“The lodge was fantastic and had all of the essentials we needed.”

Location was great and had lots of privacy. Our host Sally was very attentive and was at the end of a call or email. Already looking to book again.

“Very secluded.”

privacy has been given a lot of thought. The living area was well thought out with lovely views through the huge windows. Our dog also made himself very at home. The decking was slippery when wet for the dog but that’s only to be expected. It caused him no problems. Pretty clean and spacious. the hot tub was checked and maintained every day. We’d be happy to stay again if we didn’t live so far away.

- Kevin, September 2024

I am very pleased to hear how much you enjoyed your stay at 8 Horizon View, Richard, thank you for leaving us your thoughts and experiences. I am also delighted that you loved the hot tub and the beautiful views from the decking! What a shame that you live so far away! Sally, Guest Services, Charteroak Property Owner
Lisa July 2024

“Horizon View No.”

8 has been amazing. Comfortable, clean and exactly what was described. The views were amazing over the fields either sat having breakfast or when sat in the hot tub. The beautiful thing about the Southern Halt site is that each lodge is completely private. The staff are friendly and extremely helpful. Nothing was too much trouble and if we needed to speak to them they always followed up with a phone call. I would recommend this property to a family or friends wishing to holiday in Cornwall. The only disappointment was the weather but then we are never guaranteed that!!!

- Lisa, July 2024

Thank you so much for your amazing feedback Lisa, it is wonderful to hear that you loved your lodge and had a brilliant stay at Southern Halt! Thank you also for recommending us to family and friends, we really appreciate it. I hope that you will be back again very soon and hopefully next time the sun will shine for you! Sally, Guest Services, Charteroak Property Owner

Danielle September 2023

“We absolutely loved our stay!”

The place was simply stunning and the view was incredible that we had at the back of the lodge. Its by far our best weekend we’ve had away. If your a couple looking for a little break this is perfect for you. Your completely separate to others and the view that the back looks upon is simply stunning whilst enjoying the tub The staff are all lovely and the community are so friendly. We wish we found this stay before! We will 100000% be back and be recommending. Thank you for a beautiful stay

- Danielle, September 2023

Angela May 2023

“Hi we have stayed at this property before, we travel regularly to Cornwall my mams hometown she is now 83 and actually lived on Havett Rd in the 40/50’s as a farm.”

I had 3 lodges for my family 8,10 and 11. They were particularly clean and the decking dangerous for the little ones. There was a leak in the bathroom at 11 which looks like it had bern leaking for a long time by the colour of the wooden floor. We stay the same week every year not sure about next year now very disappointed.

- Angela, May 2023
Denis May 2023

“All good”

- Denis, May 2023

Beth November 2022

“There was a noticeable smell in the family bathroom which we reported on arrival.”

We were told to open windows and doors which we did do but it never really went away. I do not understand how when the property was checked earlier in the day it was not noticed as it was really strong. We just dealt with it. We did speak to the lady who we saw completing hot tub checks. There was not the usual amount of bubbles coming out of all the jets. She said she didn't have the right tools and would come back the next day to sort it. Two different people did come and clearly with tools trying to fix it but really it did not improve.

- Beth, November 2022

Thank you for your feedback Beth, we really do appreciate you taking the time to leave us your thoughts. I am so sorry to hear that you had an issue with your hot tub during your stay and also that there was an odour in the main bathroom. This lodge has recently undergone refurbishment, so these issues have now been rectified. I really hope you will come back one day to experience these changes. Sally, Guest Services, Charteroak Property Owner

Mrs Nicola Kirk Aug 2022

“The lodge is set in a lovely, peaceful location.”

There's nothing else on site but there is plenty to do out and about. Although we wouldn't recommend the pub down the road. The lodge is very comfortable & roomy. The view from the lodge is perfect & we felt very private from the other lodges. It had everything we needed. The only problem we had was there was a smell from the main bathroom. It was solved by putting the plugs in the plug holes. We had a lovely holiday

- Mrs Nicola Kirk, Aug 2022

Thank you for your great review we are glad you were able to explore some of the things that Cornwall has to offer and you had a lovely holiday. Property Owner
Mrs Christina Martin Aug 2022

“The bathroom emanated a sewage smell for the duration of our visit and despite reporting this a number of times the maintenance team was unable to rectify the issue.”

