Our 2nd visit to Wheal Metal Lodge and we booked our 3rd whilst we were there.
Our 2nd visit to Wheal Metal Lodge and we booked our 3rd whilst we were there. Wonderful base to return to after a day exploring and very cosy if the weather is a bit iffy. Comfort and cleanliness plus a very well stocked/maintained garden to relax in. Great location for exploring this end of Cornwall, nothing seems more than a 40 minute drive away and often much less. Friendly, helpful but not intrusive owners. The benchmark for how a good holiday cottage should be.

We had a fantastic weeks stay in this lovely lodge.
We had a fantastic weeks stay in this lovely lodge. The location is stunning so quiet and peaceful yet a short drive from all the resorts and supermarkets. The lodge is beautiful with lovely furnishings and everything you could want for a relaxing stay, set in its own private gardens and is spotlessly clean and really comfy beds. The owners are lovely and very helpful and the property is a credit to them. Would have no hesitation in highly recommending this lodge and we will certainly stay again.

Had a great week here.
Had a great week here. Gary was on hand to welcome us and see us settled in. Very cosy lodge, which a choice of garden areas in which to sit and relax.
Very impressed by the high standards generally throughout the accommodation.
We found this a very convenient base from which to explore the area. Beaches (eg Praa Sands) close by, plus several gardens and heritage sites.
We would recommend this accommodation.
