Glamping Cabin - The Secret RoundhouseOct 2024

We booked this as a last minute stay for two nights and found a little gem. The accommodation is to a good standard and very tidy and clean. We were welcomed as soon as we arrived and even had a text to let us know our accommodation was ready. This was a nice touch and felt personal. We found the bed very comfortable however, we did find it a little strange cooking in the separate kitchen located in a separate cabin in the garden. There were no coffee/tea making facilities in the main cabin, only in the separate kitchen. Overall, we would recommend this accommodation as it was nice to have the privacy that this accommodation offers and we had an amazing stay. The hot tub was very relaxing and I can only imagine that in the warmer weather, this place really comes to life as you can make use of the garden to its full potential and the outside kitchen area.

Couldn’t ask for more!

Glamping Cabin - The Secret RoundhouseSep 2024

We had a wonderful week staying here. The location was great as we explored Cornwall during the day and then made the most of the hot tub, alfresco kitchen and fire pit in the evenings. Our room was clean and tasteful with under floor heating which was very cozy. The staff we came across were very kind and helpful, making it easy to communicate any needs.
