  • "Absolutely fantastic lodge to get away for a few days!"

    Everything has been thought of to help you settle quickly, just unpack your bags and the holiday begins. If I were to be critical, I would say the mattresses needs replacing as it is very lumpy and has dips. However, this by no means is in any way a negative reflection of the overall lodge, it honestly is a great little treasure!

    Thank you so much for leaving us your thoughts after your stay at Rebecca, I am so happy to hear that you had such a lovely time. I am so sorry that you found the mattress uncomfortable, this is due to replaced in the very near future! Hopefully we will be able to welcome you back to see us again very soon!

  • "The property was even better than we thought it might be."

    We had everything we needed in the kitchen to be able to cook meals. The living space was more than adequate for 2 people and we loved the layout. The hot tub was a lovely luxury after a long day exploring and unlike other lodges we’ve stayed in the interior was well looked after.

    Wow! What am amazing review Marie, it's so lovely to hear how much you enjoyed your stay at 11 Meadow Retreat. Hopefully you will be back to see us again very soon! Sally, Guest Services, Charteroak Property Owner

  • "Everything was top notch!"

    We was really happy with our experience at 11 meadow retreat. Everything was super clean and tidy. My girlfriend absolutely loved it and vows to stay here now every time we come down to Cornwall. She can be fussy at times with accommodation but she did not have one bad word to say about your property. I only have one tiny little niggle and some may think it’s silly but I want to mention it to you only for you to be able to improve all you can. That being the pressure of the shower wasn’t the strongest. Although, I understand there is a lot that goes into water pressure and it may not be your fault if you don’t have the best provider or your area suffers from poor pressure. However, this didn’t affect my stay what so ever, it was just one tiny little thing. We look forward to staying with yourselves again!

    Thank you so much for your incredible feedback Jamie, I am so pleased to hear that Southern Halt will become your home-from-home! With regards to the water pressure, unfortunately, this is not something we have been able to resolve, although our maintenance manager is still looking at various possibilities. We can't wait to see you again in the future! Sally, Guest Services, Charteroak Property Owner

  • "It was our first holiday in a lodge and we weren’t disappointed."

    The location was perfect for the peace and quiet which we wanted. The layout and cleanliness of the lodge was exceptional. Everything was provided and ready to use prior to our arrival. We have already recommended this location to others in our family and friends circle. We will be looking at returning next year. There is one minor point but may be an owners issue, but there was no shade for us to sit in as at one point it became really hot and my wife had to retreat from the hot-tub and seek refuge back in the lodge. Perhaps a pull out awning or umbrella on the decking near the hot-tub would help.

    I am so happy after reading your lovely feedback David, thank you so much for letting us know how much you enjoyed your stay at 11 Meadow Retreat and also for recommending us to your friends and family! We are now able to provide parasols on request, so hopefully if you return, which I hope you do, you will be able to enjoy your hot tub without discomfort.

    Everything in the lodge was well presented and well stocked. We relaxed as soon as we entered the property and looked forward to returning after a long day out and about. The whole complex was beautifully laid out and well maintained.

    The lodge was clean and tidy for our arrival. Wifi is pretty good for a secluded area and the heating/hot water comes through very quickly Hot tubs are cleaned at topped up daily which is a nice touch.

  • "I have stayed at this accommodation three times before and we have never had any problems before but at our recent stay last week I contacted Charter Oak Reception and left them a voicemail message to contact me (reception is not open on a Sunday) as we had some ‘loud banging’ from the lodge which kept us awake on Saturday night."

    I awaited a phone call first thing on the Monday re: the problem but received a courtesy phone call and email in the afternoon instead to ask how our stay was going. I replied to their email explaining what had happened but I got no response. We ended up resolving it our selves and they did not check up on us. Quite disappointing.

