Was only there for one night/day on a quick unexpected trip to the area and the property was just what I needed. Wish I had more time to explore it and have a meal on site, everyone there was helpful and friendly and the place was super cute and peaceful. Great location. Good vibe.

We had an amazing stay in the 3 bedroom cottage in Penzance. Jonathan was amazing to deal with and the room was beyond spectacular! Worth every penny. We only stayed the one night for my friends 60th Birthday. We wanted to go to see the St Michaels Mount, which we did walk to but it was closed on Saturday’s! Jonathan offered other options and was helpful. We dined there as well and the food was delicious and service was first class. I cannot say enough about how much we loved our stay. Next time I will book for a longer stay!
