Bay View

Fantastic stay at Bayview!

We had a wonderful stay at Bayview and would highly recommend it. The lodge is beautifully presented, well maintained, and extremely comfortable. It is well equipped with everything you could need for a relaxing and enjoyable break away from home.The outdoor space is a real highlight, with a fantastic hot tub, plenty of comfortable seating areas, and sun loungers to make the most of the good weather. It's the perfect place to unwind and enjoy the peaceful surroundings.There is a small garden area at the front of the decking, which is a lovely addition. However, as the lodge is pet-friendly, a gate would be a welcome improvement to provide more security and peace of mind for guests with dogs.The lodge is located within The Residences, a private estate that is exceptionally quiet, well maintained, and beautifully kept. It's ideally positioned close to The Terrace Bar & Restaurant, while the centre of Portreath is just a pleasant 25-minute walk away.Overall, Bayview offers a perfect combination of comfort, quality, and tranquillity, making it an excellent choice for anyone looking to visit the area. We would not hesitate to return.

Loved this accommodation, family of 4 adults plus one 5 month old baby.

So many walks, could forget using the car if you wanted. Off road walk to the beach, not unduly steep for average fitness, also buggy friendly. Lovely hot tub with sea views. Lodge spacious enough for a holiday, showers good, beds and settees comfortable. Only comment, awareness there's a hot water tank so spacing out showers so there's enough hot water. Would definitely be happy to return.

As a family, we have just enjoyed our best UK holiday ever, thanks to absolutely fantastic weather and an excellent place to stay.

Prior to our arrival, I was aware that the owners had experienced a tough time after Covid and our lodge could do with some TLC. Whilst we did have some issues, these did not prevent us from really enjoying our accommodation, but as owners you should be aware of the following. 1) The dishwasher needed a filter clean and due to the dirtiest filter ever and stacks of pasta within, the smell was horrible when opening. After a thorough clean and a top up of salt, a hot wash cured the problem. 2) There was a slight Leek from the sink, but after tightening this stopped, however, there was a lasting damp smell. 3) Although the hot tub was spotlessly clean, there was a strange smell, perhaps chemicals, but not similar to other HT's used in the past. Don't be put off by my comments, we had a fantastic time and I'm sure as owners you are gradually giving the lodges TLC, as and when finances allow. On arrival and before being able to access the lodge, we enjoyed some fabulous food and cocktails in the Terrace bar. Your staff were brilliant and they made us very welcome. During our stay, I used the pool and this was excellent, but rather cool for me and certainly my Grandson. In conclusion, we would definitely come again and Portreath is a great location to travel around Cornwall on either side of the coast.

Bayview 108 is a lovely lodge in one of the best positions on the park, with sea views.

We have stayed in many different lodges at Gwel an Mor, and its location is excellent. Everything was tidy and comfortable, although some small details in the cleaning perhaps need attention. The toaster was a little unclean, and there were lots of cobwebs when you looked closely. On the surface, it appeared clean, but these were noticed after spending more time there. One thing my husband noticed when checking the cupboard was that the smoke alarms on the consumer unit were switched off. This may have been due to a fault previously, but we felt it was important to mention. The site is a little run down — Gwel used to be fantastic — but we understand that it is currently in administration and going through some changes. It would be nice to see it return to its former standard. Overall, we love Portreath, Cornwall, and Gwel. We had a fantastic week at Lodge 108 and would happily book again. Thank you.

We had a GREAT stay here, the views were pretty STUNNING - who doesn’t love looking at the sea in the distance!

The lodge was very comfy and had pretty much everything you need. In a great location - a short beautiful walk through woodland down to town and the beach and easy driving distance to everything in the area. Just a couple of little niggles from us - the bed in the master is probably due a new mattress - it’s a little lumpy. The hot tub was fixed at 40.5 degrees (we did speak to the owners about this who said they’d send someone out and gave us a workaround - which is fine for May but maybe not peak summer). Could really do with a hose pipe particularly for post beach furry friends and wet suits… The grounds generally around the lodge could do with a little bit of TLC - the hedge in front of the lodge could really do with a little prune to make the most of the GREAT view! Would definitely recommend a stay here! Thanks for having us!

Lovely lodge, in need of a deep clean though.

The parc facilities were good. Used the gym the pool and also base camp for the grandson. Lovely walks in the area Lodge was great for our 3 dogs we too along.

Bay view was amazing and spacious property for 4 adults and 2 grown children plus one large dog.

It had recently been refurbished and looks beautiful with views across to the sea. The beds were comfortable and we all slept well. We also enjoyed how this property was situated as it was very private, especially when using the got tub. None of us wanted to leave. Thank you for a wonderful holiday.

We've just got back from a week at bay View, We all had an amazing time away!

