Award Winning Luxury Coastal Shepherd's Hut with Hot Tub, Dining Dome, Outdoor Kitchen and Pizza Oven in Gorgeous Polperro, Cornwall.

Penlea Retreat is the perfect place to escape the hustle and bustle of life and relax. Our luxurious shepherds hut is set in its own private 150 ft garden with wooded glade and pond on the edge of beautiful Polperro, Cornwall. Enjoy the peace and rural charm of the surrounding area, while being just a 5-minute walk away from the village's pubs, restaurants and beach.

Enjoy our luxurious wood-fired hot tub with beautiful L.E.D underwater lighting. Listen to the owls hooting while sipping your favourite tipple and relax. Logs to heat the tub once per day are provided. Additional logs can be purchased at £10 per sack.

Dine in style in our fantastic new dining dome. It's like eating alfresco but indoors so you can enjoy your meal whatever the weather. The dome now has a mini woodburner and is a great place to sit back and relax, read, play a board game or just enjoy the view.

The dome and outdoor kitchen is for your own exclusive use and is included with your booking - there is no extra to pay.

Opposite the dome you have an outdoor kitchen. Learn to prepare and cook perfect pizzas with our wood fired Ooni pizza oven or grill your favourite dishes on your charcoal barbecue.

Our pizza package is only £20 per day/night for direct bookers and includes oven, dough, tomato sauce and fuel plus a lesson - bring your own favourite toppings. You can book the pizza package when booking your stay.

For the barbecue you need to bring your own charcoal plus whatever you plan on grilling.

Inside your hut you'll find a sumptuous double bed with luxury linen, a smart TV, a full kitchen with an induction hob, mini oven and an electric wood burning style stove. Every thing you need to ensure a good sleep, watch a movie or cook a feast.

A rare luxury in a shepherd's hut is our full bathroom complete with shower, flushing toilet, basin and heated towel rail.

What's more, you're just a five minute walk from beautiful Polperro harbour where you'll find pubs bursting with character, top quality restaurants and shops for groceries and even a fresh fish kiosk on the harbour. Boat trips to Looe and Fowey run regularly subject to the weather and you can also spend a couple of hours mackerel fishing.

Rare in Polperro is your own private parking space at the foot of the steps that lead up to your hut. No need to struggle with luggage from the village car park.

One of the most beautiful stays we've been to down in Cornwall. The location was gorgeous and so peaceful. Would recommend hiring the pizza oven as it was very fun to make and delicious! The host was very friendly and helpful. Overall, we had a lovely stay and would love to come again!

Wow.... Simply Stunning!! Arrived at the property with very well explained instructions and was greeted by Tim who explained how the hot tub was best used. From start to finish of this booking and arriving was everything and more. We only stayed for two nights but honestly we can not wait to book another time for longer. This property is just simply beautiful and the hot tub and globe are a lovely welcome to enjoy whilst your on your holidays. So nice to be able to walk into Looe for a wonder around and enjoy the views. The globe was wonderful, we enjoyed our breakfast and evening meals in here and put the fire on late at night to watch the stars and listern to the rain. This was a beautiful stay and would 100% highly recommend. Thank you again for making our stay so wonderful and peaceful, it definitely was the perfect setting to enjoy celebrating my birthday. Kindest Regards Hannah & Luke

This place is stunning! we loved everything about it, we also used the pizza oven while there which was fab. The hot tub was great for relaxing after a day of exploring and so easy to use. The hut had everything you needed, the fresh scones with cream and jam were delicious and a really nice touch. Thank you for a lovely stay ☺️
