To offer chocolates if you can find me a self catering trip for Monday?

Last minute due to medical stuff, and like the rest of the country I want to escape. Looking for a self catering, detached place to sleep 2. The usual places I know to look are sold out and our usual budget is around £400 but going to look up to £1200 and I don’t know where to look and most aces are just booked up. Unless I want a 14bed mansion.

I can’t find anywhere, so if you manage to find me somewhere I will send an Amazon gift code to buy chocolates I would be so grateful!

Requirements are self catering, detached (or near enough so no neighbour noise),
Stupidly clean, no high ceilings/spiders
Sea view, or view of water/stream/river or mountains, or not in a middle of a housing estate/feel like you can escape etc.
Any time from today until a week Monday, so a week or M-F from the 5th or F-M from the 9th Oct.
Thinking Devon/Cornwall, Wales (the open bits) Lake District etc

Or I can send flowers!

Stonerush lakes, near Looe in Cornwall.
Lovely 2 bed lodges, lake or stream views, very quiet, parking, lovely lakeside walks, well equipped lodges.

They usually have some vacancies. I think Sykes do there rentals, but site is owned by Charteroak. It’s really lovely and peaceful. Most of the lodges also have a hot tub if that’s your thing. I own one and spend a lot of time there. Love it.

Unbelievable views.

Is DH up for it...you probably don't want to tell us all 'where' exactly...a clue perhaps...area?

Unfortunately we’ve decided not to go.
@DeeDimer and her link to some west woes properties we had actually picked one and very nearly booked, but decided last minute we needed to stay at home.
@Itwasaquarterpast11 suggestion of Toldarne will be stored for visiting when covid is over.
Very disappointed we’re not going anywhere tomorrow, hopefully if go in the next month or so I will send @deedimer chocolate money then if we go!

Sorry you couldn't go but I'm glad you liked West Wales!
