Set on the grounds of the Retallack Resort and Spa, on the outskirts of St Columb Major, Cornwall, rests this fabulous, four-bedroom holiday home, 207 The Glades. Perfect for large families, this three-floor property boasts fantastic positioning to on-site attractions and amenities, as well as tastefully-presented living areas, providing you and your loved ones with everything you need for fun-filled, self-catered Cornish escape.
Step inside your new home-away-from-home and be charmed by bright, vibrant interiors, including a fully-equipped kitchen, where the designated chef can prepare tasty, home-cooked meals to be enjoyed in the inviting living/dining room, complete with a wall-mounted TV, or even alfresco on the dining seating in the rear enclosed patio, which comes with an indulgent, private hot tub, perfect for relaxing in whilst you take in the tranquil, lakeside scenery. In the evenings, treat yourself to a long soak in a quirky jacuzzi bath or perhaps even a rejuvenating shower, before retiring to one of four, plush bedrooms, all of which come with a TV, with two enjoying access to balconies with stunning views of the lake and natural surroundings.
If you fancy exploring the resort, the indoor swimming pool, sauna and steam room, as well as the gym and weights room are free for guests to use during your stay. Fishing is also free for those bringing their own equipment.
Thrill seekers can experience the Flowrider, an innovative wave machine for body boarding and surfing all year round, or take part in seasonal watersports, on a lake near the lodge, which includes wakeboarding, paddle boarding and a giant inflatable aqua park. For extra pampering, indulge in a soothing facial or massage at the on-site Esya Spa.
Stock up on supplies at the aptly-named The Shop or even take a break from cooking one evening by booking a table at the The Lookout Restaurant & Lounge. For some family fun, Crantock beach has great sand for building castles, or scramble over the rocks at Treyarnon Bay to swim in a rockpool at low tide.
