Clean room a bit smaller than expected but nicely done. Booked a parking place in May, phoned day before arrival to make sure it was available and it was confirmed. Phoned again 12.00 to ask if we could park early, again confirmed. On arrival we were told we didn't have a parking place!!! We were told to park on the next street.

Lovely hotel with lovely staff. The hotel is overlooking the bay. The town is close by and the swimming is safe due to dedicated RNLI on the beach. Thank you for a memorable stay.

Great space that serves as a wonderful retreat from the everyday. Cosy and perfect for two people, it has great access to the south of Cornwall but also serves as a good base to go and explore the rest of Cornwall if you're willing to drive. Space was nice and quiet and you'll be able to properly switch off. Just be aware that the road down to the property is a little narrow so don't be speeding your way through that country lane!
