Overlooking the garden, units in this guest house are accessible via private entrance and comprised of a flat-screen TV and a private bathroom with a walk-in shower and bathrobes. Additional in-room amenities include chocolates or cookies. At the guest house, units are equipped with bed linen and towels.

Undoubtedly one of the very best properties we have ever had the pleasure of staying at. Comfortable room, pleasant hosts and a great breakfast to top it off. If we owned a B&B this is what we would aspire to offer.

Set in Helston and only 16 km from St Michael's Mount, Strathallan Guest House offers accommodation with garden views, free WiFi and free private parking. This 4-star guest house offers a housekeeping service. Lizard Lighthouse & Heritage Centre is 19 km from the guest house and Minack Theatre is 37 km away.

We lived in Helston 1979-1981 and we wanted to stay where we could walk into town to reminisce our memories. It feels like home❤️ When we were planning our visit, I really wanted to stay in the heart of the village and The Strathallan was perfect. Our room was cozy with all the comforts needed. David and Valerie are the heart and soul of Strathallan and make you feel so very welcome. OH MY WORD, breakfast everyday was amazing, Chef David is a class act in the kitchen. Oh night we mentioned just going to get Chinese take-away and he said he would set a table for two in the breakfast room for us to use to eat our dinner. The gesture was so very special and we would highly recommend The Strathallan to everyone. Well done and we’ll be back. Thank You, Russ and Sue

My partner and I stayed here for 3 nights. The accommodation was brilliant. The room was clean with good facilities. All the staff were welcoming, attentive and helpful. You are provided with supplies to make your own breakfast, which had a variety of choice and was well received. The pub was in a great location to explore areas nearby. We would highly recommend The Prince of Wales and are already planning our return! 😊

Everything was nice but the breakfast was totally spectacular. Also the place seemed to be lawyer free. I had specified that I had an allergy to lawyers and they seem to respect that

The guest house is fitted with a satellite flat-screen TV. Towels and bed linen are offered in the guest house.

Newquay Train Station is 46 km from the guest house, while The Lizard and Kynance Cove is 18 km from the property. The nearest airport is Land's End Airport, 34 km from Bosloe.

As I explained in my previous email your website wrongly led us to believe we were booking bed and breakfast. It was a shock to realise breakfast was not included. However, we had a very comfortable stay and found the faciities very good and Nicki and Bryan very helpful. This needs to be amended on booking.com as other guests could be seriously disadvantaged by this.

Overlooking Portleven Harbour, The Harbour Inn offers spacious rooms with en suite facilities. With free parking and free Wi-Fi, there is also a traditional restaurant, a cosy bar and sea views.

The large rooms at Harbour Inn are bright and airy, and many offer views across Portleven Bay. All rooms feature tea and coffee facilities, a TV and hairdryer, and some have a comfortable seating area.

Lovely to have the bar downstairs, to be able to go down by the fire in our slippers and eat and drink, then go back to our room.

    Great location for exploring the beaches and coastal walks. Comfortable, spacious accommodation. Beautiful garden to sit, relax and eat in. Quiet village. Hosts were helpful. Would love to go back. Recommend the pub in Cadgwith on a Friday evening for shanty singing. Kynance Cove a must as is the Lizard Peninsular. Accommodation is only 15/20 min walk to a great little beach, Kennack Sands.

    The location, although not central to the centre of Helston, was by car central to all the places we wished to visit, so for us was in a great location. It was easy to find and we enjoyed the quietness of the surroundings, the excellent room and service of our hosts.

    The quiet location was idyllic and the accommodation ideal for our 1 night stop over onward to St Ives. Paul was a great host and his recommendation of the White Hart for dinner was superb.

    This is such a cosy and welcoming space, yet somehow more spacious than I had expected! Both the living room/kitchen and bedroom are dual aspect with lovely views in both directions. It's in such a great location for getting out and about, but also so quiet and peaceful if you decide to stay in. Heather and Rob were ideal hosts and so helpful and welcoming. Croft View is much more than just a holiday let - it's a proper holiday home.

    The location, the peace & quiet, the bird watching out the window. Alison & Richard who were great hosts, had a lovely surprise of a cream tea left in fridge with milk & 6 lovely eggs from the chickens! Would definitely recommend this for a stress free break.

    A lovely quiet location and the room, ensuite and breakfast room were pristine in cleanliness. My hostess was so friendly and welcoming and served up a beautiful breakfast each morning. I must fully recommend the fruit salad, outstanding! Only a short distance from Helston and just off the Falmouth Road, it's a great location for exploring the area. Recommended for couples or single travellers, you will be welcomed by the great hostess, Vicky.
