Well-equipped cabin with ensuite double room and private outdoor space

It’s always a quandary whittling down where to haul yourself for a hol in Cornwall, but this quiet retreat is likely to be high up on the list. Wild Eyedeer’s cosy cabin is set on 13 acres of farmland in the Maen Valley, a half-hour walk from the South West Coast Path and Swanpool beach. The park is also on the edge of the lovely Lizard Peninsula and close to Falmouth’s shops, supermarkets and restaurants, as well as being a 10-minute drive from dolphin watching at the Helford estuary. Once you've (hopefully) snapped some shots of the sea beasts, head home to sprawl out on the benches at your private verandah or on the decking opening up to the garden. There's a firepit to keep you warm, along with two dining tables and chairs for indoor and outdoor use. Inside, the cabin is stylishly designed and equipped with a kitchen corner, a dining table and chairs, and a radio. At the far end is a comfortable double bed, made up for your arrival, along with a small single bedroom that's just right for a kid. The ensuite facilities include a toilet and a separate wetroom with a small bath with overhead shower; there's no TV but you can bring a laptop or tablet and stream shows using the free wifi. In the mornings, Fen and Jeremy are on site to welcome you and see if the chickens have laid some eggs for your breakfast. Alternatively, order food in one of the cafés at Budock Water, a small village three miles away with a handful of eateries and a few independent shops. The cabin has adjacent parking and is accessed via a long driveway through farmland.

Local attractions

This site is a 10-minute drive from Helford estuary, between the western edge of Falmouth Bay and the eastern side of the Lizard Peninsula. Walks on the South West Coast Path are especially satisfying in this area of stunning scenery and marine ecology, with towering cliffs and secluded coves to admire enroute. For beach days, the sands of Maenporth, Gylly and Swanpool are all within 10 minutes or so by car, while inland attractions include Trebah Garden (10 minutes' drive), Glendurgan Garden (10 minutes), the National Maritime Museum (15 minutes) and Pendennis Castle (15 minutes). More into golf than historical explores? Get out on the green at Falmouth Golf Club (five minutes away).
