Retreat Hire

Our wild venue is a great spot to host your own adventure - group get-togethers, family holidays, special occasions, retreats, business getaways, school trips, charity events, photoshoots, press trips and workshops.

Tucked away on the banks of the River Fal, our secluded, wild location is one of the most unique settings in Cornwall.

At the heart of the venue is the Lost Cottage of Penperth. In addition there are 3 individual accommodation pods; the Potting Shed, Hunting Lodge and Shepherd's Hut. Set within an ancient oak woodland in a private creek, the scene is wild, creative and peaceful. It is the perfect getaway for groups.
