Exceptional stay – last-minute lifesavers!
Liked: We were so lucky to find this BnB last minute, and from the moment we arrived, Lorna and Andre made us feel completely at home. They were incredibly welcoming and went above and beyond to accommodate us – nothing was too much trouble. The house has such a warm, homely feel, with beautifully spacious rooms and idyllic views that made it hard to leave. A truly lovely stay - could not recommend enough!
Disliked: Nothing

Outstanding dog friendly accommodation and...
Liked: We cannot rate our stay highly enough. Lorna and Andre are exceptional hosts - nothing too much trouble and very welcoming into their home. Technically this is a B and B but it is way more than that. A beautiful country house with extensive grounds and huge welcoming comfy sitting and dining areas. It really felt as if we were staying in a top end boutique hotel in terms of our surroundings. Our rooms were huge, exceptionally comfy and with a small number of rooms only you are very much house guests rather than hotel clients. There are also so many touches that Lorna and Andrew have thought about to make this a 5 star location - for example provision of fridges and fresh milk and not a UHT carton in sight. While there are good local pubs for dinner (we did not need lunch as the breakfast was excellent and never-ending...) - eg the St Kew Inn, St Mabyn Inn or slightly further the RingoBells at St Issey (all dog friendly) Lorna and Andre have provided microwave and crockery etc. and encourage you if you wish to cook microwave meals - a real plus that we did not have to go out every night. And to top it all this must be the most dog friendly establishment we have visited with our dog - Lorna and Andre are dog lovers and have really thought about making dogs welcome - excellent welcome packs but also an understanding that dogs are part of the furniture. We booked our 6 night stay last minute and although a car is really needed Wadebridge/Padstow and excellent bus service was only a short drive away - perfect for our walking the next sections of the SW Coast Path. We will certainly be staying again. This was hospitality to a level that is rare to find these days - for those of old enough to remember a time before booking.com it was reminder of when establishments built reputations by their hospitality not ratings - but given everything is now rated, the scores given here are no exaggeration.
Disliked: Nothing.

Great stay
Liked: Beautiful house and location. Lovely hosts.
Disliked: There wasn’t a lot of sound insulation between rooms and corridor. But it wasn’t a problem for us as the other guests weren’t noisy.

Excellent stay in beautiful hotel...
Liked: Beautiful hotel and gardens with friendly helpful hosts. A real hidden gem. Excellent breakfast buffet with cooked options too. Definitely recommend and wished we could have stayed longer !
Disliked: Mostly all amazing!Council should allow a sign on the road to help folk find the hotel especially at night. Owners came to find us and were so helpful throughout our stay. Maybe add what3words to directions or perhaps you did and we missed that too!
