Trethowels Grey Hidden hut

Very peaceful and if we needed anything , a member of staff was there in minutes

I wanted to stay somewhere a little quirky and thought that this place would be ideal. There was a very steep lane on arrival. The hut shown in the picture is not the one we were in. We were under the impression that there was only one hut but we spotted 4 altogether. The reason I wanted the one in the photo was because it was close to the toilets as I have a stomach/digestion disorder and have to use the toilet during the night. We arrived about 4pm, unpacked the car and had a Quick Look around before it started to get dark. Toilets were further away than expected and the lights to guide you on the path were not working properly, thank goodness for my mobile phone torch. I was not happy trying to get to the toilets during the night with not much light and stepping in a large puddle which made things worse. The light above the door to the hut stayed on all night and there were no curtains across which I found very difficult to go to sleep. The hut was also on a building site with machinery down one end. This wasn’t as idyllic as I thought. We were only staying the one night and left at 7.30am, I didn’t bother even to have a shower as we only live 1.5 hours away. Apart from all this the place was clean with everything that you need was in it. Don’t go here when the weather is miserable and check that the building work has been finished and the lights work. Not suitable for small children. On a sunny day it would probably be okay.

Such high quality finish, superbly clean

A little hard to find but contacted the owner who was super helpful with extra directions

Amazing location amongst the misty forest landscape. The cabin is cosy and very clean, with all the amenities you will need. Kay provided some hot chocolate, which was a lovely touch. It definitely felt hidden! The shower was not initially functioning, but Kay resolved the issue straight away.

Despite knowing beforehand that the bathroom and toilet were held in a separate container outside, I was not prepared for the walk in the rain. It is something to be aware of even though it is very close.

It was such a fabulous little place to stay. It comes with everything you need for a relaxed trip away and a real bonus was just how quiet it was there. Perfect base location to go off and explore The Cornish coast

Just maybe a clearer sign at the top of the bend in the road but otherwise really not sure what else they could have done.

Spotlessly clean, fresh linens and kitchen wares, cosy lodge with welcoming touches such as lamps and blankets, super comfortable bed with nice bed linen and pillows, a fire pit outside, a great view of the trees and wild landscape around the site, private garden benches and picnic table for our use, luxury touches to the toilet block and the shower (toiletries, scent diffusers, hand towels).
