21 Meadow Retreat
Description
21 Meadow Retreat is a spacious two-bedroom lodge positioned on the edge of a private lake near Bodmin Moor and both Cornish coasts, its south-facing aspect capturing views across water and countryside.
Ideal for families or small groups seeking space and seclusion, it boasts a sunken hot tub on an expansive wrap-around deck, a master bedroom with dressing room, welcomes pets with secure outdoor facilities, and open-plan living flooded with natural light.
The bright open-plan living space embraces light and landscape from every angle.
Bi-folding doors dissolve the boundary between interior and the lake beyond, allowing the water and views to become integral to the living experience.
A fitted kitchen supports family meal preparation, whilst formal dining space and lounge areas provide flexibility for group living.
The master bedroom is a private sanctuary, featuring a king-size bed, stylish en-suite, and dedicated dressing room for unhurried preparation.
The twin bedroom delivers equal consideration, with patio doors positioned to frame the lake view from bed level.
Outside, the expansive wrap-around deck anchors the property's outdoor appeal.
The side elevation captures farmland and countryside perspectives, whilst the main south-facing section overlooks water and planted features.
The sunken hot tub occupies this prime position, ideal for evening immersion as light softens across the landscape.
From this lakeside position, both Cornish coasts deliver distinct appeal.
Head south to Looe's authentic harbour and beaches, Polperro's intimate streets, or Fowey's waterfront restaurants and galleries.
Travel north for Padstow's maritime energy, Polzeath's coastal vitality, or Port Isaac's clifftop authenticity.
Inland, Bodmin Moor unfolds immediately accessible, offering moorland walks suitable across all fitness levels and ages.
Family outings find ample provision nearby.
Adrenaline Quarry delivers adventure activities, the Eden Project showcases living collections, and the Lost Gardens of Heligan reward discovery.
The Old Mill Bar and Restaurant at Stonerush Lakes removes cooking obligations when preferred.

What guests are saying
First of all, Sykes' customer service was excellent and they addressed our concerns quickly and without hesitation.
The lodge itself was private, comfortable and we enjoyed our stay overall. However, several maintenance issues mean we wouldn't return to this particular lodge. The hot tub was the biggest disappointment: most of the jets barely worked, and by the end of our stay it stopped working completely and tripped the power to the lodge. The drinks fridge and en-suite shower were also not working, several light bulbs had blown, the outdoor dining table was damaged with corroded and broken legs, and the toilet flushes required excessive force to operate. Some general wear and tear is expected in a dog- and child-friendly property, but at this price we would expect the facilities and amenities to be properly maintained and fully functional. The lodge was clean inside, although the decking would benefit from a thorough jet wash. Southern Halt is a beautiful site with friendly staff, and we would happily return to the park. Unfortunately, due to the maintenance issues, we wouldn't choose Lodge 21 again.
Fantastic stay at this lodge.
Location is excellent - very near to Looe, Fowey and Polperro but super quiet with the only thing to hear being the birds. The lodge itself was great, really private and super clean.
Had a nice stay overall - the site was very peace and for us the location was good for access to everywhere we wanted to visit.
It’s a lovely lodge, but let down by a few points that look to have been mentioned by previous guests, but not rectified. The shower in the en-suite is unusable as the water just trickles out of the shower head - we tried to clear it, but ended up all having to share the shower in the main bathroom, which also had a very dirty shower head and poor water pressure. The outdoor table has a broken leg, meaning we couldn’t use it, which was disappointing given we visited during some very warm weather. There are no cushions for the outdoor seats, or no umbrella as shown in the photos. The whole outdoor area needs a good clean; the decking was dirty and we had to clean the chairs before we could use them. The sofa and chairs are all showing signs of wear/stained and the sofa-bed sofa is incredibly uncomfortable to sit on. The hot tub was spotless and well maintained throughout our stay - we just don’t think they should arrive on the final day to empty it until we have checked out. They arrived at 9am when we were outside having breakfast meaning we had to go inside with the dog. All of these are relatively minor points, but do have an overall impact on the stay. It’s not a cheap break and is a beautiful lodge, it just needs some TLC and should be better at the price point it’s advertised.
