  Me and my girlfriend adored our 4 night stay at 19 Meadow Retreat, celebrating our 6 years of being together.

  We couldn't of asked for a more perfect place to stay in Cornwall, with it being close to many wonders such as: Eden Project, Looe, Plymouth, Bodmin etc. Conveniently there is a Morrisons only a 6 minute drive away in Liskeard, so we could stock up our fridge with ease. The facilities within the lodge are amazing, with notable mentions of the Cinema room. A large flat-screen TV with a surround sound system is great to watch movies on and play games. The jacuzzi, shower and sauna being located within the bedroom is convenient as-well. The morning views over Liskeard is worth every penny. The reason for rating only 4 stars though is there is a couple problems with the lodge: - The jets for the jacuzzi turn on randomly, so had to turn off by the fuse at night to avoid a scare! - The underfloor heating system is confusing (4 thermostats on the wall in total) and I never noticed a difference with how much I played with it. - The bedroom radiator is extremely loud (possibly trapped air) and needs repairing as had to keep the thermostat off so it doesnt activate. - The towel rack next to the jacuzzi doesnt work at all, only the one in the toilet. - Two single beds put together is not nice, kept falling through the middle. But besides them couple points, it was an amazing experience and I would stay here again if these problems are rectified. Thank you for a pleasant stay!

  We loved staying in the gorgeous Keets shepherd's hut at Middle Acre farm.

  It was the perfect balance of rustic nature with luxury! The hut is small but so perfectly laid out, every bit of space is used effectively and the lovely owners have provided absolutely everything you could possibly need. They were also super friendly and helpful, providing tips for us useless city dwellers on how to set up the wood burner and also giving very clear instructions for local walks. We didn't use the hot tub in the end but it looked absolutely gorgeous. We explored the local area a bit and the pebbly beach is lovely but most of our time was spent enjoying the hut, lying in the garden reading, toasting marshmallows on the firepit and cooking a feast on the BBQ. As the listing says there is no wifi which is all part of the fun 'off grid' experience but there is perfectly good mobile and 4G signal if needed. The hosts kindly provide all the essentials you need for cooking, plus fuel for the wood burner, BBQ, firepit and hot tub. There was very reliable hot water and a lovely fully functional bathroom with a great shower - we couldn't believe they fit all of that plus a lovely comfy double bed into such a small space! We'll be back as soon as we can.

  I usually stay at 9MR, so this was first time in the property but not first time at Southern halt.

  As with 9MR the property is well maintained and has all the right features for a relaxing break, with the added bonus of a balcony overseeing the adjacent Fields. Southern halt is a great place to stay if you have a car as you can really get about exploring all the wonderful parts of Cornwall. The only things I'd mention for 19MR that are mentioned in other reviews is the spa bathroom and bedroom is all one room so I can imagine in the summer you will rise early as the skylight brings in the new day (wasn't an issue during my stay as coming to the end of October it's still dark at 8am!) and privacy is harder to come by in the kitchen living room due to the front door being open glass, but to be honest it's not like people will be walking by peering in at all times as I'm sure they will be enjoying their own properties. I would say if you are looking to enjoy some cinema room time then the TVs could probably do with updating, they are older smart TVs (both front room and cinema room) so you are only able to get Netlix and Prime, (no Disney, apple etc.) All in all another great stay at Southern halt, will be back again.

  This was such a lovely shepherds hut, we really enjoyed our stay.

  We had a lovely welcome when we arrived, Michelle and Roger both gave us all the info we needed and were really helpful. The hut is incredibly well equipped, as well as having ample private outdoor space and set in lovely grounds. We were very lucky with the weather and were able to use the BBQ to cook in the evenings, but had we not been, the kitchen has a gas ring and plenty of pans that it wouldn't have been a problem to rustle up something easily. The fact that Keets is 'off grid' was great, no TV or wifi, so we could really switch off. The wood burner kept us toasty in the evening and the hot tub was a delight after a long day of walking along the SW Coast Path. Keets is really well situated for access to the coast path so you don't have to drive anywhere and only a short walk to the local pub. I'd definitely recommend staying. Amazing hosts and perfect accommodation, can't wait to plan another trip soon.

  We had such a wonderful week at Middle Acre!

  It was such a fantastic experience and we will definitely be looking to stay again in the near future! We absolutely loved everything about our stay from the quirky hut, to the log burning hot tub, to the sites nearby, it was just fabulous! We managed to visit a nearby site called Durdledoor whilst on our stay and was absolutely blown away - definitely a must see if you stay here or nearby! We finished our stay with the walk that was recommended by the hosts and again, it was just fantastic! Everything about our stay was brilliant and it provided us with the perfect opportunity to have a week away from the outside world. A massive thank you to both of the hosts for making us feel so special throughout our stay and for providing such a super experience! We will definitely be visiting again when we next get the chance!
