Situated right on the Gannel Estuary – a tidal inlet where the River Gannel meets the sea – this boutique-standard coastal retreat offers a truly unique natural experience.
With uninterrupted 180-degree panoramic views across the ever-changing estuary, guests will witness the waters filling up during high tide and revealing expansive sandbanks at low tide.
You’ll never tire of this view during your stay.
At high tide, the Gannel becomes the perfect playground for paddleboarding, kayaking, or foil boarding.
At low tide, you can enjoy breathtaking walks all the way to Crantock Beach, or even go horse riding along the sandbanks – all just a few steps away through your garden gate.
The property’s direct access to the water is a standout feature that truly enhances the experience.
The enclosed, river-facing garden is ideal for alfresco breakfasts, relaxed lunches, or evening barbecues with the estuary as your backdrop.
Inside, the lodge has been tastefully styled by its owners to a boutique finish, with hand-picked furnishings and thoughtful design throughout.
Sleeping up to eight guests across four beautifully appointed bedrooms, each room features plush beds dressed in crisp cotton linens, wool throws, and generous wardrobe space.
The open-plan kitchen and dining room is equipped with high-end appliances and a Smart TV, and opens directly onto the terrace – allowing the chef to stay connected with guests while enjoying the view.
A separate, spacious lounge offers a second Smart TV, inviting sofas, and an electric stove-effect fire, creating a cosy atmosphere ideal for winter breaks.
Guests are welcome to log in to their own Netflix or Amazon Prime accounts for a personalised entertainment experience.
For wet weather days, the indoor garage includes a multi-games table with air hockey and billiards – perfect for keeping everyone entertained.
