Lakeside Escape At Three Oaks

Lakeside Escape at Three Oaks is a handmade glamping pod for two beside a lake on a working farm in Treneglos, a quiet parish about seven miles west of Launceston. The one bedroom has a 4ft 6in double bed, and a compact kitchenette with a two-ring gas hob sits alongside the single bathroom.

The private deck faces the water and holds a wood-fired hot tub, a fire pit and a dining table for eating outside. A barbecue is provided, and one dog is welcome. There is no Wi-Fi, dishwasher, washing machine or EV charging, and the pod has no enclosed garden of its own. The farm delivers homemade pasties and ice cream to the deck for a small charge, and the owner runs yoga sessions there by arrangement.

Crackington Haven Beach is 6.5 miles from the farm and Millook Beach 7.1 miles, with Widemouth Bay a further 8.1 miles - all involve a drive rather than a walk. Bodmin Moor's open access land lies to the south, and Launceston is the nearest town for full services. Treneglos itself has no shops or pubs, just farmland and quiet lanes.

Twenty holidaycottages reviews give the pod a rating of 4.7 out of 5, with cleanliness, equipment, comfort and location each scoring 4. **Best for:** a couple wanting a farm setting, a private wood-fired hot tub, outdoor dining and space for one dog. **Less good for:** guests needing Wi-Fi, laundry or dishwasher facilities, an enclosed garden, or a beach within easy walking distance.
