• "Just returned from a relaxing week at Tor Down Quarry."

  Comfortable, clean lodge with great hot tub that was very relaxing in evening watching the sun set. This was a perfect holiday with our dogs who enjoyed swimming and paddle boarding with my children in the lakes onsite. Kristy was very friendly and gave us and our dogs a warm welcome with lovely homemade scones and treats for our dogs. Will definitely be returning next year.

• "We had a great time, at costentyn tor down quarry, cleanliness was excellent, hot tub was ready for us, kirsty was very friendly and very nice, she made sure we were OK."

  I think the Tor Down Quarry sign board must be bigger at the entrance, and access to the lake was too bushy. Otherwise I will recommend the place to friends, we loved it there and will be back

  Kirsty also walked up to greet us to check everything was ok. Everything is clean and as described. The hot tub was hot on arrival and a really nice treat. The deck is secure to let the dogs lay out if the weather is nice.

• "A superb setting in an old quarry."

  So peaceful, just 3 lodges. On arrival soft music welcomed us along with home made scones and cream courtesy of Kirsty the owner ! Molly our Bernese loved it, especially the lake! Off the beaten track but that's what made it so special. Will definitely be returning.

• "Tor Down Quarry is a must visit, the lodge was clean and spacious with all the amenities you need and the quarry was amazing."

  Its location is perfect for Carlyon beach, Adrenalin Quarry, Par Market & Food Hall and Inkies smokehouse and many more. The Old Inn is 1 mile away which serves gorgeous food and cider. Kirsty and John are excellent hosts who will go out of there way to make your stay that little more special. The only sad thing about Tor Down Quarry was going home.

• "We had a fantastic week in Costentyn and would recommend to anyone."

  It was a real home from home with everything we needed and most important to us it was very clean. The classical music playing as we arrived at the property was a lovely touch and set the tone for a very calming holiday. The scones, jam and cream were appreciated and gave us a boost after a day walking the coastal path. The location is idyllic and we loved watching the local wildlife (birds of prey, bats and bunnies to name a few) from the hot tub at the end of the day. Thank you Kirsty for a wonderful holiday.

• "Costentyn Lodge was beautiful, and we really enjoyed our stay."

  The lodge had everything we needed for our time there. Very clean, we enjoyed the special little touches when we arrived, a homemade cornish cream tea. The scones and jam was lovely. Treats for our dog too. Enclosed decking area, so great if you have a dog. The quarry was beautiful to walk around, the top quarry seating area was great, so peaceful, beautiful views all around. Bottom quarry had a great seating area too. Great for swimming if you want too. Kirsty and John are lovely, they made sure we knew they were they if we needed anything, very friendly. I have already recommended Tor down quarry to a number of my friends. Keep doing what your doing Kirsty and John, it great.

• "Had a lovely weeks stay at the quarry."

  Kirsty and her family were very kind and helpful but also respectful of your privacy. The views from the lodge are beautiful and having the bbq and bench to enjoy the outside space was fab. We swam in both the lakes such a great addition to have that we could use. They have done a great job with the place. It was a great base for exploring the north part of Cornwal and we would definitely return.

  We enjoyed the Camel Trail with the start located just 1 mile away down the hill. Lots of lovely areas to explore like Tintagel, Port Isaac and Padstow within reasonable reach by car. We had to cut our break short but will definitely be looking to re-book when we can.

• "Really lovely cabin with amazing views and really well equipped and very clean."

  Beautiful surroundings and wild swimming is a must in the quarry pools! Bit disappointed that the hot tub wasn't hot on the first night, understand cleaning is essential and if we'd have known it wouldn't be available until the following day it would have helped. Would also be good to advise guests that you only get one towel each so that you can bring your own for the hot tub if you want. The signal for the tv is pretty glitchy but it's worth the sacrifice for the stunning location. The cream tea and milk was a lovely touch and overall we were really pleased with the cabin and would love to return in the future.

  Very Welcome and attentive hosts. Homely touches in the property e.g. cream tea with fresh baked scones on arrival, a radio and a bluetooth speaker. Beautiful views and nature walk. Enjoyed the camel trail cycling which is just on the 'door step'. It will feel better for the environment, to having a separate food waste bin or even a composite on site for food waste. Which can later be used to nourish the Beautiful trees and plants around the site.

• "We really enjoyed our stay at Tor Down Quarry; we stayed for 7 Nights and were blessed with some fantastic weather."

