Another lovely stay. If you come out of season, Perranporth Beach and Porthkidney beach are great for dogs. Also, Bassetts Wood, above Bassetts Cove is a good place to walk them.

Lovely cabin which although adjacent to the owner's house, feels private and enclosed and the garden is secure making it perfect for dogs. Our loopy Boxer had many a zoomie in it! Inside the cabin is light and airy with a cosy lounge area, small but perfectly formed kitchen area and bathroom with great shower. The bedrooms are clean and cosy with pRead morelenty of drawer space and some hanging space. The owners (Ali & Simon) are around if needed, which we didn't, just had the odd neighbourly chat! Hide

Wow. What a home from home! Perfect location for access to A30 and the whole county! Paddy (our pupp) had the run of the wonderful enclosed garden. Ali and Simon were perfect hosts and we felt so relaxed in this lovely peaceful lodge! Highly recommended!

Well what can I say? Lovely lodge with a fantastic enclosed garden. Quiet location with lovely hosts. Everything inside that you could need like hairdryer, iron, ironing board, all utensils, plates etc. Great base for going out. We went to Hayle, Porthtowan, Perranporth, Truro, Redruth and Newquay! All within a 10-20min drive. The dogs Willow and FRead moreern came to say hello and were lovely and the cats came to visit too :) All in all a great place to stay I would highly recommend to anyone!

We enjoyed staying at Terrigal Gilbert Lodge. Beautiful, quiet location, excellent enclosed garden, very useful for those with dogs. Only a few miles from Porthtowen with lovely walks along the cliffs. The lodge is very comfortable and has everything you need, although we couldn't find a milk jug or ramekins for marmalade etc. The bathroom is well Read moreequipped with an excellent shower. The owner, Mrs Maton, was very friendly and helpful and we would definitely come back again. Hide

A beautiful cabin, well equipped- we wanted for nothing. Gorgeous setting, with a fully enclosed large garden for our dogs to roam around in. The perfect location too, for visiting all of our favourite places and some new ones. We will definitely be back!

Wonderful stay , Ali was lovely. Great dog friendly garden however if your little fur baby is a bit curious keep a eye out for one of the far corners where they can climb up a bit. Ample cooking equipment, good size fridge freezer , everything you could need!
