“We loved our stay and the surroundings are amazing!”

The only slight snag was the loud squeaky floorboards. So every time someone walked anywhere in the property, there were loud creaks from the floor which meant we were disturbed if anyone got up in the night or moved around the lodge. If the creaky floor was solved then it would get 5 stars.

“Very comfortable with all mod cons !”

Parking right outside the property for at least Three cars , disabled facilities are excellent with wheelchair access all round inside and out ! A Dogs paradise with so many places for walkies without a lead ! A tip , do a food shop on line before you go down and get it delivered on day of arrival after 5 p.m. , you have to give further instructions for delivery in a box , unless you want to shop every couple of days ,ugh ! Take toilet rolls (1 supplied) , Bleach for Kitchen sink and toilets just to keep them fresh ! Yes I would give this property a 5 star rating , what I've written in this feedback is more in depth information for guests rather than the owner , enjoy !!

“We have been coming to the lodges over several years and there is always a warm welcome from Michelle.”

We like the position and quietness of The Killiow Estate and the cabins are always spotlessly clean and extremely well managed by Michelle where nothing is a bother in order to make you comfortable. I am not sure the lodges would be the same without that attention to detail which gives a “ home from home” feel. The service provided by Michelle and her team allows you to overlook a few flaws that are obviously there…(uncomfortable overcrowded sofas, squeaky floorboards and bed).

“It's a fantastic lodge with excellent bedrooms and showers Inc wet room .”

Lounge is comfy and kitchen is fantastic has everything and looks brilliant . Location is superb central for visiting various places and including pubs and supermarkets. Only negative point is wood needs treating on outside of lodge

“The property was excellent on such a lovely place.”

Very quiet and private with lots of grounds to walk dogs. Beautiful countryside and not far into Truro or supermarkets. We had a fabulous time with days out to Newquay, Truro, Mevagissey Couldn’t fault the Lodge it was spacious with 3 Bedrooms and 3 shower rooms. Everyone enjoyed our stay in 2 lodges.

“We had a really enjoyable stay at the Killiow Lodges.”

4 of us stayed and 1 child in the sleeps 6 Lodge. Michelle was very welcoming on arrival, nice touch of a bottle of milk and a welcome gift of short bread, fudge and tea. First impressions, it was exactly as we had seen on the photos. The lodge had all utensils etc for cooking but we were unable to locate a pair of kitchen scissors. Great layout, plenty of space in bedrooms for travel cot for our little one. Really good access for our little one who is disabled, with the parking right next to the lodge, ramp up to the lodge and all on one level. Short walk around the lodges and on to the old golf course was a nice stroll too. Very central for exploring the sights of Cornwall. Tesco, Aldi, Lidl and Sainsburys all a very short drive away. If using Google maps, use The Kea Church hall to get you back, seemed to work for us. Some places we would recommend *Cousin Jack's fish and chips (Truro) *Cherry Blossom cafe (Padstow) *The Ranch (steak and grill) Falmouth *The County Arms (Truro)

“We had a fabulous stay here!”

The lodge was fantastic - it was bigger than expected, very clean, and the facilities were top-notch. We especially enjoyed having our own robes which were provided! The location of the lodge was also brilliant - we were close to many places in Cornwall. The lodge itself was on a very peaceful site which was lovely. Michelle was also brilliant! Thank you for a wonderful stay :)

“We had a brilliant stay.”

The lodge was really clean, comfortable and well equipped. Very peaceful site with lots of open space for our dogs.

“Absolutely fabulous!”

The lodge was so much bigger than expected. The views were gorgeous. The dog walks were perfect! The standard in the lodge was so high that we did not want to return home! Already booked again for next year.

“The lodge was perfect, large, clean, spacious and very well appointed.”

Comfortable beds and settees and bonus having a TV in each bedroom. The setting was lovely, quite rural but only a few minutes from Truro. Michelle made sure everything was ok. We've stayed all over Cornwall and this was the best.

- Clive, April 2023
Suzanne June 2022

“This is our second time staying in this lodge and it felt like coming home.”

Everything we needed in a lovely peaceful setting. Nicely located within easy driving distance of Truro, towns, places of interest and beaches. We will be coming again!

“We stayed with just the two (49 and 50 years) of us and two large dogs (6 and 9 years), for one week in May 2022 at Oak.”

From the start till the end it was a great and perfect stay. What a beautiful place to stay. The rooms are light and large. There are three bedrooms, two with ensuite and one with a seperate bathroom. The living is openplanned with the kitchen and has beautiful views. There are smart TV’s, oven, coffeemaker, mircowave, washer and a dryer (very easy). Michelle is a wonderfull operational manager, such a lovely person. The grounds are perfect for walking the dogs, we used the path just across the cabins (the old golf course) and that walk is a mile to the gate. Super for the morning/ last evening walk. Truro is very close, perfect for shopping. Easy acces for daytrips to the east- or westside seashores. We and our dogs loved staying at Oak on the estate of Killiow. Michelle, Thank you very much for everything and see you next time! Greetings from the Netherlands.