  This was a great base for exploring both North and South Cornwall - and the local amenities of St Breward are just a short walk away. The Lodge benefited from a newly installed Private Hot Tub & Decking which was excellent and proved a great addition for early mornings and evenings. The lodge was spacious and well decorated; WiFi was a little slow but can't be helped in the remote location - (The Hot Tub made up for it). Kirsty provided a warm and friendly welcome and was on hand to answer any questions, the Scones, Jam & Cream were a lovely added touch, thankyou for a great week!.

  Kirsty and John are really lovely, and nothing is too much trouble for them. On this visit we didn't need them, but on our previous visit we had car issues and they helped us with that. The cabin is beautiful, the beds are comfy, and there is everything you need. We love wandering the quarry land, though we haven't been brave yet and swam in the quarry. The hot tub is great. Its just a lovely place to holiday. Beautiful scenery, loads of great walks, close to some lovely places, we visited all the favourites Padstow, Rock, Port Isaac, Trebarwith Strand etc. And totally recommend the local pub - always busy with locals, a great atmosphere and great food. We will definitely be back!

• "The cabin was great with a beautiful backdrop and lovey views."

  This location is very remote so be prepared to drive everywhere! The other cabins had more outdoor furniture than ours which was a shame as I would have liked to use the outdoor area. More towels would have been nice as we were using the lake and hottub. Having the home appliances was handy and made being away easier. Communications with the owners was good and we very helpful.

  Views are great and the many local footpaths of St. Breward are a delight to discover. Short drives to some fantastic beaches/locations. Easy to walk down to the start of the Camel Trail at Wenford Bridge and the Snail’s Pace Cafe. Cabin was stocked with t-towels, dishcloth, condiments, dishwasher tabs and such. There was some delicious welcome scones and local jam to partake of. (I think I found the local provider of said jam and bought some more to take home. Plenty of roadside eggs to buy in village with honesty boxes.) Hosts were helpful and friendly. I will happily return to stay at the quarry again.

  The cabin was very clean and decorated to a high standard, we had everything we needed to relax and enjoy ourselves. The views across the local countryside were beautiful and the lakes were a spectacular place to have fun with the family. we stayed for three nights and didn't feel the need to leave the site as it was such an enjoyable place to be. We arrived late on our first night as traffic was bad but Kirsty made sure that once we had got to the site picking up the key and getting into our cabin was super easy. Once in we were greeted by a delicious plate of local scones along with plenty of tasty jam and cream to go with them which we all enjoyed tucking in to! We highly recommend this location to anyone looking for a great place to relax and unwind.

• "We really enjoyed the location and the facilities."

  Lovely friendly welcome from Kirsty and John and felt we could ask if we needed anything. Fantastic touches with dog bowl, poo bags and treats as well as Milk, yummy scones, jam and cream! A unique location which added to our experience. It wouldn’t suit all, but we loved it. It is one of the few places we have been which we would love to go back to. Loved visiting lots of beaches and exploring. We found The cabin very dog friendly and were pleased that the dogs were able to stretch their legs just outside the cabin not always on leads, which always makes life a little easier! Kirsty and John are developing the site which it would have been nice to know before hand, but the quality of the cabins and thicknesss of the windows meant very little noise and also the worker on site we found was very considerate. It’s such a lovely location- we are not surprising they are adding another cabin! We took dressing gowns to walk to and from the hot tub, which I would highly recommend on chilly days/ evenings! Also a torch is required when wandering to the hot tub at night.

• "We had an amazing time."

  The location of the cottage is beautiful, and great for people looking to get away from hustle and bustle.The cottage is quaint but has a modern upkeep within that means you're not missing out on your home comforts. WiFi was reliable and speedy. Location is only a 20/30 minute drive from countless activities and key places of interest in Cornwall. The more local area is very nice and a great change of pace from living in a town, though there's not a great deal to do. Only issue we encountered was arriving at night made it quite hard to find and the roads are quite small and hilly which made driving around to find it that bit more difficult.

  We had these but also a beautiful location with brilliant red sunsets, birdsong instead of traffic noise and a well equipped comfortable place to spend the week. Overcome your doubts and swim in the quarry, a beautiful, tranquil place with water that invigorates your mind and body. Add great hosts, walks across the moors, and good road access to all the major attractions and beaches, and I will happily stay here again and again .
