Overview
Description
If you're looking for a peaceful place to unwind and reset in Cornwall, Otter Lodge is the place for you.Whether it be fishing our stretch of the River Fowey for trout or salmon, sipping your morning coffee on the private, south facing patio watching the river gently flow by only a few feet away from your garden, or simply opening the curtains after a good night's sleep and watching the birds, Otter Lodge is a lovely place to be.
COOKING & DINING
You'll find that the lodge is equipped with all the features you’d expect from luxury accommodation: comfortable beds and linens, a well-equipped kitchen with Bosch appliances including a dishwasher, lovely Port Meirion Botanic Blue crockery, gas central heating, two comfy leather settees and an easy chair, a solid oak dining table which seats up to six and a bright and airy open plan kitchen/dining/living area which looks on to the garden. There's also a washing machine in the utility room and a rotary clothes line outside. We also have a shared tumble dryer in the nearby Information Room.
RESTING & SLEEPING
From the main bedroom, you can look out over your private garden area towards the river and listen to the tranquil sound of the water through your window. Relax in the comfort of a king size bed and have a delightful night's sleep in fragrant, freshly laundered, crisp linen with no street lights to disturb you. There's a spacious dressing table, drawers and a built in wardrobe as well as an en suite shower room featuring a large, luxurious shower, WC, wash basin and heated towel rail with towels provided for you.
You might prefer to sleep in the second large bedroom which is at the opposite end of the lodge. This also overlooks the garden and the river and has a comfortable king size bed, dressing table and drawers, and an even larger walk in wardrobe. This bedroom shares a family shower room with the third bedroom, which is a bright, welcoming twin room with windows looking to the river and a Velux skylight, as well as a wardrobe and drawers. The family shower room has a large shower, WC, wash basin and heated towel rail.
ENJOYING THE OUTDOOR SPACE
Your private patio has seating and a parasol and charcoal BBQ for your exclusive use during your stay. It's the perfect spot to enjoy your morning coffee watching the birds, or a sun downer with friends at the end of the day.
Some guests find that they don't leave the site as they come for a complete chill-out break and there's plenty to do with walks around the lake, bird spotting in the hide, choosing your favourite picnic spot or escaping with a book and a bottle of wine. Perhaps you'll recapture your inner child on the rope swings, have a game of boules on the court or even fish for salmon or trout in the river? There's a fire pit in the grounds, which guests are welcome to use, which is another perfect spot for meeting up with friends or family and sharing special times together.

A 5* country retreat
By Minister on 18-Sep-2026The most important thing we wanted was to find a quiet country retreat in Cornwall. 5 stars for the information provided both before and during our stay, the cleanliness of the accommodation, the welcome bag and its contents, and the site amenities.
Lovely riverside walks and meadows
By Harris on 31-Aug-2026We chose Rivermead Cottages as we wanted to be in Cornwall and have a beautiful area to stay in. 5* for the cleanliness of the accommodation, thank you and the site amenities were amazing! What we liked most about our stay was the welcoming owner, the information folder of a high standard, the peaceful grounds to explore, the lovely lodge - thank you. Your property is really nice. Lovely riverside walk and meadows, peaceful garden area; nice having the bird feeder stocked also. I liked the swings under the trees and the other rope swing next to it, thank you!! :)
Excellent location, lovely grounds
By Pready on 22-Aug-2026We were looking for good quality, spacious accommodation and for somewhere with lots to do in the area when we booked at Rivermead Cottages. We really enjoyed our stay at Rivermead and liked the excellent location, lovely grounds and wildlife. We especially liked being right by the river. The scones in the welcome bag were excellent, thank you.
The lodge was the nicest holiday home we've ever stayed in
By McCosh on 06-Aug-2026When we booked Otter Lodge we were looking for a good location, 3 bedrooms, somewhere quiet with good facilities and surrounded by nature. What did we like most about our stay at Rivermead? All of it! The lodge was the nicest holiday home we've ever stayed in, clean, comfortable with high quality furnishings throughout. Beautiful location with lots of wonderful wildlife and lovely walks. Thank you for the gift bag and cream tea, that was much appreciated.
Good beds
By Snoeijer on 29-Jul-2026When we were planning this holiday, finding somewhere that was centrally located was important and the accessibility of locations in the area. We loved the clean house, good beds and great nature!
Good location and lovely setting
By Fisher on 17-Jul-2026The most important thing to us when booking this holiday was that the place didn't allow dogs. We really liked the peace and quiet, the lovely setting and the lovely accommodation (no barking dogs - bliss). Good location too. Thank you for a lovely stay. Your place is beautiful.
