Set in Scorrier, in a historic building, 23 km from Newquay Train Station, Goonearl Simply Stay is a guest house with a garden and barbecue facilities. Private parking is available on site at this recently renovated property. Outdoor seating allows guests to sit outside and enjoy the good weather. Marnie was a wonderful host and offered great suggestions for day trips. Goonearl is centrally located for all the wonderful attractions. The guest house itself has great communal cooking facilities and comfortable shared lounges and dining. Complimentary coffee tea and pastries and fruit was a nice touch. Good to have a washing machine to use to. The bedroom was comfortable and very clean and the balcony looked over the beautiful garden. As a single traveller I felt safe and comfortable. This would be a great place for a group booking with lots of board games and books to read. A haven to get back to after a day out sight seeing. Only 2 km to the local beach..

Located in Constantine, within 22 km of Lizard Lighthouse and 24 km of St Michael's Mount, Silverspring Farm En suite provides accommodation with a garden as well as free private parking for guests who drive. The property is set 31 km from Carbis Bay, 40 km from Newquay Train Station and 45 km from Minack Theatre. The guest house offers garden views and an outdoor pool. Super-cosy but spacious, clean room with lovely decorations and a private bathroom. I love the peaceful surroundings, beautiful ponies, friendly dogs, and the swimming pool at the property - which is a good add-on for summertime! The most important - host - is an absolutely fantastic and extremely helpful lady who really cares to make her guests at home and we really did! We will definitely come back when visiting Cornwall again!

Situated in Penzance, 300 metres from Penzance Promenade Beach, The Old Club features rooms with sea views and free WiFi. This recently renovated guest house is located 7.2 km from St Michael's Mount and 15 km from Minack Theatre. Lizard Lighthouse is 41 km from the guest house and Tate St Ives is 15 km away. Lovely building with lots of character. The room was very spacious, nicely renovated in an unusual way (the open plan bathroom/bedroom). Liked the location as it was right next to the Lidl store and in a quieter part of town.
