We loved our stay here. A warm welcome, comfy bed and a great breakfast! I had messaged to ask if they had wine glasses, as we hoped to play cards and drink wine in the lovely grounds. Wine glasses were kindly provided in our room.

Lovely night stop over,the room was clean, comfortable and had everything needed for your stay,although slightly dated it is an old property and the furnishings fitted in with the age of the property. Staff were excellent, very helpful and friendly. Breakfast was good . Good value for money. If you want a place to stay for a quick stop over and easy access for places to see in Cornwall then it’s great.

We received a warm welcome and the owners were friendly and polite. The abbey was easy to locate and our room was comfortable and a good size. The breakfast is excellent and you can walk to a nearby pub for dinner. Pleased to see parking was provided as well. From here we explored the jail, Fowey, Charlestown and everything in between so it’s a central location. I would recommend the abbey for a nice place to stay if you want to see the surrounding areas.

Lovely hotel just off the Saints Way and they are really welcoming to walkers. Excellent breakfast, best eggs we had on the trip. Just a few minutes walk from a pub and chippy for an evening meal, these are on the Saints Way so you can eat before checking in and save yourself the extra steps. The building is old and historically interesting. The gardens are lovely to enjoy your coffee in
