Churchwood Valley is a beautiful, natural wooded valley running down to the sea at Wembury Bay in South Devon, near Plymouth. Look closely and, hidden among the lush green foliage, you’ll see wooden cabins nestling on the hillside.
Each holiday cabin has its own plot on the hillside, surrounded by trees, flowering shrubs, hedges and rustic fences. All our cabins have views across the valley, with some looking out over the water meadow or towards the sea.
There’s a car parking space near each cabin and private roads and paths give access to the beach, an unspoiled stretch of rock pools and shingle with sand at low tide. Adjoining National Trust land, the beach is no more than a 10-minute stroll away from any of the cabins.
Up to two well-behaved dogs are welcome in each cabin for a small charge, there are dog exercise areas on site and plenty of space for canine roaming locally.
This modern style of lodge has light and spacious interiors and provides a high level of creature comforts, such as dishwashers, washing machines and a TV with DVD player. The Churchwood Lodge can sleep up to six and has one double room, one twin room and a double bed settee in the lounge. Bath or shower. Sliding patio doors enhance the views of the valley over the decking patio.
A haven of peace within an environmental paradise, Churchwood Valley is a few minutes’ walk from a safe family beach and the South West Coast Path.
If ‘getting away from it all’ is the most important part of your holiday – Churchwood Valley is for you. Each holiday cabin is nestled within the woodland. By moving no further than your armchair, you’ll see delightful displays of birdlife, and a trip to your private patio may well afford a glimpse of badgers, foxes, squirrels, and other wildlife.
There are no discos, bars, or cafes – just rock pools, wildlife, and breathtaking scenery. Secluded it may be, isolated it is not. Churchwood’s licensed shop sells a wide range of food and drink, beach toys, gifts, and many other products, so you don’t even need to leave the site for those ‘essential’ items. We also have a fully equipped launderette. If you feel the need for a more extensive shop, or have a taste for the bright lights, the city of Plymouth is just a 20 minute drive away.

Lovely cabin in a peaceful location it really is like living in the woods. We enjoyed many walks in the local area with the dog's taking in the local sights. Jennycliff cafe is a must for a hot drink and cake overlooking Plymouth sound. Dartmoor for lovely walks or catching the ferry over to Cornwall. We will definitely be back

We visited churchwood thirteen years ago with our small grandchildren and it was a lovely place to be this time we returned as four adults and it was the most relaxing holiday we’ve had the lodge was clean and supplied with everything we needed the site is clean and tidy the shop is supplied with all essentials the owners are friendly and welcoming. The walk to the local pub the odd wheel is an up hill trek but the meals are well worth it ,the cafe on the beach is a clean friendly place for light lunches or cream teas.Dartmoor prison museum is worth a visit and the clapper bridge.St William yard in Plymouth is a lovely place to eat .its a lovely place just to chill out and relax and at a reasonable price

Decent, affordable accommodation in a quiet, yet family orientated area. Walkable to beach and riding school. Close enough to travel by car into local attractions.

The cabin we had was excellent, the shop had a good selection of essentials and was reasonably priced. Location was excellent for us as we had friends in Wembury. Only thing that would improve the site would be some ev charging.

For a getaway from it all holiday you can't beat Churchwood Valley. The setting is lovely and there is peace and quiet yet it is only a leisurely stroll away from the sea, where the National Trust owned piece of coast includes a marine visitor centre offering guided rockpool rambles, the charming Old Mill cafe and a choice of moderate walks along the coastal path if you want to be more energetic. Not to mention the surfing and bodyboarding when the conditions are right.All this and only 30 mins from Plymouth with all it has to offer and an hour from Dartmoor.

A lot of privacy, nice house and near to the beach. We had a wonderful time.

Had a lovely stay at Churchwood Valley. It wouldn't be for everyone with lots of stairs and steep hills. Our 5 year old twins loved the horse riding and the beach. We were close to 2 Zoos and Plymouth with the aquamarine so we had places to go with the children. The cabin had all we needed but could do with updated furniture.

The chalet was very comfortable , warm and clean and had every facility needed. The only downside was the strong smell of cooking when I arrived that had somehow settled in the bed linen. However, this had gone after the first night. Sadly I couldn’t stay for the whole week. The shower was great! The food at the local pub, The Odd Wheel, was very good even though I couldn’t book in for Sunday lunch as I was a single person and, unfortunately, they couldn’t accommodate me.

Lodge in beautiful natural, peaceful environment, although other lodges there, quite a lot if privacy between. So close to other environments like the meadow with stream and beach with rock pools and woody walks. Cafe and toilets on beach.
