Cornish Pine 18

Cornish Pine 18 is a two-bedroom lodge for five in Notter, a hamlet in south-east Cornwall. The king-size bedroom takes the adults, while the triple room sleeps three across a bunk bed and an additional single. One bathroom serves the whole group, which is worth planning around with a full house of five.

The lodge has a private hot tub, an open fire and its own garden, with parking and an EV charging point outside. Shared facilities across the site add a heated outdoor pool in the summer season, a tennis court, a children's play area and a stream for fishing. Up to two dogs can join. There is no Wi-Fi, dishwasher or washing machine, so the lodge suits guests happy to spend a few days offline more than a long self-catered stay.

This is an inland base rather than a walk-to-beach stay. Whitsand Bay is 6.1 miles away, Downderry Beach is 6.3 miles and Kingsand's village beach is 7.5 miles, so coast days mean a short drive in either direction.

Twenty guest reviews rate the lodge 4.4 out of 5, with cleanliness, equipment, comfort and location each scoring 4. Host Joanne manages the booking.

**Best for:** families with children who want bunks, a private hot tub, summer pool access and room for two dogs.

**Less good for:** a group of five needing more than one bathroom, guests who rely on Wi-Fi or laundry facilities, and anyone needing step-free access.
