Mullion Cove Coastal Retreat

"Lodge was comfortable. Toilet facilities were a bit cramped. Well equipped, mostly as expected"

"We recently stayed at this lodge and, while the location itself is beautiful and well-situated, the accommodation was quite disappointing. The lodge is very dated and shabby, definitely in need of some modernisation. The TVs in the bedrooms only picked up one channel, which felt poor for todays standards.Although advertised as a lodge for 8 people, there was only one parking space available. We were told we could use a car park about a 5-minute walk away, but this was often full as its popular with people visiting the cove which made things inconvenient at times.On the positive side, the setting is lovely and peaceful, and there are a few shops just a 5-minute drive away. It worked well as a base for exploring the surrounding area, with plenty of great places to visit nearby.Overall, Id say this lodge is fine if youre mainly looking for a base and dont mind dated accommodation, but if youre after comfort or modern amenities, it might fall short of expectations."

"Lunch was lovely and clean, it needed a little bit of money spent on it and freshening up a little bit"

"Lovely one bedroom accommodation, with a nice hot tub."

"Our Mullion Cove Coastal Retreat review: Great value for money A lovely clean and well maintained lodgeAlready booked for next year"

"One word: gross!Filthy doesnt come close to describing this hell hole."

"Lovely lodge very well kept .only downfall was the curtains was very thin we would recommend blinds instead as all other lodges appear to have blinds instead of curtains.Kitchen area very spacious has everything you need. Recommend that you bring own knives if planning to cook as ones in lodge was very blunt and difficult to peel and cut with. Dishwasher and washing machine included and lodges have central heating and electric fire if needed"

"We have been looking to stay in Mullion for a number of years and clocked the location of this park when we made a trip to the cove last time we were in Cornwall and made a note of needing to stay here. We booked in advance and paid a premium for a half term stay. We had a premium lodge with a hot tub. Location is amazing and the surroundings are beautiful. Mullion is a very quiet and pleasant place to stay. The holiday was let down by the accommodation though and I know we paid more for half term but for the money you should expect the lodge to be clean. The en-suite smelt terrible, we aired and cleaned ourself but there was a constant odour so we avoided the room and kept the door closed. The floors were filthy and if you had nothing on your feet they would soon be black or your socks would be. Closer inspection saw large build ups of dust and dirt around the edges and corners and especially behind the blinds. The microwave was dirty and stank of curry so we avoided that and the sink was brown and stained. We did report and were offered a clean but this didnt need a service clean it needed a proper clean of which we did it ourselves. Once cleaned the stay was a lot more pleasant. The hot tub was well maintained with daily checks and was very clean although both of my daughters cut their foot on a bit of plastic sticking out of one of the underwear vents which was obviously not an ideal situation. I would love to recommend this place but it needs a good update and definitely needs a proper clean."

"Cleanliness of lodge was poor, cobwebs and dust with bedroom carpets stained and smelt of dog.main Lounge & kitchen floor still had food and sand on..Windows grubby Furniture worn & tired Oven old and settings all worn off Cushions on outdoor furniture had green mould on each one and 3 were missing from 8 chairs.Cleaning equipment was old and hoover had not been emptied for months that the filter had disintegrated.Darwin escapes need to improve the cleanliness of the lodges in Mullion Cove and replace worn & tired furniture if they are to market themselves as a luxury escape as they are very substandard."

"An absolutely lovely lodge with everything we needed! There was a dishwasher as well as the washing machine, iron and board, picnic basket and plenty of wardrobe space! The hot tub was secluded and well maintained. We were lucky with the weather and were able to have breakfast on the decking a few mornings. Definitely a place I hope to go back to!"

"Lodges are beautiful however, some could do with a little TLC. Grounds are kept lovely and clean with some lovely shrubs etc.Only gripe, would be nice if the "dog friendly" lodges had gates on them to prevent dogs escaping from the decking"

"Beautiful lodge hot tub was very relaxing and outdoor area lovely to sit and enjoy the sunshine very private and quiet"

"Lived every minute, clean tidy well equipped perfect location so cannot wait to return"

"Apart from reception there's nothing on site like a small shop or being able to buy necessities from reception.... like milk, bread, tea or coffee ... also they confidently have a barbecue attached to railing where you could use a disposable barbecue.... would be a good idea if these could be purchased from reception too ..... just include details on information sheet. I will say that the information sheet was informative for details of where things were available shops pubs etc.Our lodge did not have a smart TV but the WIFI and Mobil network was shockingly bad .... but the sire was down a hill and we had a couple of bad stories which I am sure affected them both.On the whole lodge was comfortable but was showing its age from others we had used. Lodge had been cleaned and beds made up but the decking needed to be swept and bird droppings removed from hot tub cover.Hot tub had jets missing and no head pillows or rests.Never understand why there is no runner from patio doors to bedrooms to stop slips and trips"

"Wouldn't recommend unless you want a holiday where you can do nothing"

"We had a 4 night stay at Mullian Cove and were so happy with the accommodation and how clean and tidy everything was. Everything we needed was stocked in the caravan including plates, cutlery, towels etc. The bed was very comfortable and the shower was so nice and powerful. The hot tub was hot on arrival and ready for us to use! Everything was perfect and we would highly recommend for a peaceful, comfortable and reasonably priced stay."

