  • "Our fourth stay……uncommercial…."

    A picture of the real Cornwall…,.lots of new equipment this year. Exotic animals in the field and The Gurnard’s Head is only a couple of miles away! (The owners are lovely too!)

    The place was amazing beds comfy all mod cons they even left cake biscuits tea bags and coffee and milk for us on arrival. Would definitely go back

  • "A lovely, spacious property with beautiful countryside views."

    The wooden building has a cosy, homely feel, and it is very well-equipped. Being able to take dogs is a real bonus — ours loved their time there. The Lodge is within easy reach of St Just and Penzance, with St Ives, Hayle and Porthcurno just a little further on. If you're interested in ancient history, there are several local sites that are well worth a visit: Chun Castle, Chysauster, and Carn Euny to name but a few. Definitely recommended.

    The only issue we would mention is the access to the lodge from the "main road". This last 5 minutes drive along a single track road is quite challenging with limited (no) signage to the lodge.

    The large furnished patio and extensive grounds face out onto stunning Penwith moorland and the interior is both spacious and comfortable. We also had the most comprehensive Welcome Basket provided on our arrival that we’ve had anywhere which was a lovely and generous gesture. Few holiday properties warrant a return visit in the future but this is certainly one to use again when we’re next in the Penzance area. Many thanks to the owners for their hospitality and assistance.

    The lodge was very clean, well equipped with lots of lovely clean glasses and a great number of dinner plates, cutlery etc *which I am guessing were all new in response to an earlier review) and the space was amazing, there were 8 of us which included 2 children. It was very peaceful and the outside space was great too, especially for the dog. A very generous welcome pack was waiting for us on arrival and Nicola is on hand if you need her but leaves you to enjoy your holiday. We have stayed at the other smaller property, Carne Vue, and we felt exactly the same about that holiday. We would certainly recommend both of these holiday cottages to friends and we plan to return.

    The layout of the Lodge is ideal for a family get together. The Lodge had all the essentials needed to support our needs.

The roads leading to the lodge are narrow but not to be phased by that as drivers are very careful and there are many passing places. A great holiday was had by all!

    Felt still. In the middle of nowhere! Quality appliances, spacious & thought through designs.eg. TV in all bedrooms. Animals in the garden entertained our grandchildren no end! Plenty of sofas/chairs etc. Excellent shower facilities. Areas for improvement include more and decent cutlery. Some crockery chipped. And replacements of cloudy through constant dish washing, glasses which are horrible ascetically. Small things which detract from the ‘classines’ of the property. But overall well appointed & lovely modern home from home in a stunning setting. We loved the time spent here.

The property

With a Scandinavian style interior, Chywolow Lodge sits in the tiny hamlet of Great Bosullow within 3 miles of Penzance, is perfect for respite and for those with limited mobility.

Wheelchair friendly.

Far reaching countryside views and an incredible sense of space make this a fabulous rural retreat surrounded by beautiful moorland, Iron Age settlements and mysterious standing stones.

The property is set on a seventy acre farm and there is a field with ponies and Alpacas.

All on the ground floor, this holiday bolthole makes a great base for family and friends.

The open plan living area with kitchen, dining and sitting area is good for gatherings, relaxation and feasts.

There are four comfortable bedrooms all with TV's and one with en-suite shower room, plus a family bathroom and garden room.

The terrace is perfect for sunny breakfasts and the expanse of grass around the property is perfect for a game.

This is a walker's paradise so bring your boots and head out across the moors to the North Coast.

Nearby Pendeen has local facilities plus a pub but we recommend heading North to Gurnards Head where there is a food lover's delight; The Gurnards Head.

The nearest white sandy beach is the hidden Portheras Cove between Pendeen and Morvah but better known Sennen Cove is only a short drive west.

Penzance is 15 minutes and St Ives can be reached within 25 minutes drive, both towns are worthy of a visit with some great cafes, restaurants and galleries to peruse.

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

About the location

PENZANCE

St Ives 8 miles. Helicopter to Isles of Scilly - 30 minutes

Penzance hosts Golowan, the Midsummer Carnival, and The Literary Festival. There are also The Exchange, Newlyn and Penlee Art Galleries. One of Cornwall’s most popular holiday areas is the spectacular sweep of Mount’s Bay, from the cliffside fishing village of Mousehole through Penzance and around to beautiful Marazion, the coastline hides a wealth of sandy beaches, rocky coves as well as winding village streets and other places to visit and explore. Connected by a causeway to the shore at Marazion is the National Trust’s stunningly beautiful St Michael’s Mount with its hilltop castle and Mediterranean gardens. Walk across at low water and take one of the ferry boats back when the tide is up. Penzance with its winding streets, shops, clubs, restaurants and harbour is a must as it is the jumping-off point for day trips to the Isles of Scilly as well as being the harbor. The South West Coast Path passing through Penzance winds its way along the clifftops towards Land’s End. On the way, stop off for a coffee and a rest at beautiful Lamorna Cove, explore the open air Minack Theatre and marvel at the cliffs as you approach Gwennap Head. A stunning walk for those seeking solitude, exercise and some of the UK’s best coastal scenery. Penzance is the perfect holiday base. Ideally placed for exploring this land of Celtic myth and legend and with enough to do and see in the immediate area to keep all the family occupied.
