Mount View Hotel B&B

Mount View Hotel B&B

10/10 Excellent
"Quite possibly the best value bed and breakfast I have ever stayed in. Easy to find and between Penzance and Marazion, it’s perfectly situated. The beds were comfy and the room was clean. The hot drinks and water provided was a lovely touch. Yes - the place is a little rough around some of the edges but the staff are so helpful and friendly - and above all kind. Nothing is too much trouble. Breakfast was delicious and huge! I would always look for this place when coming back to this area. I stayed with children who loved it and loved the staff."

Housel Bay Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"This is an excellent place to stay. I managed to find the hotel easily by using google maps. I was able to park my car in one of the couple of empty spaces available (however I visited in the end of September, I'm not sure if I would've found a space in peak time, unless there was additional parking capacity I didn't spot). I was greeted by name by a lovely and warm staff member on reception, who took the time to provide a tour of the hotel and where my room was located, along with providing some local hotspot tips and recommendations. The room was lovely and clean and just as the photo showed (but could do with a re-paint). It came with excellent Cornwall tea hot drink options and some very useful complimentary ear buds (which was useful given there was a storm that night, and you can hear the lighthouse, which isn't too far away). The hotel is right on the coastal path with stunning views of the sea and lighthouse, and access to a private bay in low tide. The food in The Terrace restaurant in the evening and for breakfast was truly incredible with excellent service at all times - I would highly recommend eating here at least once! There's a great snug area to make the most of the sea views and enjoy a drink/book/games which was a lovely touch. All staff were incredibly helpful, professional and friendly. As a solo traveller, I felt very safe staying here and would definitely recommend to others."

The St Ives Bay Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Positives: The bed was extremely comfortable and the bedding and towels were immaculate. The shower was a great temperature, albeit on the small size. The view of the bay from my balcony was unbelievably beautiful. I’ve never woken to a better view. The staff were friendly and my luggage was carried to my room. The check in and check out was fuss-free. I believe there is parking available, though I used the long-stay carpark, just opposite. Negatives: the rooms are VERY dated and in need of a LOT of TLC. If you can look beyond this, the hotel is a fantastic place to stay for a reasonable rate. Especially for St Ives. It would be good to see the place brought back to life with a lick of paint."

8/10 Good
"It’s a pretty little cottage in a good location. The parking is slightly difficult but there are car parks near by. The house had a slightly musty smell downstairs. There are way too many trinkets about and the middle bedroom is pretty small it has a double bed but there is very little space around it. The showers are pretty bad with very little pressure. I was surprised that we had to strip our own beds at the end of our stay. There are some excellent fish restaurants in Mousehole and the village is very pretty"

"Good room. Had a seaside view room. Room was a bit dated but still lovely. Good bathroom. Pillows were too soft for my personal preference. Staff was amazing. Had a good chuckle with a waitress who was there in the evening, and then the morning. Food was delicious. Very tasty. Cocktails and drinks were delicious. Spa was great, very relaxing massage."

"Our holiday with my daughter as she celebrated her 18th birthday was brilliant, however I have a few disappointed during our staying in caravan, the caravan was nice, a wide area good atmosphere an so-rounding, the concern is the toilet there is no caddy soap, no rug on the floor, no WiFi. No free towels. But a part from that I love Cornwall, I will coming back again on the summer time next year."
