Had a lovely stay in the loft! The views were fantastic, and the location was amazing—perfectly situated with easy access to other areas. The hosts were incredibly friendly and welcoming, which made the stay even more enjoyable. Would definitely recommend staying here!

Wow, where do I begin? Sancreed house is truly beautiful. Grove & Pablo have put so much in to making the space wonderful - even down to the scent! Everything has been so well thought through. The room itself was stunning. Somewhere you could completely unwind. Everything you could need was provided - plenty of space for belongings, a small fridge, tea and coffee, a hairdryer and even some slippers which were a lovely touch.

The Annex was a peaceful location with views across the hills. It’s a convenient location for the Eden Project and the beaches around St Austell. The annex is a good base and has a home from home feel. John the host is very friendly and welcoming.

First class furnishings, including very wide and comfortable bed, and good ensuite. The breakfast room was closed because of Covid 19, but the room service breakfast was very comprehensive and very generous, and delicious!

We have visited Penzance on many day trips during summer months and often thought it may be nice to visit 'out of season'. Additionally we have always felt that The Dolphin looks a nice place to stay, with an excellent location by the harbour. We travelled down on the overnight train from Paddington (an experience in itself), and was not disappointed with our choice of The Dolphin to stay. The weather was kind to us, and we had three lovely days in and around Penzance.

Helen and Paul must be two of the nicest and kindest hosts we've met.
After a 6 hour drive, to arrive to a cream tea laid out in the apartment was truly a lovely touch.
One of the cleanest places we've ever stayed, they'd literally thought of everything you could need. You name it, it was there, potato peeler, sieve, cling film, foil the works.
Helen even asked me what milk we drink and made sure there was a pint of semi skimmed in the fridge on arrival.. Thanks Helen.

I would really recommend this hotel if you are a dog owner wanting to bring them with you, or if you are looking for a hotel in a lovely location just away from the main bustle of Falmouth. Our room was lovely and spacious, there is an enclosed garden for dogs to run around with, dogs are welcome at mealtimes - perfect. There is also an access point to the SW coastal path about a 10 minute walk away, and two dog friendly beaches (no restrictions) within either 10-15 minute walk / 5 minute drive...

What brings the majority of holidaymakers to the south-western county of Cornwall is a desire for peace and quiet. The heady mix of sleepy fishing villages and unspoiled coves is ideal for those in search of some rest and relaxation. The south Cornish coast boasts a chilled out atmosphere among locals, as well as being home to some of the most beautiful spots in the country. Fortunately for travellers, there's also plenty of excellent hotels in this part of Cornwall.
The Lizard
Cornwall is special in that it's home to both the most western and the most southern points in mainland Britain, in Land's End and the Lizard. No trip to southern Cornwall would be complete without going as far south as south goes by heading out to Lizard Point. This quiet peninsula isn't home to much but small villages and the occasional post office, but that's all part of its charm. There's a small shop offering fresh pasties beside the car park at the Lizard, which is the only facility visitors really need!
Walking the Coastline
The south Cornish coast boasts some of the most spectacular cliffs and beaches in all of the country, and it's best seen on-foot or by boat. Highlights of the south coast include the Minack Theatre, built into the cliff edge in the far West, and the stunning Roseland Heritage Coast, just East of Falmouth.
Be sure to speak with the staff at your accommodation to find out about the best walks in the area. The long coastline offers something for all abilities, with a consistently high level of beauty all the way along.
Hotels in Southern Cornwall
The south is home to some of the finest luxury hotels in Cornwall. The Carlyon Bay Hotel, just outside St. Austell, offers a breadth of relaxing facilities, as well as the opportunity to stay fit.
The Cornwall Hotel Spa and Estate provides a range of spa treatments, designed to lull guests into a state of complete relaxation. If you need a pick-me-up after this total calm, the nearby town of St. Austell is very well-served for places to eat and drink.
