Greg and June are very kind and really care about you. It is like being home away from home. We got suggestions about gardens we didn't know about.

We felt very welcome! Everything was fine! We parked our car just 5 minutes away by foot at the Mount Wise Car park. A lot to see and do next to the guest house, but still quiet at night. We loved the English breakfast and the kindness of the hosts!

Excellent. Great location to explore Cornwall. We stayed for 3 nights, and visited Perranporth, St.Ives, Lizard point, the Minack theatre, Penzance and St.Michael’s mount. All within an hour without rushing. The hosts are fantastic, the room was very nice, clean and comfortable. Shared kitchen was no problem, with storage for each room. Plenty of tea, coffee, and all the condiments to use, as well as biscuits and fresh fruit to help yourself to. A thoroughly enjoyable stay. Will definitely be back.

Superb room, cosy and comfortable. Wonderful hosts. The lady hostess gave us a great introduction about the house and the room. And then she baked a cake for our afternoon tea! Homemade cake- what more to expect! She also helped us to book a taxi for the following morning as we dropped the car in Truro. 10 min easy walk to the city centre of Truro where one can find lots of places to eat. The Cathedral is worth a visit! Thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this quaint town and in the Townhouse.

Dolphin Guest House is a true gem of a place: welcoming, comfortable, great location. Andrew and Stephanie are the perfect hosts and have created a cosy oasis right in the middle of bustling Looe. Exceptionally clean room and bathroom, wonderful room with fantastic facilities and an incredibly comfortable bed; amazing attention to detail, from the fresh milk in the fridge to free parking, fluffy towels and a proper hairdryer. Breakfast is cooked to order and delicious. Thanks for a brilliant couple of days.