"Lovely place well laid out. Peaceful lovely surroundings. Central to a lot of places. Lovely beaches and walks"

"Great stay, would definitely come back!"

"We loved the peaceful setting and spacious chalet. The hot tub and deck really added a special touch. Cant wait to come back later this year! Definitely recommend."

"Perfect in every way! Tucked away, peaceful & plenty of room in the chalet. Hot tub & deck were great too! Booking again for later in the yr!"

"We booked this as a Birthday escape which we found a decent sized lodge. Our main attraction was the Hot Tub which was excellent. We used it every day and it was well maintained by the onsite team. When checking in the team were so nice to provide a pet bag with some essentials for the dog that stayed with us. The lodge was a great size and was looked after well. Do note that the site is in the bottom of a Valley and phone signal may not be available. This was great though as really brings a disconnection from the outside world. You can also connect to the sites WiFi which was good connection. We highly recommend and would stay here again."

"The lodge was perfectly comfy everything we wanted was there, its all very well laid out and immaculately clean on arrival the hot tub was great"

"Enjoyable stay"

"We had a lovely time during the February half term. Luckily the weather was good and in summer I can imagine it would be even nicer to visit."

"Lovely lodge in beautiful surroundings."

"This is a fantastic place for a getaway. The lodge offers everything you need in a self catering setting and the hot tub was a perfect addition to this trip. We return year on year and are never disappointed."

"Overall, were pretty pleased with the lodge. Just a couple of minor things, like some new cutlery knives, but nothing major at all."

"Lovely clean, spacious accommodation with a dishwasher and fully equipped kitchen."

"We've just wrapped up our third year staying at Mullion Cove Coastal Retreat and honestly, we had another fantastic week. The staff really go out of their way to be helpful-this time, they even let us borrow the luxury bathrobes for free since it was our wedding anniversary, which was such a lovely touch. The lodge was spotless and super comfy, just what we needed for a relaxing break. The hot tub was always pristine and checked daily, so no worries there. If I had to pick one thing, it would be the bed - it's quite squeaky and weve mentioned it every year, so maybe its finally time for a new one! Definitely recommend."

"Great holiday, can't wait to come back again soon!"

"Very relaxing holiday"

"Great location, 2 mins walk to Mullion Cove & short driving distance to beaches. Quiet & beautifully located. I would have given it 10/10 but the lodge wifi was temperamental & had to keep connecting & disconnecting for it to work. No mobile signal within a mile or 2. Overflow parking wasn’t secured (only 1 allocated car per lodge). Other than that, perfect holiday."

"A wonderful holiday with our dog. This is a peaceful small site. Walking distance to the cove but you will need to drive 5 minutes to get to the local shops. Our cabin came with a couple of bin bags, washing up cloth and liquid plus a tea towel, salt and pepper and some tea, coffee and sugar. Shower has sample sizes of shampoo, conditioner and shower gel to get your holiday started. One evening was a little chilly but the heating comes on instantly and makes it lovely and toasty. Hot tub is clean and well maintained and sat into the deck so even though your neighbours are close you do have privacy. Overall we loved it and would definitely retrun!"

"Lovely place to go on holiday to"

"Beautiful location, really quiet and not much going on, which is exactly what we wanted after a busy day of exploring all the amazing surrounding areas that are only a short drive away. This is our second time staying here and plan to come again :)"

"Had an amazing weekend stay! The lodge was lovely for the price we paid, very quiet, no noise in the evenings from other residents, situated in a lovely location, just a short drive from most places. Lovely harbour at the bottom of the street just a 2 minute walk which we spent most of our weekend on. Lovely sunset in the evenings which you are able to stand and watch, and a little private beach in the day time when the tide is out! Will definitely be returning. Staff were very helpful, we arrived early for check in with a 4 month old baby, they got our room cleaned and ready for us as quick as they could. Very nice place."

"We had a lovely week in our lodge. Very good spec & the hot tub was a family favourite ?"

"Lovely peaceful retreat"

"Lovely place to stay. Highly recommend 10/10"

"Would definitely go again and hopefully for longer."

"Staff were very pleasant but check-in from 4 on a Saturday and closed at 5 seems a bit strange."
