About this property
Serendipity Lodge
This newly refurbished three bedroom luxury lodge sits within Whitsand Bay Fort, a coastal site offering on-site indoor pool, restaurant, bar, cafe/shop, and other communal amenities.
Located on the beautiful Rame Peninsula, the property is up in an elevated position and offers far reaching views across fields and out to Plymouth Sound. With Freathy Beach in walking distance from the lodge, you can make your way down the stunning (and steep!) cliff path and be on the sand in minutes. Plenty of other local beaches are also less than a mile away, and Millbrook, Kingsand and Cawsand all within easy reach to explore – you will be spoilt for choice with where to go first!
Within the lodge, there is a spacious bright open plan kitchen, living and dining area which is smartly furnished and has all the home comforts you will want to relax and enjoy your holiday. There is a Samsung Smart TV with DVD player, X-Box 360 with 2 controllers and 29 games, bluetooth speaker/with i-phone charger, comfortable sofas, and a large dining table, perfect for coming together for family meals.
The modern kitchen area has all the equipment and amenities you'll need during your stay, and there is even a utility area with washing machine.
The bedrooms are all beautifully dressed, with comfortable beds and plenty of storage space. The master bedroom has a double bed, and contemporary en-suite shower room with toilet and basin. The second bedroom has 2 full size single beds, and the third has bunk beds. There is a main family bathroom complete with shower over the bath.
Double doors from the triple aspect living room lead outside to a beautifully finished decking area, with garden furniture for that all-important siesta after a morning at the beach.
The indoor pool is open and available free of charge for guests staying in our lodges. Enjoy one complimentary 1-hour swim session for each night of your stay. Simply pop by Reception to book your preferred time slot.
Other attractions in the local area include Royal William Yard, an historic Grade I listed victualling yard, and National Trust's Anthony House, which is less than a 15 minute drive away.
There is one parking space included for the lodge in the car park, but more parking is available on a pay and display basis. Please note that you cannot drive up to the lodge, cars must remain in the car park by reception. There are wheeled trolleys to help you move your luggage.

A great break away, spectacular views and very comfortable lodge
Views from the lodge were amazing and very comfortable stay with well equipped kitchen, beach towers and toiletries. On site ‘Fort’ pub great food and walking distance to cliff top cafe and (steep) path to Treganhawk beach
Because of the outside lit pathways at night, the curtains let in a lot of light, so black out curtains or blinds would aid a better nights .

A little slice of heaven for a week
Beautifully appointed. Well maintained and superb position with fabulous views. It was peaceful and relaxing. Site facilities were also superb with a good quality restaurant, friendly bar and entertainment. Kids also enjoyed the pool. Owner nearby, not intrusive but helpful when asked. Ideal.
Nothing.

Great place, great location great lodge, just great
What a great place, we were attending a passing out parade at HMS Raleigh for my grand daughter, a lot of the family from different parts of the country, and as the grand father of the group I can honestly say on behalf of all the family we loved it.
Hard to find the lodge in the dark when we arrived, I and one other in the party have some mobility problems and we though with the limited light that each of the lodges could have been easily found if they had had reflective numbers on them, to reflect the small lights that illuminate the walk way,

Sehr entspannend und tolle Lage in der Nähe von Rame Head und Polhawn Fort. Plymouth 30min.
Dir Lage ist hervorragend. Die Wohnung ist perfekt geschnitten. Der Parkplatz ist gut zu erreichen. Zwei tolle Café (Clifftop und The view) sind in der Nähe. Eine Bushaltestelle ist direkt an der Anlage. Tolle Veranda mit 160 Grad Blick auf Torpoint und Plymouth. Sehr nette Betreuung durch Peter.
Küchenutensilien können ergänzt werden (Schneebesen, spülbürste, Mikrowellenhaube,..)