Jenna & Jamie are fabulous owners! any issues we had were sorted and solved in a very short time! Children were upset the pool wasn't open the entire week! which was a slight let down, but with 2 children with broken bones it wasn't a big loss. absolutely has nothing to do with Jenna & Jamie! Beautiful area,great bike tracksuit, lovely walks, great food and family time! Thank you again for letting us stay we will be back again very soon. X

We had a lovely stay at bay view, it was nice and clean when we arrived and had a gorgeous view.

Loved the log burner, they had some games and dvds to use which was a nice touch. Decor was lovely - bed comfy - lots of pillows - blinds & curtains really good. Jacuzzi was fab and lovely view along with it - a little cover over decking could be an added bonus for when it's raining and want to still be outside to enjoy the views. A few things we want to mention - we couldn't control the temperature (other than turning off the radiators in the bathroom) so the house was really warm so we had to have windows and doors open, especially when cooking. Fire poker set would be helpful to be able to move logs and put them in without burning yourself. Outdoor lights didn't work initially but after contacting the owners they sent someone round who fixed them which was great. It would have been helpful to have a map in the booklet to know where bins / gym / spa is as we had to walk around the block to find it ourselves and there aren’t any signs either on site (site flaw not the owners fault). Shower in spare bathroom not very hot compared to en suite shower room. Our biggest flaw would be the parking spots - you only get one per house and with 6 guests who might have 3 cars this isn’t ideal. We were lucky the neighbours weren’t staying when we were so could use their space (we had 2 cars). Otherwise we had a lovely stay, would highly recommend to others and if the little issues mentioned above were added I think would make this place amazing! ☺️

We had a lovely stay in Cornwall.

Accommodation very comfortable. Great hot tub. Well equipped kitchen - knives need sharpening! Loads of hot water, great showers. Could do with some extra lights in the path down to the lodge. We needed instructions for heating / air conditioning. We had to replace the batteries in the control units. Also there was no information about the site or facilities not even a site map. Enjoyed the pool and the golf course. Will certainly be back.

Our second time at Bayview.

Great position. Easy to walk into Portreath and to access beaches on the North and south Cornish coast. Spacious and clean accommodation. Good outside space too. Hot tub is well maintained. Well equipped kitchen, although fridge could be larger for 6 people. ( and smaller freezer). Owners responded above and beyond to an issue. Would highly recommend.

Great accommodation clean tidy and lovely setting.

Added bonus to be able to see the sea on a clear day. Great location ideal for visiting surrounding areas. Portreath a great little location and both the Portreath Arms & Basset Arms are worth a visit. Would we return in a heartbeat and already considering booking for next year

The initial cleanliness seemed fine until closer inspection.

Lots of crisp crumbs in the rug, lots and lots of cobwebs which must have been there for months, hair and fluff in the wardrobes and underneath toilet seat in ensuite had been missed. Lots of things to mention. The bedside light switch kept cracking and the spots would work intermittently so obviously a problem. Its ready for a deep clean and a bit of a revamp especially as it cost over £3000. We did message the owners on the numbers provided but no response. No bbq equipment and a three legged clothes dryer!

Our general first impression on arrival was a little disappointing as the approach to the lodge was a little overgrown and hedges needed trimming and the decking area was not clean (cobwebs and bird droppings etc) which gave a feeling of slight neglect.

However the accommodation was very comfortable with high class hot tub and the kitchen was fully equipped. Biggest disappointment was the nine hole golf course which was a far cry from the pictures you see on the web site. I suggest that the resort remove this facility from their website as it is obviously not maintained and is a negative aspect of the experience.

We had a wonderful stay at Bayview in Gwel an Mor.

The lodge was absolutely perfect for a relaxing break for my husband, myself, and our dog. It felt private and peaceful, with everything we needed. The location is ideal, quiet enough to feel like a proper escape, but close to the beach and lovely walks, which our dog loved. The lodge itself was modern, and very comfortable. We couldn’t have asked for a better base for our Cornish getaway, and we’re already looking forward to coming back. Highly recommend.

We had a lovely stay at the lodge and found it to be a very comfortable property and was nice and clean.

It is a fab place particularly for young children and our granddaughter loved visiting the soft play and farm. It is also a great place for families with dogs as there were some lovely walks directly from the lodge which was really great and good not to have to keep getting into the car! We also loved the hot tub! Thank you for a lovely stay!

Wonderful location, quiet and tucked away with a stunning view.

Bayview is well equipped and beautifully furnished. The outdoor area and hot tub made our stay even more enjoyable. Will definitely rebook.

Our stay at Bay View was perfect.

So well equipped and comfortable. A couple of small cleaning issues,mostly in the bathrooms,but easily sorted. Bed so comfortable. The amazing hot tub was very well used by us,gazing at the stars and super moon,what more can you ask for!, We are moving to Cornwall hopefully in the next two months but would certainly recommend staying here at Bay View as the whole complex is so well maintained. Thankyou for making our stay so perfect
