  Only downside it was a bit of a pain transporting the luggage down to the lodge.

  As it was down a gravel path of about a 100 meters. Luckily we had taken a collapsible trolley truck but still has to make 3 trips on arrival and departure. The complex has electric golf type trollies outside reception but presumably for booking made through Whitesand bay holiday park. Ours was privitaley owned but we were offered there luggage trolleys. The view from the Lodge patio deck was amazing looking over Plymouth sound and rolling hills. The only sounds we could hear came from sheep on the hillside, birds and the wind. It was quite breezy for all of our 5 night stay. But welcoming in the hot sunshine. We could not fault the lodge as it had everything one needed for a home away holiday. The owner catered for a pleasant stay with milk tea and coffee in the fridge and cupboards. The park facilities were good with a pub and restaurant. Although as it was early session the pub and restaurant closed at 20:30 during the week. We enjoyed a plentiful lovely Sunday lunch on the patio outside the restaurant. There was a pool opposite but didn't use on this occasion. There wasn't a shop on the park but don't know if there is one in high season. The nearest shop was a few miles away in Millbrook down narrow precarious country lanes. The nearest major supermarket was Sainsbury's in Torpoint about a 20 minute drive also down narrow lanes until you reached wider B roads. I did a major shop there the day after our arrival. So we had enough supplies for a few days. After a day out to Perrenporth we topped up at Tesco Extra in nearby Plymouth. We came back to Cornwall on the Torpoint ferry, not to be missed. There are some wonderful places to visit nearby like Cawsand and Kingsand villages next to each other with charming streets houses an little sandy bays. A visit to Mount Edgcumbe House and gardens is highly recommended. A walk down through the park takes you down to the shores of Plymouth Sound where you can watch the boats and ships sail in and out. Pont Avon departed to Santander while I was there. There's also a foot ferry from there across to Plymouth. An enchanting pub to the left of the lower entrance gates. I can't wait to go back to the lodge to explore beautiful Cornwall Futher!

  Lodge 23 at whitsand Bay Fort, immaculately presented with fantastic views, There are some nice little touches such as milk, tea, coffee and sugar on arrival.

  We took our dog and relieved that the veranda is totally enclosed and gated at each end so he could 'potter’ around safely. Very Impressed with amount of storage in all areas of the property, (small thing -could do with more clothes hangers) Bedrooms felt warm at night, even though the outside temperature was 14° so a fan would be welcome particularly on the very warm summer nights. Contact with Lodge owner has been great, they emailed us a map of the site and have answered any questions we had swiftly. The site facilities are very good, though the swimming pool was closed for refurbishment on our visit. Restaurant is very good, with reasonably priced food, all the staff were very friendly. The site cafe great for a good cooked breakfast. Car parking, you get one allocated space, any additional car is charged at £10 a day, which I felt was excessive, you can park free on the road but space looked limited. I would certainly recommend Lodge 23 as a lovely place to stay, we’ll certainly stay there again.

  The lodge was amazing.

  The views were stunning. We would love to go back again. The only bit of downside to it was even though we could not park our car outside the lodge which we accepted , what we didn’t know is it we had to carry all our luggage etc from the car park down to the lodge which is quite a hike unfortunately the owners of the site seem to have a bit of an attitude towards privately owned lodges as they had Electric vehicles which they could’ve taken our luggage down, but it was a no , also, if you come in 2 cars you have to pay an extra £35 a week . I’m sorry owners, but I think you need to pay a bit of tension on the crockery as we found the dishes was still dirty. No doubt not cleaned properly from dishwasher also had to retrieve items from under the settee could do with being hoovered. We are looking forward to going back again because we had such a great time , don’t be put off by what I’ve just said as it’s only really trivial, but I felt as though I should mention it ,happy holidays .

  A lovely place to stay.

  Quiet, beautiful views, easy access. The whole lodge had everything you need. A glass for every type of drink, plenty of crockery, cooking pans etc. The lodge was lovely and clean, smelt nice and was so open and spacious. A few of the full time neighbour's were friendly and stopped to chat. Beautiful places to visit nearby. We only came over from Plymouth but it felt like we were 'holidaying' for sure. Would stay again and recommend the loge as a place to stay. There are trolleys available to move your belongings from your car. There is a slope down to the lodge but it's easy ish to navigate. The great thing is no vehicles driving past your accommodation. Private and quiet.

  This lodge was perfect!

  Such a lovely view and location. It had everything that you would need like iron, washing machine, cleaning bits and even tea and sugar! was so cosy and warm regardless of the endless fog. Lovely veranda with gates both sides so our dog could run around freely. We watched some lovely sunsets from the pathway on site. I’m sure it will be even better once all the works are completed on site but it didn’t cause us any bother at. There is a beautiful beach just across the road that is down the cliff side and even a surf school that hires out wetsuits and boards. Would definitely recommend this place.
