About this property

2 Bed Heritage Apartment Within Grade 2 Listed Country House, 200m to beach

Bovisand Lodge is an historical Grade 2 listed Country House set in the Devon countryside yet enjoying a beach side location. The Lodge provides luxury holiday accommodation with 3 Heritage Apartments in the East wing of the house. Each apartment has its own separate entrance and terrace or patio area with BBQ and access to the Indoor heated pool and Sauna.

Bovisand Lodge is set in an unspoilt wooded valley that runs down from the hills of Staddon Heights, the grounds open onto a safe sandy beach with breathtaking views of the Cornish coast. The South West Coast Path runs along the bottom of the grounds allowing you to explore the stunning scenery. The charming country house/lodge was for many years the home to Joseph Whidbey, the Superintendent Engineer of the great Plymouth Breakwater, which can be seen from the Lodge. Despite it's peace and tranquillity the Lodge is only seven miles from Plymouth City Centre.

Bovisand Lodge is set within a small award winning family run holiday park. It's a peaceful Park with an emphasis on nature and tranquillity - we hold the David Bellamy Gold award for conversation. By popular demand there are no club house or restaurants/shops on-site. These are all a short drive or longer walk away! Generations of guests have enjoyed and appreciate the quality surroundings which has made their stay memorable and special.

Explore the Area, our tips on what to see & do;
Take the water taxi to Plymouth’s historic Barbican, where the Pilgrim Fathers set sail for America. We love wandering along the cobbles, browsing in the antiques shops and independent restaurants and obligatory fish and chip shops.
Continue on to the Hoe, if you are feeling energetic climb to the top of the iconic lighthouse – Smeatons Tower and be rewarded with 360 views, or take a dip on the 1930’s sea water lido. Beatles fans can sit where John and all sat to have their picture taken whilst making their Magical Mystery Tour film.
Play Golf at Staddon Heights – a stunning cliff top course with views over Cornwall to Dartmoor
The South West coast path runs along the bottom of our holiday Park – explore Devon’s dramatic coast line in both directions – you can even stop for a pub lunch along the way!
Explore Royal William Yard and take the Cremyll ferry (foot passenger) to Mount Edgcombe, explore the grounds and walk to the fishing villages of Kingsand and Cawsand
There are many National Trust properties are nearby – Saltram, Antony, Cotehele
Go on a snorkel safari or rock pool ramble at Wembury Beach – a national marine conservation area

Looking for beauty and serenity on the seaside?

This location offered everything that we were looking for. The accommodation’s were warm and inviting as were all the team that we encountered. The view of the sea from our apartment was breathtaking throughout the day and we enjoyed the walk to the sea on fairly flat ground!! Thankfully no cliff climbs! We look forward to our next stay with them.

About the host

Hosted by Candice Hart

Host profile image
Our small holiday park has been in the family for over 60 years and is currently managed by third generation brother and sister team James and Candice (me!) - who you will see out and about on the Park. Our parents Rita and John are also still very much involved.

Having grown up here the family is hugely proud of the Park, and work hard to create a peaceful and idyllic environment for guests and caravan owners to enjoy.

We have 3 types of accommodations: Lodges, Apartments and Caravans.

Why they chose this property

The Park has been in the family for over 60 years and we enjoy the peaceful natural setting - we have the best of both worlds with the beauty of the surrounding fields and woodlands along with direct beach access and stunning coastal views/walks. We're a stones throw from the historic Barbican with it's climbable lighthouse, the hustle and bustle of Royal William Yard not forgetting the far reaching views from Dartmoor and it's famous Tors.

What makes this property unique

Nestled in a wooded valley yet beside the beach and SW coastal path, you can't beat the location! You can enjoy the sunsets over the Cornish coast and make use of our heated pool and sauna.
Light and airy our spacious accommodation is fully equipped to give you that home from home feeling. We pride ourselves on our attention to detail and go to great lengths to ensure that our accommodations are to the highest standard. You will see new additions each time you stay, whether that's a fresh lick of paint, new sofa's, crockery, coffee machines or the hanging of pictures from local artists, we consider it all.
