We especially liked the conservatory which was ideal on the days when it was wet and windy. The dog loved the garden too. Cream tea on arrival was a nice touch.

Everything that you (& your four legged friend) could need for a very comfortable stay including a cream tea for us and treats for the pooch. Incidentally pottery dog bowls, towels and a doggie blanket are also provided which is a nice touch. A secure garden which gets the afternoon sun is most pleasant. Easy reach of the town, probably about 20 minute walk and 10 mins to the dog friendly beach. We'd certainly reccomend this as a great place to stay in Penzance.

The garden was good for the dogs as it was enclosed and completely safe. The double beds were a bit small, as we are used to bigger beds but for a week it was ok. It was really nice to sit at the table in the conservatory, very bright and plenty of room. Kitchen was well equipped and had everything we needed. Nice location to visit all the places we wanted to in the area and leaflets in the house gave us some ideas of where to go. Thank you (and for the cream tea!).
