Stayed for 3 nights in the Green Room, which has a gorgeous four-poster bed. Nikki was a very welcoming host and Merlin, her dog, is a sweetie. Breakfast was plentiful and a good choice for all appetites. We enjoyed our chats with Nikki over breakfast! The room was cosy, comfortable and warm. Cannot fault our stay. Nikki, you are an excellent host. Please give Merlin a biscuit from us! Great stay and thank you once again 😍

A very warm and cozy base for my weekend in Cornwall. Nikki was very welcoming and friendly and Merlin (the German Shepherd) is just the most adorable and big softie ever. The room was quirky and the furniture was all antique, which added to the quirkyness. Pleasantly surprised that I had a small fridge plus all the usual amenities for tea and coffee etc. The breakfast was lovely and for me just the right portion size and fuel for my half marathon at the Eden Project. St Austell is a 5 minute walk away and was suitable for my needs for food in the evening. Would definitely stay here again

Great place to stay and perfectly placed for touring the area. Nikki and Merlin, her very friendly German Shepherd, made our stay a real pleasure and we felt welcomed and very much at home Very clean and comfortable , great room and spot on breakfast. Even a pot of tea and home made scones when we came back after our day out. Definitely will go back again. Thanks Nikki.

Only than ten mins walk from St Austell centre, this B&B oozes charm - definitely no generic, standardised pre-fabby place to stay, it is, I believe,over a hundred and fifty years old. It is run by Nicky who is a welcoming host and always glad to help on any local issues, ie, transport, directions, best places to eat, etc. We opted for the four-poster-bed room, otherwise known as the ‘green room’ - comfortable and spacious with a wonderfully warm and soothing power shower. The breakfasts are varied and I should imagine cater to most tastes. Plenty of parking at the side of the building and easy to check in. By the way, Nicky has a cute and friendly dog named Merlin - very well-trained he provides a lot of entertaining conversation. As the title of this review goes, I would recommend!…

Fabulous breakfasts, lovely owner and beautiful chilled out dog Merlin. The Green Room (4 poster) was really comfy. Great location for seeing Cornwall by bus or car. Charlestown great for an evening meal and drinks but you’ll need to prebook a taxi there and back as they’re not easy to get. We walked in (around 45mins) and taxi’d back. Bed really comfy.
