Tucked into the hills and hugged by woodland, Stonerush Lakes is a collection of design-led lodges in the Cornish countryside, where sun trap terraces and private hot tubs come as standard.

Part of the renowned Charteroak group, Stonerush Lakes is one of their four privately managed estates across Cornwall & Devon. Rest assured, these holiday parks are redefining any preconceptions you may have. Entertainment is not the priority here, think more rest and relaxation. This is the perfect place to recharge your batteries and immerse yourself in nature. Set across 28 acres of unspoilt valley, each lodge is carefully placed for maximum privacy, with views of the lake, trees, or hillside that make it hard to leave your balcony.

Inside, you’ll find modern kitchens, crisp linens, and airy openplan spaces. Outside, bubbling hot tubs and private decking call for lazy breakfasts serenaded by birdsong, sunset drinks, and the occasional moonlit soak. There’s a nature trail to stretch your legs, and if cooking feels like effort, you’re in luck, the on-site restaurant, The Old Mill, serves up crowd-pleasers with Cornish produce and a great selection of food and drink.

You’re just a short drive from Looe and Polperro, and within easy reach of the South West Coast Path if you’re craving sea views and wild air. But you’d be forgiven for not leaving the lakeside at all.

It’s calm, it’s spacious, and it’s built with grown-up getaways in mind, though little ones and dogs are welcome too. Whether you’re here for a romantic weekend, a base for exploring, or simply a change of pace, Stonerush strikes that rare balance between escape and ease.
