BLACK BUNNY LODGE
Where you can see wild bunnies hopping around outside the lodges!!!
Our lovely holiday lodge is available at the John Fowler Killigarth Manor Holiday Park on the beautiful south coast of Cornwall, only 10 minutes walk from the colourful fishing village and harbour of Polperro.
THE LODGE
Our beautiful cedar lodge is situated along the edge of the holiday park in an area which is very quiet and peaceful. You can sit outside on the decked balcony, which has plenty of room for dining al-fresco and is also ideal for toddlers and small children as we have added a gate to enclose it.
If you watch carefully in the evening, that's when all the bunnies come out to feed!
UNFORTUNATELY THE LODGE IS NOT SUITABLE FOR WHEELCHAIRS due to the steps onto the balcony, which is the o...

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
If you have submitted a review for a holiday rental property, we may also ask that you provide us with proof of your stay to ensure that your review is attached to the correct rental property.
Holiday rental reviews collected via the VRBO website (formerly Homeaway) and syndicated to the Tripadvisor website are not currently subject to Tripadvisor’s standard moderation processes.

Black bunny lodge
Lovely lodge, it was just a shame nothing on site was open. There where lots of things to do off site. We also got stuck on site one of the days as the had a caravan blocking the only exit.

Thank you for your comments. February is a closed season month I'm afraid so facilities are reduced.. Bill.

Ideal get away in serene location
I've been coming to Polperro for 40 years as my grandparents were natives. I've stayed in many locations in that time but have avoided the caravan sites due to personal prejudices. I am glad to say these were swept away the moment we arrived.
The stay was my first solo holiday with my 2 year old daughter and the stay couldn't have been better.
The lodge was perfect with a lockable gate securing the decking area. She loved having being free to run around chasing the bunnies and birds as they appeared throughout our stay.
Decor was dated but extremely comfortable and clean.
Parking space just 10ft out the front and bar the Sunday morning wake up from the football practice on the pitch behind then lodge we hardly noticed any noise at all.
A short walk to the Haven pub, pool and shop made life a bit easier, that side of the site is in dire need of a cash injection but not bad for the remote location.
For the brave Polperro harbour is a 10 min walk downhill from the lodge. Times that by 3 for then return journey as only locals and mountain goats are suited to attempt it without stopping to ease cramps.
Having stayed in cottages in the harbour, B&Bs above Polperros car park and posh hotels a short drive away this is now much preferred lodging.
I am already planning a return trip and hope to stay at Bill's lodge again soon.

Not great for families
Unfortunately the rain was pretty relentless on our week in Cornwall which did effect our holiday vibe but I’ll try to give a fair and accurate review. The lodge is a static caravan on a caravan park with very little activities or entertainment, we went across to the club house and went swimming but it needs an injection of cash from a haven as I don’t think it’s been updated since the early 90s so I believe this is better suited to an older couple who enjoy walking than a family. I would class the lodge as average but the area I would class as poor because there really wasn’t much to do for families with children. Tip - postcode is wrong it should be PL13 2JQ the Tesco delivery got lost and was late but found us in the end
Positive
Good location as long as you drive
Washing machine ( but no tumble dryer)
Tv and DVD player
2 bathrooms - bath and stand shower
Warm (central heating)
Full size fridge
Private parking right outside the lodge
Main space (living room, kitchen) open plan and large
Negatives
Bedrooms / bathrooms small with fixed furniture
old fashioned decor
Lots of spiders and daddy long legs
Club house / swimming pool very retro and unloved
Area
No restaurants and very little cafes open in looe or polperro until 1830 (not practical for families)
Not many paths so walking not possible with a buggy
Lots of shops closed down
Monkey sanctuary not open weekdays
Don’t go in bad weather as there is very little to do at the park and surrounding areas

Thanks for your review.
The property is a prefabricated pine lodge as per the photographs, located on the edge of the site with other lodges, and away from the static vans on the other side of the site.
We endeavour to provide wet weather options by making available various games, dvds, books etc at the lodge. There are numerous "things to do" leaflets at both the lodge and main reception, plus bunny spottig is popular with the children. The Trelawne site, 5 min drive away, also has additional facilities.
Unfortunately, September weather can be unpredictable, and the outside insect life can be busier at this time of year.
Hope the weather didn't spoil your visit too much. Bill.

Lovely stay
We stayed in the lodge for a week. Our party consisted of 2 adults and 2 children (15 and 10). The lodge was lovely and clean on arrival with tea and coffee provided. Beds were comfy and everything in good working order, would definitely stay here again. The holiday park itself is fine, we used the pool, cafe, shop and bar. It could do with updating but was great to use as our base. Loved spotting the bunnies and hedgehogs in the evening.

Lovely Autum Break.
Had a lovely time at Black Bunny Lodge, the chalet was clean and tidy was fully equipt with everything you could wish for. We had three generations in our party of six and the chalet worked very well for us. It was nice to have the indoor pool for our 10 & 14yr old which we used every morning. It's situated just a few miles from Polperro where you have a selection of lovely restaurants. We had a great time and we look forward to booking Black Bunny Lodge again next year.

Excellent accommodation
The Black Bunnies Chalet was very well appointed spotlessly clean and situated ideally for walking the coastal path which is what we required for our break. Would certainly like to revisit.

THE OWNER WAS FANTASTIC & VERY HELPFUL !
We sadly didn't make our stay at Black Bunny Lodge due to our flight from Florida being cancelled & our whole trip to the UK.
William has been very helpful & has offered if we wish to stay in the future he will honour our booking for another time subject to availability.
A big thank you to William's help & understanding.
We look forward to staying the future.
