About Bar Lodge

A stay with a view, this remote hideaway perches just above Loe Bar Beach.

Bar Lodge is a dreamy place to spend a holiday. Perching just above Loe Bar Beach, you’ll be watching sunsets over the ocean from its roof terrace. And when skies turn grey, its contemporary multi-fuel stove in the living room will keep you snug. The lodge was built over a century ago by Captain John Peverell Rogers of Penrose and now hosts a spacious three-bedroom holiday home where sea views stretch from the high cliffs of the Lizard, to the Land's End peninsula in the distant west.

Approached on a winding track through the woods, far from any other dwelling, you’ll have this secluded stretch of beauty practically to yourself. Head down to the beach for a lazy day on the sands or go for a stroll along Loe Pool and its woodlands just behind the lodge.

You’ll be in a prime location for exploring some of Cornwall’s most stunning scenery. The Lizard and Kynance Cove are less than a 40 minutes’ drive form here. The Helford River, famous for its links with Daphne du Maurier, is a 40 minutes’ drive to the east. Or for some local history, drive into nearby Helston for its folk heritage and beautiful Georgian and Victorian architecture.

Please note: The beach below house is shingle and slopes steeply, it is dangerous so swimming and paddling are not permitted. Gunwalloe Church Cove, south-east is a popular family beach patrolled by lifeguards in summer months.
