We have thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Jupiter Lodge. The single track roads around the area could sometimes, be quite challenging but well worth it. Plenty of places to see without travelling too far. Accommodation very spacious just slightly dated for some tastes but has everything you need to enable you to enjoy your stay,
We had a really great week. The house was very clean and well stocked and the layout worked well for two families.
The neighbours kindly got their telescopes out and the children had a fantastic evening looking at the stars!
Jupiter lodge is the perfect place to spend a holiday in Cornwall. A great location off the beaten track but with easy access to all parts of Cornwall.
The lodge is clean and tidy with plenty of room and everything you would need for a happy visit. The information from the owner prior to the visit was spot on. Accurate directions and plenty of info about the lodge and the surrounding area.
I would highly recommend Jupiter lodge.
We had such a fabulous time during our stay. It was lovely. A wonderful surprise welcome of fresh scones with cream and jam in the fridge. We took my elderly Mom and the ground floor bedroom with en-suite suited perfectly. Amazing views. Thank you. We’d go again for sure.

About the host
Hosted by Trevor Plumbley
Trevor & Gill Plumbley. Married with 3 children, one grandson and several horses ! In a previous life we were a mechanical engineer and a teacher respectively but we are now retired! Having lived and worked overseas for many years we are now happy to be back home with the family and thoroughly enjoying the British countryside.
Why they chose this property
We purchased Jupiter Lodge on the fringes of Bodmin Moor to have riding holidays there with our horses. It has a paddock and stabling which is ideal for us. Jupiter Lodge not only has good accommodation, which instantly appealed to us when we first saw it, but is also a great place from which to explore Cornwall on or off horseback ! It is enjoyed by all of our three daughters !
What makes this property unique
We enjoy the stunning views from the Lodge and walking and riding in the surrounding countryside and on the moor. We also enjoy walking to the local pub, The Manor Inn at Rilla Mill, and going to Stert's open air theatre in Upton Cross, just up the road !
