Gillan Creek Retreat, nestled in Treggidden, Cornwall, offers a unique eco-friendly getaway ideal for couples seeking relaxation and adventure. This luxurious shepherd's hut, set in a private meadow on the picturesque Lizard Peninsula, features a king-size four-poster bed adorned with Egyptian cotton bedding, a power shower, and a well-equipped kitchenette. Guests can enjoy modern comforts while being surrounded by the natural beauty of an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, making it a perfect base for exploring nearby beaches and scenic coves.
The retreat is designed for ultimate comfort, with amenities including a wood-burning stove for cozy evenings and a private wood-fired hot tub, where guests can unwind under the stars while listening to the sounds of nature. A charming Hobbit-style barbecue lodge is also available, allowing visitors to cook outdoors regardless of the weather, or simply enjoy roasting marshmallows around the fire pit. The serene environment is complemented by the presence of friendly chickens, and guests may even spot deer wandering through the meadow.
Despite being an off-grid retreat, Gillan Creek offers modern conveniences such as fresh running water, a hot shower, and Wi-Fi, all powered by solar energy. The hut is equipped with essential kitchen appliances, and guests can savor complimentary eggs from the resident chickens, enhancing the rustic charm of their stay. The property also features relaxing outdoor spaces, including a double hammock and a swinging chair, perfect for enjoying the tranquil surroundings and bird song.
While the retreat promises a peaceful escape, it is important to note that there is ongoing construction work in the adjacent field, which may affect the tranquility during weekdays. To accommodate this, mid-week rates have been reduced. The retreat is pet-friendly, allowing two small dogs for an additional fee, making it an ideal getaway for pet owners. With its blend of luxury, nature, and unique features, Gillan Creek Retreat stands out as a memorable destination for couples looking to reconnect and unwind.
