Guests that stayed at this property said
The lodge generally receives high marks for cleanliness, with guests describing it as 'perfectly clean' and 'tidy'. However, a few guests mentioned minor issues such as cobwebs and leaves on the terrace, suggesting room for improvement.
The location is highly praised for being peaceful, quiet, and easily accessible, with proximity to villages, harbour towns, and seaside resorts. The scenic beauty of Cornwall adds to the appeal, making it a desirable destination.
Comfort is a standout feature, with guests finding the bedroom spacious and the living areas comfortable. The lodge's provision of a comfortable settee, large TV, and additional amenities like a cinema room and sauna contribute to a relaxing stay.
Facilities are generally well-received, with the cinema room, sauna, and jacuzzi bath being highlights. Some guests encountered maintenance issues with appliances and suggested the addition of items like a shelf in the shower. The lack of a hot tub, despite some expectations, is noted.
While guests mention thoughtful gestures such as balloons for a birthday celebration and a bottle on arrival, as well as mini toiletries and a kitchen pack, there is not enough consistent information across reviews to accurately score this category. It should be noted that such gifts are not guaranteed.

Dobwalls, a small settlement near Liskeard, Bodmin Moor, and the stunning north and south Cornish beaches, is bordered by farms and woods. The lovely fishing harbours of Looe, Fowey, and Polperro are 15 miles south, while Padstow and the surfing beach at Polzeath are a pleasant drive on the North Coast.

The luxury lodge with private setting, the spa room, the thoughtful mini toiletries and kitchen pack all added to a wonderful weekend away. The staff were friendly and helpful and in regular contact to make sure that the weekend was trouble and stress free. I would recommend this site to any family and friends.

Well maintained throughout with lots to do and explore. Of particular note the sauna and cinema room which we found enormously useful when the weather failed us! The grounds were really nice and spacious and we woke up to rabbits in the garden most mornings. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our time at 2 Southern Place and would recommend it.

Near reception was a big patch with grass with a hill at the back that has a path zigzagging to the top for some gorgeous views. This was a nice place to walk the dog on bad weather days or to end the day. The staff were lovely and accommodating and gave us great recommendations for places to go nearby. It's nice having the sister site with the old mill restaurant we arrived early for check in so went there for drinks and they let us know when we could check in and it is close to Southern Halt. Amenities were great and WiFi was great I could plug my firestick tv into the TV and watch things easily. Day 1 we were looking at coming back in the future.
