Angela, December 2023
Spacious and beautiful lodge for our big family. Enough room for us to not be in each others faces all the time. We loved the lounge upstairs and the fireplace / log burner was our highlight, not forgetting the Christmas tree beautifully decorated. Thank you ever so much. WE WILL BE BACK …

We had a wonderful stay here. Great lodge with large comfortable beds. The lounge upstairs is our favourite place to sit and watch the moon. Nothing needed, all equipment and utensils available even a great library. Also the best location to try all the beaches, and we tried them all!

RETALLACK RESORT…
Positioned within beautiful countryside, with easy access to the A39 only minutes away, you are well placed to explore Cornwall. Only a short drive to several golden beaches of the North Coast or if you would rather stay on site there is plenty to keep you occupied… Put your surfing skills to the test on the Flow Rider, take the ‘total wipeout’ style challenge on the inflatable Aqua Park, take a fishing lesson, walk on water with the water orbs or stand up paddle boarding, whether you are a first timer or a pro take the plunge into the lake for some serious wakeboarding or if you just feel like some sand between your toes, grab a deck chair and relax on the Retallack beach!
The watersports may be pay per use, but the site has plenty of other activities which are included in your stay… An indoor swimming pool, sauna and steam room, gym, 5k run route, kids club and more! There is a shop on site and a restaurant too, making life as easy as possible.
Retallack is centrally positioned close to several stunning beaches along the north Cornish coast, including Mawgan Porth, Watergate Bay, Fistral Beach, Constantine Bay, Treyarnon Bay and more.
The striking harbour town of Padstow is also within a fifteen minute drive, offering everything you need all in one place… Stunning coastal walks, gourmet restaurants, galleries and shops, beaches along the estuary, sea life safaris and speed boat trips, and of course as many pasties, ice creams and fish and chip shops as a town can fit!
