Few days away

Amazing hotel clean, fresh, rooms are lovely, nice size and complementary tea and coffee and mini fridge stocked, Jan the owner was lovely very welcoming, car parking is limited on site but that didn’t bother us we parked in a side street near the hotel, lovely location, shop few steps away, Carbis bay hotel and beach literally 5/10 minutes walk but mind the hill on the way back up, you can drive down but parking can be expensive for the day and limited spaces. Definitely return.

We had 6 days at Beechwood House. The hosts were friendly and knowledgeable of the areas, suggesting places to visit that we didn't know about. Our first impressions when we entered the room was how clean it was. The countertop fridge was well stocked and topped up every day. We'd definitely recommend Beechwood House.

A must stay, fantastic

Me and my partner stayed here 2 nights for her surprise birthday trip to St Ives and we loved it, finding the place was easy, as was parking. We checked in with a gentlemen whose name I unfortunately cannot recall but he was so friendly and welcoming, giving us plenty of advice for our stay which we appreciated. Our room was lovey and stocked with plenty of bits for breakfast including cereals, milk, Greek style yoghurts, fruit pots, and croissants as well as bottled water, tea, and coffee, all of which would be restocked and cost us no extra. Our room was cleaned and restocked while we were out. Now the highlight of our stay, I had booed a trip for my partners birthday but had not bought a cake, fortunately she didn’t have a problem with this but I wanted to get a hold of one, I asked the lovely lady running this B&B and she gave me plenty of ideas where to get a hold of one as well as allowing us to check out later which was also very kind. Once I had got my hands on a birthday cake the lovely lady had popped to the shops herself to get a card and gift bag full of sweet treats to say happy birthday which was so heartwarming and my partner was chuffed to bits. A very nice touch, thank you so much!

Hosts Jan and Peter were fab and made you feel at home straight away. The bedroom and bathroom were spotlessly clean with kettle, tea and coffee. The fridge was replenished every day with water, milk fruit juice and other breakfast items. Beechwood house is ideally positioned for bus and train into St Ives with some local restaurants locally. We will be definitely returning in the future.

I was planning to stay for 3 nights but left after one. To be honest, this B&B is alright but not for me. The room was small, a bit cramped, overlooking a roof. Otherwise, well thought out, with a fridge stocked with complementary water, milk, biscuits, cereals and yogurt. There is very good transportation to St. Ives and a few restaurants close by. The lady at the reception was helpful and friendly.

Quiet and spacious room which was well stocked with shower gel, shampoo, hairdryer, breakfast cereals and a fridge which had a wide range of items…milk, eggs, water, yogurt, fruit, orange juice, chocolate bars all replaced for free every day. I had the best nights sleep and an amazing stay. Highly recommended

This is a lovely hotel in a very good location. The nearby train and bus make it very easy to get around (into St Ives was very simple) and the beach in Carbis Bay is walking distance. The room suited our needs perfectly and the breakfast supplies (that were replenished each day) were a lovely touch. Would recommend to anyone!

Cosy room in a good area

Room was a little small but only really slept and showered there. Walkable to St Ives, but a few eateries around the immediate vicinity too. In room breakfast of instant porridge, pain au chocolate, fruit, water and juice provided, plus there was a kettle with tea coffee and biscuits. (Kitchen was closed during Covid) Chose last minute as a booking elsewhere was cancelled due to double booking, so was pleased to find somewhere in a good area
