The room was large, clean and comfortable, I had some excellent nights sleeps. The en suite was spacious with a good sized shower.... More

Stopped here for 3 nights for a short break and to visit family nearby. On arrival we were greeted by the owner Geoff and the first thing that hit me was the lovely smell of the wood burning open fire in the lounge.

Lovely character B & B right in the heart of St Agnes, the host, Geoff made us very welcome and happily showed us the rooms before we decided to stay. As Aussies traveling through Cornwall we really love any period properties so the quaint room with it's totally uneven floor, low beams and stone walls was all part of the... More
