A touch of magic and a home from home gem 😀 – I liked everything about the Clotted Cream! A very well thought out little pod! Great use of space, a well equipped kitchen, bathroom, dining room and king size beds! One bed was made up from the dining area which had wooden slats, so it gave great support for sleeping in and was very comfy. Plenty of sockets, some nice touches were the DCB radio and gifts of Prosecco and little flower seeds! Nothing was too much trouble. Beautiful view during the day and the pod was lit up with fairy lights at night…which made everything look magical. A good decking area, fire pit, egg chair and double bench for dining alfresco under the stars was also a plus! A local pub about a mile away with nice food options and dog friendly. There was also a lovely cafe and farm shop that sold fresh produce, newspapers, fresh food, alcohol etc..in fact it sold absolutely everything.. even wood for the fire pit! This place is a gem that is rarely found and the location is magnificent! There is no tv, but plenty of fun can be had with board games and books etc. There is also plenty of space for children to play outside or for the dog. If you are looking for a relaxing tranquil holiday in a fabulous location then this is the place for you! 😞 – Nothing!

Well worth a visit, brilliant one of a kind accommodation set in beautiful scenery. We travelled with an under 2 and dog, all loved the experience. Emma and the family were very accommodating pre and during our stay. Great recommendations for the best local pastys and cream tea! The accommodation was clean, comfortable and a well managed space with good kitchen amenities. We ordered the breakfast hamper which was delicious, and did us over 2 days with left overs to take home. Thanks again Lydcott Glamping!! X

5 star rating Home from home with a few feathering friends chucked in! What an amazing set up. They have literally thought of everything. Really clean, comfortable and cozy! Great idea. Would definitely recommend. Lovely riverside walk to the local pub which took just over an hour and 10 mins drive to Looe/Polperro.

Amazing place to stay, the cabins are wonderful. We stayed over new years so the weather wasn’t great out but the cabins were cosy enough to shelter in. Can imagine even better in the summer when you can utilise the fire pit and outdoor furniture. The facilities are great and perfect location for exploring north Cornwall. Place is very easy to find

5 star rating Rest and recuperation A great time away in such a peaceful location. Emma and Rich are welcoming hosts, not forgetting the dogs! Will definitely come here again. A convenient base to explore Looe, Polperro, Golitho Falls and the south coastline.

  1. We stayed in Clotted Cream for 3 nights. The pod is fantastic and equipped with everything you need. A wonderfully comfy bed, great shower and amazing views. The whole environment is peaceful and calm! As a couple nearer our 70’s than our 60’s this just goes to show glamping is for everyone! This is glamping at its best!
    Also worthy of a mention is the speed all emails and queries were dealt with and how accommodating Emma was in extending our voucher.

    1. Ah thankyou so much and we’re so happy you loved it. Hope to welcome you back sometime! Emma and Rich x
