About the area
Cornwall’s visitors are constantly tempted back to the beautiful coastline, tiny fishing villages, hidden coves and the world-class surfing. Whatever the reason, Cornwall has long cemented its place as one of Britain’s premier holiday destinations.
Lanreath is a village in South East Cornwall, just five miles from Looe. Lanreath is rural in character with a local shop and Post Office as well as a parish church. There are a number of ghost stories associated with Lanreath. The best-known features a ghost in black driving a coach pulled by a headless horse. Nearby Pelynt is home to a parish church, a number of local shops and pubs, especially the Jubilee Inn, which was an original farmhouse dating back to the 16th Century. Looe is Cornwall’s second largest fishing port and hence there is always a lively maritime bustle around the quay area of East Looe, which is connected to the quieter West Looe by a seven arched 19th century bridge over the River Looe.
8 Streamside is a contemporary lodge, nestled in to the edge of woodland on the 28 acres of Stonerush Lakes and flanked by a stream. Only two miles from Lanreath in Cornwall, it is a perfect base for couples, friends, and families exploring the region and relaxing in the peaceful countryside. The cosy lodge opens out on to a secluded decked terrace, with a sunken hot tub, and the floor to ceiling windows carry the woodland idyll inside as well as inviting light in through the open plan living, dining, and kitchen area and the bedrooms of the lodge. The kitchen is well-equipped for whipping up family meals, and you can gather around the table inside or make use of the outside furniture and eat alfresco on the private terrace. With enough comfy seating in the living area for everyone, it is easy to get cosy by the woodburner or settle after a long day of exploring the region. The master bedroom has a touch of luxury with its own Freeview TV, a modern en-suite shower room, and a plush king-size bed. Along the hall is a comfortable twin bedroom, and a family bathroom with both bath and shower over. Stonerush Lakes has The Old Mill, its own restaurant and bar, on site serving high quality regional fare, and a pool table and darts available to use there too. The nearby village of Lanreath has a community run village shop, and there is a wealth of traditional country pubs in the vicinity to take advantage of. The site has plenty of local walks right from the doorstep and, only a short trip further afield, Looe, Fowey, and Polperro are all archetypal Cornish coastal destinations, with easy access to beautiful heritage coastline and great beaches. A perfect base for exploring the surrounding area, this stylish lodge is ideal for relaxing together, be it in the hot tub, tucked up in front of the woodburner, or cosied up in bed watching the woodland outside.