“We had a lovely weeks stay in oak lodge.”

The lodge was spotlessly clean and smelt nice and fresh as you walked through the door, even a chair for the wet room shower was provided by Michelle for my wife as she is disabled. The lodges are placed a good distance apart from each other so you are not directly overlooked by your neighbour. The lodges are in a rural area surrounded by fields and being away from main roads are nice and quiet.

Lynda April 2022

“It's lovely & quiet, beds amazing & very clean We had a 6+ hour journey, I think checking in at 5 is too late especially when you expect guests to check out at 10!”

The Oak was lovely BUT the floor throughout the property was so noisy you couldn't move about quietly and by the end of the week it was very annoying The fire wood was supplied but with nothing to light it with The seating was ok for four people but definitely not for 6

- Lynda, April 2022

Thank you for taking the time to leave some feedback. The floors in the lodges are all solid oak floorboards and every effort has been made to make them as quiet as possible to walk on. We provide two UK made 3-seater sofas for our guests to enjoy, as well as 6 chairs at the dining room table. And due to our insurance, we are not allowed t provide matches to light the wood burner. All guests can always contact our housekeeper who would always be happy to help. Property Owner

“It was perfect Place so relaxing there was four of us in our party .”

That stay there so much space for us all ..the owner has thought of everything that makes your stay very enjoyable..the lovely touch of the welcome package of thing that you need when you arrive was most appreciated and she come and meet us on arrival because we could not get in

“This is our second visit, and we loved it just as much as the first.”

We stayed in a different eco-lodge, but it was identical to the first one we stayed in. We will be returning next year. The welcome back gifts were excellent, thank you.

- Robert, August 2021
Martin August 2021

“Great Lodge and location.”

We had a lovely week and the Lodge was a big part of that. We had everything we needed and more. Michelle was so helpful throughout the whole process. Lots to do and places to visit but great to return to such a quiet and relaxing location. Great for walking the dog too. Would love to stay again, highly recommended.

- Martin, August 2021
Anna July 2021

“Absolutely gorgeous cabin, plenty space, clean and very comfortable.”

The bedrooms are really good size with beds setup as superking, there is everything in the cabin from hairdryer, towels, bathrobes and an iron so you needn’t take any of that with you. . surroundings are stunning and the location is excellent as very central to everywhere.. love the little touch of welcome pack with tea, biscuits and fudge. Really nice idea. The only thing i would say is that as we were there in warm weather (July 21), the cabin gets super hot so sleeping is a bit of an issue even with windows open, no air coming in so fan would be good. Highly recommend staying here. We will return

- Anna, July 2021
Mrs May 2021

“A lovely welcome from Michelle, including lots of helpful advice.”

We would have felt happy to contact her at any time if we had any problems. A lovely quiet get away with lots of space and privacy. Fantastic location with Falmouth, Perranporth and Newquay all being max 35 mins, and the lovely little Loe Beach only 8 minutes drive. Super close to Truro as well, so something for everyone.

Alison September 2020

“The lodge was lovely, modern throughout with en suite bedrooms for 2 rooms and one bedroom with a large shower nearby, the kitchen was fully equipped with all accessories including an Amazon Alexa!”

The lounge was bright and airy with patio doors leading out to a decking area, we sat here in the mornings enjoying our breakfast! Just a couple of gripes, the lodge should have been covid cleaned but there were cobwebs in every room and tops of picture frames and skirting boards hadnt been cleaned, under the beds were dusty too, i feel terrible at mentioning this as the lodge itself is beauriful but i run a small cleaning company and couldnt help seeing what hadnt been done, in my business we have to follow strict covid guidelines. But on the whole the holiday was beautiful with fantastic weather, please visit the 3 miles of beach near St Ives bay which the dogs absolutely loved, its recently been voted one of the best beaches in the UK! Port Isaac is lovely but gets really busy, Newquay is quite commercialised but of thats your thing then you'll love it!

Ann August 2020

“Wonderful week at Oak Lodge, was super impressed with the quality of furnishings, wonderful beds, comfortable sofas, great siting of the Lodge which allowed more privacy than we expected with the other 7 lodges, dog friendly area clean and well maintained, very quiet and relaxing surrounding areas.”

Extremely well equipped with everything you needed, warm and attentive welcome..everything you need for a superb staycation.

- Ann, August 2020
Susanne August 2020

“Everyone in our party thought Oak was amazing.”

I have never stayed anywhere that had such a well equipped kitchen! From Killiow we visited places on the north and south coast without to much travellng. It was a little difficult to find initially.

- Susanne, August 2020
Tracey August 2020

“Accommodation has everything you would need; beds are really comfy and rooms are spacious; lovely bathrooms too.”

Michelle was really friendly and helpful and answered all our questions, spending time to make sure everything was right for us. Shame about the golf course being closed but it did mean the children could roam further on the grounds and maybe in the future hot tubs on the balconies would be a great extra:) Would definitely recommend.