This resulted in a family of 4 being relegated to a small en-suite off the main bedroom as the main bathroom was unusable

- Mrs Christina Martin, Aug 2022
Mr Martin Creegan Jul 2022

“Excellent standard of accommodation.”

FYI. I did point out to the hot tub man that there was a loose plank outside and also I would point out to the owners there are 3 nail heads slightly protruding outside bedroom 2/bathroom. Didn't cause a problem you just might want to be aware. If we get back to Cornwall we will be happy to holiday at these chalets again.

- Mr Martin Creegan, Jul 2022

That is great thank you for such an excellent review we look forward to welcoming you back again. Property Owner
Mr Nick Owen Jun 2022

“Beautiful property with everything we needed.”

Hot tub fantastic and very private. Most comfortable bed ever in main bedroom. Would highly recommend and will definitely be back.

- Mr Nick Owen, Jun 2022

Thank you for such a great review and recommendation. Property Owner
Mr Clifford Brown Jun 2022

“Lovely place, thank you.”

Shame there wasn't the option of a thinner duvet though - the one provided was too hot for this time of year!

- Mr Clifford Brown, Jun 2022
Mr Ian Crabb May 2022

“Unfortunately we were very disappointed with this property.”

We stayed here in March and left feedback then that the property was not as shown in the photos. We consider that the items that were missing should remove it from the luxury class. When we arrived this time, on entering, the lodge immediately smelt damp. The problem was that the dishwasher was not working and had been leaking, and looking at the reviews, the previous visitors had already reported it. We called the required number to complain and it was replaced on the Saturday but the damp smell continued all week as the water had permeated into the wall and floor. This meant that when we were in the lodge we had to have the windows and doors open. We requested a change of lodge but were informed that there was no other lodge available. We were advised that we could return home and a full refund was offered, but this was not really an option as it was a four hour journey and we had a 11 month old baby with us. We had been looking forward to this break. There was also a sewage smell in the bathroom which stayed all week which we reported. Although we enjoyed our stay in Cornwall we did not enjoy our stay in the lodge. We believe that some compensation would be in order. We welcome your reply to this feedback. We have booked with Sykes cottages in the past and hope that we can do so in the future should this be resolved. You ask if we want the review published; we'll leave that decision to you.

The property

This luxurious holiday home is located in the idyllic village of Dobwalls, Cornwall.

Conveniently located opposite the southern Cornish coast and the slopes of Bodmin Moor, you'll discover accommodations of the finest quality.

Here, you may get away from it all and receive a friendly welcome.

The cotemporary fixtures and fittings complement the traditional furnishings and flooring to create an elegant space perfect for socialising and reminiscing with friends.

Create a feast for the whole family in this roomy kitchen, or just kick back with a good book and enjoy the silence.

Breathe in the clean Cornish air as you relax on the deck, which also features outdoor seating.

Just relax in the magnificent hot tub and look out at the landscape of green and yellow fields separated by rows of hedges and trees.

Allow a sense of calm to wash over you.

Things to see and do are many in the neighbourhood.

The picturesque Bodmin Moor, the beautiful Moyclare Garden in the summer months, and the adrenaline-inducing Adrenalin Quarry are all within easy driving distance.

Siblyback Lake is a beautiful body of water in the midst of Bodmin Moor, where you may go for a leisurely cruise or try your hand at other watersports.

If you're in the mood for a stroll through a labyrinth of unique streets and unique shops in search of a memento to take home, head to the neighbouring towns of Liskeard and Bodmin. Looe's gorgeous fishing harbour is perfect for a day of crabbing, and the town's monkey sanctuary is a delightful diversion.

Enjoy a beer while watching the boats leave the harbour.

Polperro is another charming village in Cornwall, with its winding lanes and brightly painted cottages, gift stores, and artisan bakeries.
