2 Faraway Fields is a thoughtfully crafted, cedar-clad lodge resting quietly in the Cornish countryside, well placed for the harbour towns of Looe, Polperro and Fowey to the south and the open, rugged landscapes of Bodmin Moor just inland.
Created for couples and small families looking for privacy, seclusion and a true sense of getting away, this single-storey retreat combines generous, characterful interiors with a natural setting that immediately encourages a slower pace.
As you arrive, calm settles in straight away, with windswept wildflowers, gently moving trees and a sense of stillness that lingers throughout your stay.
The lodge enjoys a private position within its surroundings, with gentle trails leading directly from the front door and a friendly onsite team available throughout your visit.
Inside, the space feels bright and full of character, with a skylight above the kitchen and multiple patio doors allowing daylight to pour in, while elevated countryside views give the living area a real feeling of openness.
An exposed beam adds depth and warmth overhead, and two leather sofas are arranged to face the view, an inviting spot to watch the light change across the landscape before settling in for an evening film.
The kitchen is well equipped with wooden worktops and crisp white fittings, offering everything needed for relaxed meals at the breakfast bar or around the dining table.
The main bedroom features a king-size bed with hotel-quality linens, an en-suite shower room and patio doors opening out onto the decking, while the twin bedroom suits younger guests and is served by a separate family bathroom finished with fluffy towels and carefully chosen toiletries.
Outside, a wide lawn leads to a generous decked area where the hot tub takes centre stage at any time of year, warm water beneath an open sky, lingering sunsets and clear, star-filled nights creating moments that feel truly special.
Afterwards, step out wrapped in a boutique bathrobe and enjoy the fresh evening air, while rabbits move quietly along the edges of the grounds and birdsong drifts from the surrounding woodland as stillness settles in.
When an evening out appeals, the Old Mill Bar and Restaurant at nearby Stonerush Lakes offers wood-fired pizzas, handcrafted cocktails and waterside tables in a welcoming, atmospheric setting.
While wonderfully peaceful, 2 Faraway Fields is ideally positioned for exploring Cornwall, with Looe, Polperro and Fowey offering rewarding days along the south coast, Bodmin Moor, Cardinham Woods and Siblyback Lake providing walks from dramatic to gentle, and Golitha Falls making an excellent choice for a picnic.
The north coast, including Padstow, Port Isaac, Newquay and Polzeath, is easily reached by car, as is Plymouth for a city day out, while beaches range from sheltered coves such as Talland Bay and Readymoney Cove to East Looe Beach, complete with paddleboard and kayak hire and seasonal lifeguard cover.
Much of the coastline is linked by the South West Coast Path, and family days out are well catered for with the Eden Project, Lost Gardens of Heligan, Carnglaze Caverns, Porfell Wildlife Park, the Shipwreck Treasure Museum at Charlestown and Adrenaline Quarry all nearby, alongside boat trips and sea safaris departing from Looe.
2 Faraway Fields is a quiet, characterful retreat at the heart of Cornwall and a place that feels easy to return to.
