2 Stonerush Valley

2 Stonerush Valley is a 2-bedroom lodge on the Stonerush Valley resort beside a stream and small lake near Lanreath, in a quiet fold of the south Cornwall hills between Looe and Liskeard. A private hot tub sits on the decked terrace, and the lodge sleeps 4 across two bedrooms with two bathrooms. WiFi, parking, and a washing machine are included.

Dogs are welcome, and the garden with outdoor seating gives space for them to settle after coastal walks. Lansallos Beach - a narrow cove reached by a steep footpath through National Trust farmland - is 4.3 miles south along the lanes.

Lantic Bay, a remote horseshoe beach with dramatic cliffs on the Fowey approaches, is 5 miles. Talland Bay, a small sheltered beach with a pub and a café above the cove, is 5.1 miles. Looe's fishing harbour - known for its seasonal shark-angling industry operating from the quay - is within easy reach.

Suits couples or small families who want a rural resort setting with a hot tub and dog facilities, within reach of several quiet National Trust coves. Less good for guests expecting resort-style on-site facilities beyond the hot tub and stream - this is a working farm valley rather than a managed holiday park.
