We had a fantastic Spring 2013 weekend break at Polmena House. Charlayne made us very welcome & was a charming host, as well as providing us with lots of local tips and recommendations. We had a lovely large comfortable room (The Balcony) with super views over the valley. Breakfast was freshly cooked & absolutely delicious - nothing was too much... More

We stayed at the Polmena House August bank holiday weekend, it was a very warm welcome we had on arrival, especially after driving all day. The room we had was large and very comfortable with great views across the valley. We have no hesitation in recommending this B&B and we will plan to visit again sometime in the future. Well... More

We visited Polmena House in June 2012. Charlayne is a charming and welcoming hostess. Our room was large and very comfortable, with beautiful views over the valley. Breakfast was plentiful and delicious. Lostwitheil is a lovely town and a great base for day trips to Tintagel and Padstow or the Lost Gardens of Heligan and Fowey.

We stayed for two nights and Charlayne was very helpful throughout. The room and breakfast were extremely nice and they were very flexible despite our awkward arrival time and breakfast requirements!

We arrived very late on a Friday, after a nightmare trip round the M25, yet we were made to feel welcome as soon as we pulled up. In fact, as we arrived Charlayne was just texting me to find out if we were OK and whether we needed any help with the directions. Throughout the stay, both she and her... More

Originally my husband and I were expected at another B&B in the area. It took forever to locate and then I found a note left on the door explaining that they were called away on a family emergency! The alternative they had arranged was a 2 night stay at Polmena House. An unexpected turn of events - after all the... More

Polmena House is our first choice of B&B whenever we visit Cornwall. Charlayne and David make us very welcome and we always feel we are amongst friends. In a beautiful setting with views towards the River Fowey, the accommodation is spacious and comfortable. Charlayne provides an excellent breakfast, using local produce wherever possible. Situated up a quiet lane with on-site... More

Picked at random off the internet, we had a wonderfull time with a warm and friendly reception. This is a small B&B but the rooms are generous with full size en-suite bathrooms. Polmena is build on a steep Cornish slope and so inevitably the steps and paths are not suitable for people with restricted mobility. A wheelchair would be impossible.... More
