Pengelly Retreat in West Cornwall, is delighted to announce that it has won the Bronze Award in the Glamping Business of the Year category at the South West Tourism Awards 2023, held at the Eden Project in front of an audience made up of a wealth of figures from all areas of tourism.
The South West Tourism Awards celebrate the best tourism businesses in the South West region of the UK, and the Glamping Business of the Year category recognizes excellence in the glamping sector. Pengelly Retreat was recognized for its outstanding accommodation, exceptional customer service, and commitment to sustainability.
"We're delighted to be chosen for a Glamping Business of Year award for the second year running by the South West Tourism judges, “said Ruth Milligan, who along with partner Jim Watkins created and runs Pengelly. “It’s amazing to get this recognition for Pengelly Retreat as there is such a lot of competition in the South West region and lots of incredible tourism businesses out there. We're lucky to have such a beautiful and unique piece of land and lakes for our glamping business and annual awards like this really help to inspire us to keep exceeding our lovely guests' expectations."
Pengelly Retreat is set in a stunning location in the heart of Cornwall, surrounded by beautiful countryside and close to some of the UK's best beaches. The site offers guests a choice of two award winning homes, The Boat House and The Sail House. The Boat House is an architect-designed, self-catering log cabin in Cornwall, enjoying pride of place looking straight down the lake with gorgeous sunrise and sunset views, surrounded by woodlands full of nature.
At the eastern end of the lake guests will find The Sail House, a luxurious double-yurt for two nestled in the trees, surrounded by water and the peaceful sound of birdsong. A private boardwalk leads across the lake to a private pontoon and sun deck which is the most incredible spot for watching the sunrises and sunsets over the water. Here guests can also take a wild swim and then jump into the outdoor heated shower to warm up!
Guests are ensured a truly special stay at Pengelly Retreat, where Ruth and Jim have filled the homes with special touches, and it is little wonder so many guests return again and again to this very special place.
"We are proud to offer our guests a truly unforgettable glamping experience, and this award is a wonderful recognition of our commitment to providing exceptional customer service and sustainable tourism," said Ruth.
