Set in wonderful scenery and surroundings, with a beautiful tree covered road up to the Cabin . We were warmly greated by Ralph, who made us feel very welcome and advised us on everything we needed to know about the property. We have loved si tting in the enclosed garden using the facilities and watching the birds flying in and out using the bird feeder. Thank you for a fantastic stay.

Loved this place! quiet and peaceful but close enough to Bodmin, StAustell (and would highly recommend Charlestown) and the surrounding areas to be just right in terms of location. Would 100% stay again the next time we visit the Cornish south coast.

The Cabin Retreat was a peaceful and tranquil place to stay. Jakey our dog felt very welcome and the garden was safe for him too. The garden was lovely with a variety of places to sit and enjoy. The facilities were of a high standard and it as a wonderful place to stay. We will be back.
Rose
Beautiful Peaceful Place. Ralph met us and explained where everything was and if we needed him he was there for us. Total privacy and dog secure. The Cabin has everything you need the bed is very comfortable and you have all the equipment for cooking, the hot tub was most welcome after a day exploring. We absolutely loved the walks so close and enj oyed exploring the Helman Tor with our Black Lab Milo. The heating was a perfect temperature. Sorry to be going home after a wonderful week.
Dave
A truly peaceful property, located perfectly that you are in the countryside but still not far from a lovely town where you can get what ever you need. Very welcoming host, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay
Lee
The Cabin Retreat does exactly what it says - it's a perfect bolthole to get away from it all and forget about any stresses and strains. We had a couple of days of dodgy weather, but still felt relaxed as we watched the rain on the windows. When it's dry, there's plenty to do on your doorstep. Climbing Helman Tor feels like an achievement, while we also hit both the south and north coasts. And the hot tub was a delight once Riley the dog was snoring on the rug of an evening!
Jane
The Cabin Retreat totally justifies its name! Beautifully quiet, everything is provided to a high standard. The hot tub is an added treat, and if you are into bird watching, you can sit in the tub sipping your Prosecco and watch birds at the same time. I saw 15 different species, 3 of which I'd never seen before! The property is completely enclosed and dog friendly, but take your dog's bed.
Maddie
Lovely place to stay! Will definitely be returning!
Alex
This truly is a remarkable place to stay and we really did enjoy ourselves! We had the best of both worlds, we could chill in the cozy (it really was a home away from home) cabin and take a dip in the jacuzzi or venture out to the MANY nearby places suitable for us and our 11-month-old puppy. Loved how dog-friendly Cornwall is and most definitely w ill be returning again. Thank you again for ensuring our holiday was a wonderful one :)
Jessica
Absolutely perfect! The cabin is beautiful and the hosts were so lovely. Stunning location with a private garden and hot tub. Very dog friendly and our pup loved it! Highly recommend!!
