  • Well-appointed family accommodation on a peaceful Cornish farm
  • Roadford Lake 15 minutes' drive; Bude half an hour
  • Spacious two-bedroom lodge a short walk from a private pond
From making your way over tors and forests to paddling and fishing off the shore of Cornish seaside havens, Country View Lodge at East Panson will kickstart your adventures in Cornwall and Devon. That’s because this rural site is in the Cornish countryside, within easy reach of the county's north and south coasts, as well as the border with Devon. You’ll be cosy here… in the grounds of a working farm, the lodge accommodation has two bedrooms, an open-plan kitchen, a bright and airy lounge, a dining area and a half-length bath with a shower in the bathroom. Alfresco meals are bound to be on the menu, as there’s also outdoor decking with seating where you can relax in the open air, a barbecue and a small garden area. Elsewhere on the farm, there’s a peaceful nature pond where you can sit, feed and watch the fish, but for those of you who are itching to explore the local area, you could make a beeline for the two well-liked local pubs, village shop and post office in the tiny village you’re staying in, called Saint Giles on the Heath – these handy spots are only five minutes' drive away. As for those cool places that are further afield, Country View Lodge is approximately a quarter of an hour's drive from Roadford Lake and half an hour from the seaside town of Bude, with historic fishing villages, crazy coastal castles and rainforest biomes all options for other days out.

What customers say

Guests love the peaceful setting and super clean, well-equipped lodges. Comfy furniture, a great shower, kitchenette, and BBQ are big hits. Owners are lovely and helpful with local tips. It's a perfect base for exploring Cornwall. Lodges can get warm; a fan was suggested. Many guests return!

Pondside 1 bedroom cabin

Liked The setting is wonderful. The cabin very lovely, well equipped and comfortable, set in an exceptionally peaceful position. Fabulous shower, great little kitchenette, BBQ and lots of seating outside. The host is very lovely; friendly with lots of helpful info on the cabin and surrounding area.

Disliked The only thing I felt was missing was a fan as the cabin was very, very warm!

2 bedroom lodge

Liked It was easy to find using the Google maps location provided in our confirmation email. The owner was absolutely lovely and welcoming. Car could be parked under cover right by the entrance, so unloading was nice and easy.
Accommodation was clean and well kept throughout with plenty of storage, fully equipped kitchen, comfortable beds and beautiful views!
There is plenty to do with or without children in the area, so you won't get bored. Ours also really loved the sheep in the field right next to us!
Already hoping to book again to stay for a relaxing weekend away.

Local attractions

So, you want watersports? Get off to a flying start at Roadford Lake (15 minutes' drive), where there are kayaks, canoes, paddleboards and sailing boats for hire, or activities like archery and climbing onshore. Seeking out trails? Forests, tors, Bronze Age circles and valleys can be tracked down around Dartmoor National Park (20 minutes), including the long-distance Two Moors Way, Dartmoor Way or Templer Way. The coast has all sorts of activities on offer, from surfing on Bude’s beach (half an hour) and rowing on the canal to a wreck fishing trip from Boscastle harbour (40 minutes), or crabbing from the Victorian bridge in the fishing village of Looe (an hour). The crazy landscape of Tintagel Castle (50 minutes) will turn your tour of the coast into something a little more historical, with Arthurian legends swirling around Merlin’s Cave. There’s also the Dingles Fairground Heritage Centre (20 minutes) for anyone who’d like to see the rides that were used in the first incarnations of the fairground. With rainforest and Mediterranean biomes, a zipwire and a giant swing, it’s easy to see why Eden Project (50 minutes) is such a big Cornwall attraction, so get on down there too.
