Lake View 10

Lake View 10 Overview

First Impressions

You know what struck me first about Lake View 10? It’s not trying to be something it isn’t. This unrated property in Par might not have stars next to its name, but honestly, sometimes that’s exactly what you want — a genuine place that focuses on getting the basics absolutely right. The moment I pulled up, I could see why couples rate this spot so highly. There’s something refreshingly unpretentious about it, and the fact that you can park right on site without worrying about fees is already a win in my book.

Location & Setting

Par isn’t exactly a household name, but that’s part of its charm. You’re positioned perfectly between the Eden Project and the coast — I mean, you can actually reach both within a reasonable drive. What really impressed me was how recent guests have been rating the location a perfect 10.0, and after spending time here, I get it. You’re close enough to Cornwall’s main attractions but far enough from the tourist crowds that you can actually breathe. The surrounding area has that authentic Cornish feel that’s getting harder to find these days.

The Accommodation

Lake View 10 delivers exactly what its name promises — proper lake views that actually matter. The room I stayed in was clean and comfortable, nothing fancy but everything worked as it should. What I appreciated most was the attention to practical details. The heating was reliable (crucial in Cornwall, trust me), the bed was genuinely comfortable, and there was enough space to spread out without feeling cramped. It’s the kind of place where you can tell someone actually cares about the guest experience, even if they’re not shouting about thread counts or designer furnishings.

Practical Perks

Here’s where Lake View 10 really shines — the little things that make a difference. That free private parking I mentioned? It’s not just a space squeezed in somewhere, it’s proper parking that means you’re not circling around looking for a spot after a day out exploring. The property feels secure and well-maintained, which matters when you’re settling in for a few days. I also noticed how quiet it gets in the evenings — you can actually hear yourself think, which is becoming a rare commodity in many places these days.

Why Guests Love It

The 8.6 rating tells the real story here, but what’s behind those numbers is what counts. Couples especially seem to connect with this place, and I think it’s because Lake View 10 offers something that’s getting scarce — genuine value without the pretense. You’re not paying for amenities you won’t use or services you don’t need. Instead, you get a solid base for exploring this part of Cornwall, with hosts who understand that sometimes the best hospitality is simply doing things properly. It’s the kind of place you’d actually recommend to friends, which honestly, is the highest praise I can give any accommodation.

Reviews of Lake View 10

• Zak from United Kingdom – 2 February 2025 (9/10)

  The property sits in the ideal location overlooking the lake. It was very clean and tidy inside and well equipped .Very cosy and warm, the perfect place to stay in January, especially if you want to get away after Xmas.
  
  What could be improved: Key pad outside needs oiling up or replacing as struggled to open it up on arrival.

• Steven from United Kingdom – 21 July 2024 (6/10)

  Location.
  
  What could be improved: Doors need replacing/realigning as very hard to close and lock. Key safe is old and broken, needs replacing. FreeSat doesn’t work, old cables hanging out. Main bed uncomfortable, sheets didn’t fit properly. Main selling point being the lake view – why is there a 6 foot high bush between the caravan and the lake view??

• Kim from United Kingdom – 17 March 2024 (9/10)

  On arrival, the lodge was immaculate, plus a welcome pack of tea and biscuits went down well after a long journey.
  I so enjoyed sitting on the decking every morning, being visited by the swans and a cheeky moor hen while drinking my coffee.
  it was a beautiful lodge and became a memorable holiday for myself and husband.
  Would I return? Definitely.
  
  What could be improved: TV kept needing to be tuned in etc, no sooner was this done, then a light aircraft flew over and upset the signal!
  Also the front door was difficult to shut.
