  • "We have just had a very enjoyable week at Millers Lodge, we found the cottage very easily with the directions from the owners, parking was available opposite the cottage over the road, the key is in a key safe near the front door, the cottage is very well equipped with everything you could need for your stay,from the well equipped kitchen to the cosy and comfortable living spaces to the comfy bed upstairs, there is a train station at the bottom of the garden but the noise from it is hardly noticeable when you are inside the cottage, there is also a small stream running along the bottom of the garden which is very nice to listen to when you are sat out at the back of the house."

    The cottage is ideally placed for exploring Cornwall with good road links to all major routes. Would just like to say thanks to the owners fro supplying a lovely cream tea for us on our arrival, and a thank you to Sykes for an easy and problem free booking process again. All in all Millers Lodge is ideal for 2 people who just want to get away from the hustle and bustle of daily life for a while but not be to far away from all the essential amenities we all need. Ps WiFi is great too thanks.

    ! Everything spotless and Sarah & Jez really helpful. We used the train every day,just a walk to the end of the garden. Sue & Calum

    Thank you for being such great guests. You left the cottage so clean and tidy it did not look like you had been there for 3 weeks. The train is a definite plus for many of our guests. We hope to see you again sometime in the near future. Best wishes Sarah and Jez Property Owner

  • "Nice place."

    Rustic. It was a nice cottage with all the essentials we needed. We arrived to a lovely cream tea awaiting us in the kitchen. Parking across the road and easy access to the station. I was worried about the noise of the trains but this turned out to be quite a pleasant background sound. The river at the end of the garden was lovely when sitting there reading a book in the sunshine. Great stay and will hopefully book again.

    Thank you for such great feedback. We are really pleased that you enjoyed your time at Millers Lodge. We would be so delighted to have you stay with us again. Take care. Kindest regards Sarah and Jez Property Owner

  • "Thanks for our yummy cream tea and milk , a lovely welcoming."

    We have an old Sat Nav which would not accept this one, thanks very much for your help when I rang. Despite the rain , we enjoyed Millers Cottage and it’s beautiful surroundings.

    Thank you for staying with us. We are very sorry that there was no milk when you arrived. We had someone else do the clean that weekend and although we had provided them with milk scones and cream I can only assume that they had forgotten to pick that up with the rest of the items. I can only hope it’s not still in their car as it won’t smell very nice by now. We do hope to see you again sometime in the future. Best wishes Sarah and Jez Property Owner

    Unfortunately, during our stay the weather was not very good, it was wet and cold, it did take time to heat up the Cottage even with new electric radiators fitted. Overall this was a lovely place to stay, the owner called round to make sure everything was ok.

    You did have some awful weather.. I think waders would have been the item of clothing most worn that week. We sincerely hope that you will join us again in the future when the weather is better. Best wishes Sarah and Jez Property Owner

    A beautiful garden with a lovely stream at the bottom (we didn’t make much use of the garden as it was February ). The location is very rural and you definitely need a car to get about . Or you could make use of the train line that is right at the bottom of the garden . The trains going past are not noisy . You can hardly hear it. The cream tea that was left for us was very much appreciated. We would definitely recommend this property and would definitely re visit . Maybe in the summer next time to make use of the lovely outdoor space

    A perfect stay for two. Cottage extremely clean and very welcoming. Kitchen facilities were excellent. Milk and Scones a lovely welcome too.

Thank you letting us share your wonderful home.

  • "We loved our stay at Miller’s Lodge."

    The property was extremely comfortable and well-equipped with everything you could think of. We visited in mid November yet the cottage was warm and cosy with thoughtful books and good tv as well as a very nice kitchen to cook in during the winter evenings. The location just a two minute walk from the branch line station was really handy for trips to Looe, Liskeard or Plymouth - you could even arrive by train if you wished! There’s a lovely little tinkling brook at the end of the garden too! The WiFi in the cottage was excellent (despite Sykes saying it wasn’t!). We would highly recommend!

    Thank you so much for such lovely feedback. We are so pleased that the cottage provided you with a comfortable space to spend your time away. We have recently had the WIFI put in so we need to update Sykes on that.. it only took us 18 months to get that done!! Property Owner

However, these were the only downfalls of the property and overall it was an enjoyable stay. (Just not enjoyable shower)

The property

Nestled in the village of St. Keyne near Liskeard in Cornwall, is this fantastic one-bedroom, stone-built cottage, Miller’s Lodge.

Formerly a hay barn and piggery, Millers Lodge is situated in the setting of the Old Mill that stopped working in the 1960’s but has since been restored to a beautiful dwelling whilst maintaining many of its original features.

Miller’s Lodge is a fantastic base for a couple seeking a tranquil and romantic retreat, surrounded by the rolling Cornish countryside and with easy access to the coast, yet Only 10 minutes from the town of Liskeard.

Leave your vehicle in the off-road parking space, before making your way into your new home from home.

Be welcomed into the light and airy open-plan living space, where you can look forward to relaxing after a busy day exploring what Cornwall has to offer.

Impress your other half with tasty meals prepared in the well-equipped kitchen, formally the old piggery, featuring a handy washing machine and dishwasher.

Savour your meal at the dining table for two or, If the weather is nice you might choose to fire up the barbecue and eat in the enclosed patio area!.

After dinner, retire to the sitting room where you can kick-back and relax on the plush sofas in front of your favourite show on the TV with Freeview.

There is also an electric fire for cooler evenings.

On those warmer evenings, you may decide to take a drink out into the enclosed garden area where you can relax to the sounds of the birds and the river.

We would certainly recommend doing a spot of star gazing at night!

Climb the stairs up to the first floor, where you can wash away the day in the beautifully tiled shower room, before catching your rest in the cosy and comfortable double bedroom.

The single-track Looe Valley Railway line passes within 100 yards of the property, with the St Keyne Wishing Well a request stop away, meaning guests can enjoy a train ride into the picturesque fishing port of Looe or up to the main line at Liskeard and beyond.

Within Liskeard, you will find a wider selection of amenities, which include 2 well-stocked convenience stores, and the welcoming eateries of The King Doniert, The Himalayan Spice and Rumours, so there is plenty to choose from when you don’t feel like cooking!

For a day at the beach, head over to Looe, where you can bathe on the golden sands, and explore the delights the fishing town has to offer, or head over to Polperro, a neighbouring fishing village with its Harbour and Heritage Museum, dine at the Blue Peter Inn, or embark on a scenic hike along the famous Southwest Coast Path, offering some of the best sights and scenery in the area.

Why not put on your walking boots and explore the wide-open spaces of the Cornish moors, steeped in mining history with its old engine houses still standing proud above the land scape and take in the views that stretch for miles.

For a taste of city life, make the drive over to Truro, where you can marvel at the remarkable cathedral, picnic in Boscawen Park, delve into history at the Royal Cornwall Museum and the Truro Railway Station, or catch a live performance at the Hall for Cornwall.

Your next Cornish adventure awaits at Miller’s Lodge.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £100.
