Within minutes Debbie had us in our room and settled. It is a 3 room boutique style B&B in a lovely house right in the midst of St. Ives down on the harbour. It is a short 5 minute walk from the train station. Our room had a spectacular view of the harbour, and the sunrise the following morning. It was truly a million dollar view. The bed was beyond comfortable with fantastic pillows and bedding. The room was well equipped with a mini fridge, tea and coffee, and a modern en-suite bathroom. The breakfast room was bright and spacious, with a fantastic view of St. Ives harbour to inspire you to get out and enjoy the fresh sea air. Breakfast had a good variety of choice with fresh fruit, cereal, yoghurt and a choice of fry up. The bread used for the toast has to be mentioned so yummy and such nice thick slices. Debbie and Carl our hosts were lovely, very welcoming and professional.

The site is beautifully kept, and COVID protocols are adhered to so we always felt safe. Ray, the owner, was on hand for anything we needed and always had a ready smile. Location is amazing, with a beautiful sea view and easy walking distance to the harbor where you can take the ferry to Fowey. Highly recommended.

Upon arrival my partner and I were greeted by the staff while we were still unpacking the car…read more Needless to say that we were taken care of before we had even stepped through the door. From the outset it was obvious that that the owners were highly passionate about providing an unsurpassable level of service. It was obvious that such passion in the care and attention paid to guests was honest. This is not to say that the level of attention paid to was overbearing. Indeed, our hosts appeared to appreciate that travellers and tourists often want their holiday to begin as soon as possible and not spend a great deal of time having the rules of a guest house laid out. Therefore, we were given a warm introduction, had our luggage taken to our room, and had only the most fundamental of information explained to us. Overall, service was 10/10 We stayed in the penthouse suite. My partner did not hesitate to mention that the bed was the most comfortable she had ever been lucky enough to witness. The room and all of its furniture and utilities were spotless. There was not one thing we would have chosen to change regarding the room. It really is worth staying in the penthouse, if only to appreciate the unhindered view across the harbour. There was more than enough storage space for all of our belongings. The interior decoration of the suite was ideal in its white tones. A wide range of breakfast options were available, limited only by one's own appetite. The breakfast specials were particularly delightful. I for one enjoyed the smoked salmon with scrambled eggs on an english muffin, while my partner enjoyed mushrooms on toast. Overall, what we enjoyed best was how approachable the staff seemed and how friendly and warm they were towards guests. Also, the room was without fault whatsoever. If you can, the penthouse is quite simply the best option.

This place is absolutely stunning.

The farm consists of four converted barn cottages decorated and furnished to feel like a home away from home. All cottages have wooden beams and open stonework, with three of the cottages including a log burner making it very cosy and comfortable. Everything you need is catered for, including dishwasher, washing machine, dryer, oven, hob and microwave, as well as freeview/dvd/video and radio/cd. When you first arrive, homemade scones, jam, cream and tea are sitting on the table waiting for you. The owners are very friendly and welcoming and are ready to offer advice and recommendations for places to visit. Each cottage has beautiful views of fields and surrounding countryside. The cottages are perfect for every type of holiday maker - central to other tourist attractions in Cornwall (only 20 min to the Eden Project and St Austell) and set in the heart of the country side, it is perfect for walkers (boot scrubbing and drying facilities are included). The cottages are also child friendly providing cots, high chair and stairgate, along with board games and dvds for nights in. There is a farm trail and paddock close-by for ball games, with a pets corner where you can bottle feed lambs or collect farm fresh eggs. Highly recommended.

All in all I really felt like a welcome and appreciated guest and I got the sense that the hosts took pride in their local area and in inviting you to their home, which makes such a huge difference. They even had maps and transport timetables available and helped to make a dinner reservation. The place is also conveniently located within 15-min walking distance of St. Austell rail and bus station.

I promptly went afoot and unexpectedly found this B&B facing the sea, what a most welcome oasis for weary travelers! Liz, the land lady was most accommodating and helpful. The 2 single en suite rooms were charming in country decor, immaculately clean, cheery and bright, coffee and tea were stashed along with soft bath towels to boot! Breakfast was not only a standard English Breakfast, my friend was able to order a vegetarian version, and a generous cereal bar accompanied. Free wifi and complete silence rounded out the entire experience along with the surprisingly inexpensive room rate. Cheers to Liz!
