Lazy Lodge Reviews

Karreen
Was a lovely break for myself and my boys. So clean. Little extras made it homie. Very welcoming and owners were super nice. And very welcoming thanks for a great stay!
It was lovely to be greeted on arrival, and shown all the facilities available. The facilities were exactly how they were stated on booking. The cleanliness was outstanding and smelt lovely as soon as you walked into the lodge. Christina and Shaun, went above and beyond to make your experience and time at the lodge comfortable and relaxing.
Christina and Shaun are a lovely couple and if you want a home away from home then this is it. The lovely little touches are a credit to them both and make it a great place to relax. It's an ideal location to see most of Cornwall within easy reach. And at the end of a long, day is so peaceful and in a great setting. Can't thank them enough highly recommend The Lazy Lodge
Such a gorgeous lodge in an amazing setting. From the beautiful surroundings to all the finishing touches inside, lazy lodge really does have everything for a great break away. Perfect location for getting around to see all the beautiful beaches & scenery that surround it. Fab hosts, Christina & Shaun, who will go out of their way to make sure you have a fab stay. A great hot tub an added bonus too! We really cant fault anything, this place is definitely up there with our top favourite holiday spots

Wow..wow ...wow In all our years of holidaying, we have never stayed in such a wonderfully perfect setting.....but now we have The pictures online do not do it justice... Shaun and Christina are amazing hosts....from being in contact before arriving, excellent communication on how to get there and even meeting us on arrival...!!!.. All week, they were so kind to us, nothing is too much trouble and looked after us like we were in the best 5 star hotel Hot tub ready on arrival, fresh bread,,jam,butter not that we saw that thanks to our 17 year old who found it amazing The lodge was so spacious,utterly spotless inside,top quality fittings,and even fresh flowers in the lounge!!! They've created a folder that you get with such detailed information on the local area, which helped enormously when eating out,travelling etc The patio doors open onto a large patio area with a fantastic view of the garden and pond It was perfect timing to see the butterflies bees and birds The lodge is so private,the hosts never intruded but were just wonderfully kind to us. Perfect place to get to all of Cornwall, st ives,land end,eden project but we found a gem in Portreath 2 miles away for surfing lounging and ,esp The Hub for lunch THIS will be the best lodge, by a country mile, you will ever visit.....Thank you Shaun and Christina for helping to create lifelong wonderful memories of Cornwall for our boy...
Sophie
We absolutely LOVED our stay at Lazy Lodge. Everything little thing was thought of and nothing was too much trouble. I still cant get over the amount of space we had inside and outside. We cant wait to go back next year for a longer stay and bring our little one! Thank you!
Heather
We went for a week to chill out prior to spinal surgery and thats just what we got. The Lodge is really homely, spotlessly clean and very well equipped with quality items. Christina has really thought about the extra little touches, the fresh bread, butter, jam, milk and even a box of Cornish Fairings biscuits and a jar of sweets to welcome you after a long journey. When baking during the week Christina even gifted us a couple of tea cakes which were so tasty, The wild garden is a joy and so appropriate for the setting. We even had a deer visit one corner of the garden. The couple are extremely good hosts, there if you need them but never intrusive which was lovely, The area itself is very pretty with nice beaches nearby. A visit to the headland at Godrevy NT is a must and a little bit of heaven to be cherished. Most of the touristy places are also very accessible such as St Ives, Falmouth, Penzance etc. All in all we had a wonderful, restful holiday and we can highly recommend. To Christina and Shaun, thank you so much for making us so welcome and we hope to be back soon and to see the buddleia and lilac bushes in all their glory!
Philip
Absolutely amazing. From start to finish, we had the best experience ever, from the initial enquiry with Sykes to the holiday at Lazy Lodge itself. The welcome from Shaun and Christina was the best we've ever had such lovely hosts. Nothing was too much trouble and they provided a lovely welcome pack including fresh home baked bread, baked by Shaun thank you, delicious!. The lodge was well equipped, very comfortable and spotlessly clean, the best we've ever had in the last 20 years of staying in Cornwall. All the little extra touches were appreciated. Whilst the owners live alongside and are available to help as required, they are in no way intrusive. We had a fabulous relaxing time at Lazy Lodge the setting is amazing surrounded by trees, the lovely pond and wildlife whilst we were there, we saw a fox with her cubs, ducks on the pond and even spotted the local woodpecker. The location is perfect for exploring both the North and South Cornish coasts with easy access to lots of great places. Looking forward to returning very soon. Thank you both for everything.
We have had a wonderful weekend staying at Lazy Lodge. It's nice and private, great facilities, we have everything we would need with 2 children. The hot tub is a lovely addition and the hosts even brought us home made cake as a treat whilst staying there. The kitchen has everything that you would need and its a lovely peaceful spot. We saw wild birds, a fox an the children loved fishing in the lodge. Thank you both for a lovely experience.
The Lazy Lodge is the perfect retreat. Located just off the Mining Trail and within a short distance of Portreath and Porthowan, this is the perfect spot for anyone looking to take advantage of the breathtaking scenery and costal walks Cornwall is famous for. The Lodge is nestled within a large garden, which gave our two boys ample space to run around. Plus, the pond attracts lots of local wildlife which offers a great source of entertainment whilst relaxing in the wood burning hot tub. Our hosts, Christina and Shaun couldnt do enough to make our stay as comfortable as possible they were so accommodating, ensuring the hot tub was ready for us when we got back from a day exploring the local area. Our boys enjoy fishing and there was two local lakes that we visited during our stay one in Portreath and another in Hayle. We would also recommend a visit to the Bassett Arms in Portreath the food was amazing!! This has been a truly memorable holiday for our family and would highly recommend The Lazy Lodge to others.
We were so delighted with this property all the comforts of home and more. What a welcome we received! The personal touches home made bread and biscuits, tea, coffee and milk provided. The hot tub was the icing on the cake. Christina and Shaun are the perfect hosts. Nothing is too much trouble for them and they welcome suggestions for improvement not that they need them Ifwhen we return to Cornwall they will be our first port of call. Having used Sykes cottages several times before lazy lodge is the best by far.
The property was lovely and clean. The little extra touches and attention to detail was very much appreciated. A lovely, chilled week. Thank you
Nicola

Lindsey
We have had the most amazing holiday in the Lazy Lodge. Christina and Shaun were fantastic and made us feel right at home. Our boys loved the homemade treats and we were even treated to a cake made for our anniversary. The lodge itself is beautiful and had everything we needed to make us comfortable and keep us entertained throughout. We will most certainly be returning again. Lindsey
We had a wonderful stay at Lazy Lodge. It had absolutely everything we couldve needed and so much more! There are plenty of lovely touches added throughout too! Christina and Shaun are extremely helpful and are happy to help wherever possible. The photos are great but you have to stay here in real life to appreciate the lodge and its surroundings.
We had an amazing time at Lazy Lodge, Christina and Shaun are fabulous hosts and the setting is beautiful. The Lodge had everything you needed and the hot tub was a welcome addition at the end of a day of exploring. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and can't wait to go back.
This is the perfect lodge for a peaceful retreat to get away from it all and be in a great location to explore Cornwall! Christina and Shaun are great hosts and have thought of every little lovely touch to make it a wonderful experience. The hot tub is lovely and the lodge has everything you need! Do not hesitate to book if you are thinking about it!
Excellent location, facilities etc Ideal for relaxation & chilling out! Definitely recommend & would visit again. First class!