    I am so very sorry that you feel disappointed after your stay with us at 11 Meadow Retreat, Andrea and that you had issues with a noisy unfastened gate. I hope despite this issue you were still able to enjoy your holiday and that the lodge was everything you hoped it would be. I know that the Guest Services Administrator at Southern Halt did try to contact you, but was unfortunately unable to and that you did manage to rectify the issue yourselves, which we are grateful for. I sincerely hope that you will come back to stay with us for a fifth time in the future, as we really do value our returning guests. Sally, Guest Services, Charteroak Property Owner

    We really appreciate you leaving us your thoughts John, it is always so helpful to get feedback. Unfortunately, as the lodges are self-catering, we only supply an emergency amount of toilet rolls and dishwasher tablets, to keep you going for the first night, so apologies if you were not aware of this. We have now received instruction signs for all our hot tubs, which we are in the process of fitting, so thank you for your comment.

  • "We had a fabulous week, loved the lodge, had everything we needed."

    Great shower, bed and lovely big TV We particularly loved the outdoor hot tub (probably one of the reasons why I chose the lodge) after a day walking or cycling it was a real treat to take a dip in the hot tub. Also we were extremely impressed that the hot tub was checked everyday. The Southern Halt site seems extremely well organised and would definitely return, in fact we will probably book number 11 Meadow Retreat again, we loved the large outdoor space/ decking and although you can see the other lodges you feel very private because of all the bushes and trees.

  • "This was our first time at these lodges but we'll definitely be back."

    The lodge was very well equipped with good quality utensils and we even had a nice welcome pack with tea/coffee and milk. The location is great for visiting different beaches as it's quite close to the A38 but you wouldn't know as it was really quiet and peaceful. The only negative if I'm forced was they could do with some sort of fan as it got really hot inside despite opening the windows and skylights. We'll definitely visit again.

    I am so happy to hear how you enjoyed your first visit to Southern Halt and that you loved 11 Meadow Retreat! Thank you for your suggestion of a fan for the lodge in the very hot weather; we do have fans available on request from the reception, so I am so sorry you were not aware of this.

    When I arrived it was absolutely pristine. I did spend some days in the cabin and watched a film on the fantastic TV. The hot tub was lovely and so relaxing, I spent a couple of evenings in there and saw a few shooting stars. The facilities in the cabin were excellent. I look forward to returning.

  • "No washing machine in the facility, which I do not feel is good for £300 per night stay!"

    Check out at 10am, understandably during Covid 19, but that has now passed. Having to strip beds also is not really what I want to do on holiday, Covid 19 is here to live with... not really acceptable. It was OK stay, not worth £300 per night! Hot tub no matter what, was far too hot to sit in, made you feel dizzy!

    Thank you for your feedback. We can confirm that there is a washer dryer in the property which you can see on the pictures on Sykes web site, the door to the washing machine is the opposite side of the countertop near the dining chair that is orange. Check out does need to be 10 am as the lodges need to be cleaned and the hot tubs emptied before the next guests arrive at 4pm. This is nothing to do with Covid 19 as the times were the same before the disease. As the weather was very warm the hot tubs can seem that bit hotter. Property Owner

    Number 11 Meadow Retreat far exceeded our expectations. From the moment we arrived to the moment we left we loved every minute of our stay. Would not hesitate to recommend this lodge to anyone, just wished we lived just a wee bit closer! Would love to return for another wonderfully situated holiday. Thanks to all concerned.

    Thank you for a perfect review and recommendation, we are glad you loved every minute of your stay and would love for you to return in the future. Property Owner

  • "We had a really wonderful stay in this lovely lodge where you couldn’t fail to relax."

    It was so comfortable and immaculate. The hot tub and spa bath was an added bonus. There were numerous places to visit within easy travelling distance. The only small drawback was there wasn’t really anywhere that you could walk to for an evening meal, we tried the village pub but although very friendly staff , it didn’t meet our expectations for food and was rather tired looking.

    Thank you for a wonderful review we are glad you enjoyed your stay and were able to relax in both the hot tub and spa bath. Property Owner
