  Had a nice stay at Smugglers Shack last week.

  The lodge is easy to find on a nice quiet edge of the park. It was very spacious, modern, nicely decorated and had some nice touches like the throws, cushions, lamps and candle holders. Making it a nice home from home and with the fire on in the lounge it was nice and cosy in the evenings. The tv was big and modern with Netflix and Amazon and my teenage son was able to set up his Xbox with ease! The kitchen was very well equipped and there was nothing I thought there should have been that wasn’t.. apart from forgetting to take my oven gloves as these are not provided and I didn’t read the small print! The Wi-fi was adequate and we appreciated the google smart speaker. The central hearing worked like a dream and the water pressure in the shower was very good. The only negative which I did read beforehand in other reviews was that the sofas and armchair really could do with new seat cushions. They were very low and flat and being as we spent quite a lot of down time reading and relaxing, felt we couldn’t sit for long periods as was so uncomfortable. We used the unused bed pillows to make it a bit more comfortable and I also resorted to sitting at the dining table most evenings. Really let’s down which was overall fantastic accommodation in a nice area. The walk into Polperro down a country lane beside the park didn’t take long but was very very steep. We visited Looe, Polperro, Plymouth, St Austell and the beach at Talland Bay that you can walk to from the park. The cafe at the beach was lovely. Would highly recommend and would definitely stay again. Thanks.

  Beautiful little bungalow with everything you could need.

  Lovely to have milk, tea, coffee , scones, jam and cream as a welcome on arrival. There is a good selection of games and books to keep all the family entertained as well as a TV, radio and free Wi-Fi. There is small table and chairs and a bench for sitting outside beside the bungalow. Only couple of slight issues, the bath towels supplied are rather on the small side so hubby was rather glad I had packed a larger one. The double bed mattress could do with replacing. Could do with a hook by the door for wet coats. None of this spoilt the enjoyment of this lovely property, The complex is extremely well maintained and peaceful ( although we were there before school holidays so that might make a difference) Lovely pool which although I did not actually go in I enjoyed relaxing in the sun beside it. The complex is well situated for driving out to other areas and very handy for Looe. There is a bus stop outside. There is a lovely little village , Pelynt, just a few minutes drive away with Spar shop and a nice pup, Jubilee Inn. We used the pub for breakfast on the day we checked out to come home but they do light lunches and are about to start full meals soon. The week after our visit was vacant and we were soo tempted to book it rather than go home but sadly commitments did not allow for it. Would highly recommend this bungalow.

  The holiday was great and the lodge was actually better than I thought it was going to be on previous experiences the site it’s on is really great and quite Their was only two very small problems and they were the fact that when you use the toaster the electric kept tripping but that wasn’t a problem because you could use the grill the other thing was that the we couldn’t get the cooker extract fan to work like I say they we’re only small problems that did not affect my stay but I just thought you could pass the information onto the owner Other than that i could not fault the lodge it was excellent and well looked after with everything you needed supplied to make your holiday enjoyable so much so we are considering coming back next year if it fits in with other projects we have on as it was so great and enjoyable and the lodge is awesome

  We had a brilliant time.

  The Lodge was very clean and as described. Nice little kitchen which had everything we needed for cooking meals, we were provided with enough towels and tea towels, toilet rolls etc. The sofas weren’t the most comfortable and the bath taps difficult to operate, but we did manage to bathe as well as shower. We were very comfortable and worth the money we paid, although glad we went that week as the week after had a sharp rise in price. Set in a Caravan Park which had a small shop fir supplies and a takeaway facility which was useful for our first evening. We would love to come back next year. Perfect accommodation for us and close to Polperro and Looe. Booking system was easy too! A very happy week (apart from the weather). Thank you!

  The lodge was in a quiet & pleasant location.

  There were issues with cleanliness and maintenance ie dirty shelves with mouldy coffee in a caddy that was thick with grease etc I spent a lot of my time cleaning, I do not believe these things are down to the owner. Many pans not fit for purpose with buckled bottoms and flaking non stick. No washing up bowl or plug for the sink ( I did buy a plug but it was the wrong size) Outside balustrade was loose in places. I have taken photos to show areas I mention. Onsite facilities very tired looking ie swimming pool and tennis courts & clubhouse. Overall we enjoyed the space and apart from these things found it pleasant and reasonably comfortable to stay in I just think it was below Sykes normal standard.
