An extremely well presented guest house. My room was clean and bright with a comfortable bed. I enjoyed an excellent breakfast, ample supplies of tea etc in the room, and most charming hosts. I am moving to the area and was much encouraged by Clive. I thoroughly recommend this establishment having stayed in others in the vicinity.

Very helpful and friendly couple in Denise & Clive! We got in early to change before going to a local wedding. The room was small but beautifully presented and the bathroom was luxurious with new M&S toiletries and fabulous towels. Nice touches included padded coathangers and tea making facilities (with Kitkats!!) and the breakfast included 3 types of sausage -... More

After a very warm welcome the owners Denise and Clive have been the perfect hosts.Their extraordinary hospitality together with awesome uniquely decorated rooms, a delicious breakfast and stunning surroundings turned our stay in St. Keverne into a marvellous and unforgettable experience. Best wishes and kind regards from the 2 German troublemakers to Denise and Clive :-)

Accomodation was first class. A huge amount of care and thought had been put into our room, ensuring great comfort and enjoyment. Clive and Denise were charming hosts even providing us with menus for the Greenhouse bistro across the road - a super local restaurent. The square provides shops and pubs and is the start for several lovely walks. Breakfast... More

We spent 2 memorable nights here last week. The accomodation is first class and the breakfasts were, as good as, or better than those in 5 star hotels. The hospitality shown us by Clive and Denise was warm & welcoming. An experience not to be missed.

My third year diving in Porthkerris and staying in Old Temperance house, St Keverne. The rooms were beautiful and clean as always and the breakfasts are fantastic. Clive and Denise made every effort to our stay as good as it could be, with hangers for my dive kit in the garage and early breakfasts.

So we booked four nights and eagerly awaited for our holiday to start. When we arrived in St Keverne we found the house very easily and were... More
