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!

We had a lovely weekend stay. Staff very friendly and accommodating. Room was quirky and just perfect, warm, cosy with bundles of character. Room was very well kitted out from chargers, slippers, robes and the complimentary toiletries and tea making facilities of excellent quality. No noise at night, bed was really comfortable and the lavender pillow spray was much appreciated. We both slept like babies. Breakfast was hot and the full English wasn't swimming in greese and eggs perfect. Our only negative was that the evening menu was limited and not to everyones taste, so the second evening we opted to eat out. They would benefit from a weekly rotating menu for variety. Otherwise excellent and we would stay again in the future and recomend to our family and friends.
