe and Polperro and the open landscapes of Bodmin Moor.

Created for guests who appreciate space, seclusion and an unhurried rhythm, it provides a generous, well-considered base for everything from restorative escapes to shared stays with friends and family.

From the moment you arrive, the atmosphere feels calm and grounded, with tall trees, drifting wildflowers and the gentle murmur of a nearby stream shaping a setting that encourages you to slow down.

Unoverlooked within its surroundings, the lodge offers a true sense of privacy, with gentle trails leading straight from the door and a welcoming onsite team available when needed.

Inside, the feeling of light and openness continues, the living space inviting you to sink into the L-shaped sofa dressed in soft blue tones, light the woodburning stove on cooler nights and make use of the well-equipped kitchen with muted grey finishes, where mornings begin over fresh coffee and evenings stretch out over relaxed meals.

The dining area naturally draws everyone together, whether for shared suppers or a quiet film once the day winds down.

Three thoughtfully styled bedrooms provide a calm retreat at the end of each day, made up with hotel-quality linens, while the bathrooms are finished with fluffy towels and carefully chosen toiletries.

Outside, the decked area becomes an extension of the living space, opening up to far-reaching views that shift from dawn to dusk, and as night settles in, the hot tub offers an inviting place to watch the sky darken and the stars appear, stepping back inside wrapped in one of the boutique bathrobes provided.

The stillness here feels genuinely restorative.

For evenings spent with others, the Old Mill Bar and Restaurant at nearby Stonerush Lakes is close by, serving wood-fired pizzas and handcrafted cocktails with waterside views that suit relaxed gatherings.

From the lodge, Cornwall unfolds in every direction, with Looe, Polperro and Fowey inviting unhurried exploration along the south coast, while Bodmin Moor, Cardinham Woods and the waterside trails at Siblyback offer a slower inland pace.

The north coast, including Padstow, Port Isaac, Newquay and Polzeath, is easily reached by car, as is Plymouth for a change of scene, while beaches range from sheltered spots such as Talland Bay and Readymoney Cove to the surf beaches further north, many linked by the South West Coast Path.

Family days out are well catered for too, with the Eden Project, the Lost Gardens of Heligan, Carnglaze Caverns, Porfell Wildlife Park and Adrenaline Quarry all within easy reach, along with boat trips and sea safaris departing from Looe.

5 Southern Place offers the freedom to explore both coast and countryside, with a peaceful retreat waiting at the end of each day.
