The location was fairly close to everything and it was quiet, that’s important to us. Breakfast was top notch continental and June made delicious fresh cakes every afternoon for guests to enjoy later in the day. Both June and Greg were very informative about the area and were helpful and accommodating in every way! Thank you for a lovely stay. Highly recommended!

Truro is a lovely city in Cornwall.
Truro is a lovely city in Cornwall. People are friendly and hospitable. Tons of restaurants, shops, cafe's, and there is a Town Hall that has entertainment, movie house so a short stay here would be filled with lots to do. The Cathedral is a lovely place to visit and there is lots to do from this central point.
Hire a car and head to Newquay, Falmouth or St Ives for the day.

City centre was lovely!
City centre was lovely! We enjoyed meandering through the cathedral (which was very grand, the architecture absolutely brought me to tears, managed to light a prayer candle for lent, also they have an ongoing exhibit about awareness of abuse in the church) and the cornwall museum is closeby :D they have wacky artefacts. The coffee and cornish pasties and the pastries are the bomb dot com but the other grub not so much, i mean, it's just typical british fare innit haha also truro station connects easily to penzance and the other more touristy bits. Transportationwise, quite hard, buses are a little but unreliable even with the time table. Not much uber drivers but the taxis are popping. There are taxis around the station and they have a taxi calling app and there are cards that you can get from the accommodation. Pretty old timey but charming.

Truro is an attractive small city and it’s easy to find parking and to walk around the shops and see the cathedral.
There are plenty of places to have coffee or lunch.
The bus station is right beside the shopping area, which has a large Marks and Spencer’s, which has a cafe, a large branch of Waterstones as well as a good selection of independent shops and an indoor market.

Great base for exploring Cornwall but not sure what it’s like in summer. We parked in the town with ease but we visited in November.
Masses of shops. It is the county town so is a magnet for shoppers.
Cathedral and Cornwall Museum worth a visit. Hall for Cornwall has a variety of shows.
Thoroughly enjoyed the pasty shop for lunch.
Check roadworks though. A30 was closed intoTrurofor the whole weekend whilst work is going on building the new by pass. It took us ages to follow the detour.

I did want to explore the town a bit more, especially the cathedral, but this visit was to see a show and I had to return the next day.
I had a meal at an Italian restaurant literally up the road from the hotel, it was decent enough.

Truro is a lovely place to visit.
Truro is a lovely place to visit. Old and new buildings to see and plenty of places to go. Resturants of many different cuisines and a nice open area to sit and chill with a coffee. There is a beach, about 7 miles away, (Perranporth) which is lovely and has the traiditional fish and chips, kiss me quick hats etc and you're not too far away from the north side so Newquay etc is all available within 45 to 60 minutes in the car.
Supermarkets are a plenty in and around Truro too. The catherdral is a must to visit. A beautiful building and well worth some time spent.
The bedroom was lovely, and had views over the courtyard terrace bar. The hotel was lovely and quite romantic. The restaurant was lovely and the food was expensive, but high quality, so you can't complain. The location was great, being 10 mins walk to town, and 10 min drive to Penmount Crematorium where we had a family event to attend. The whole family dined at the hotel for lunch afterwards and everyone said how nice the food was and 'wow are you really staying here?'.
This is a stunning property. Immaculately presented with quality decor, bedding and towels. Well equipped kitchen. Extremely comfortable beds. Claire has thought of everything!
Short riverside walk into Truro or Boscowan Park. Elevated position providing beautiful views across the river with fab sunsets. Easy access to major routes for visiting other areas of Cornwall. Generous parking area - a definite bonus when booking stays in Cornwall.
We organised a last minute break 4 night break to Cornwall and chose Chycara because it was within budget, the location was perfect and the accommodation was different to what we’d normally book (a b&b/hotel). We stayed in the Lake Lodge which was, as you’d expect, near the lake. It was clean and tidy and located in beautiful, peaceful grounds. Set just outside of Truro we were within easy reach of the east & west coast.
Room was spacious, clean and quiet. Very comfortable bed and perfect location for Truro, just a 5 min walk from the train station. Staff were friendly and very accommodating to people's requests. Food was superb… compliments to the chefs for both the breakfasts and Sunday lunch which I thought was reasonably priced for the quality. Ambience in the bar was great and a nice place to be. Would definitely return.
Had an amazing stay. The rooms were great and morning breakfast was amazing. The hosts were amazing and were very helpful in suggesting the right places to visit and transportation options. Both Norbet and Peter were really friendly and would like to thank them for all the support they provided us during our first visit to cornwall. Would highly recommend this place to anyone visiting cornwall and truro.
So fortunate to book one of the last rooms available at this absolutely beautiful decorated hotel. Had the pleasure of meeting the very gracious owner.
The courtyard was beautiful & a very generous continental breakfast, which was amazingly included in he price.
Definitely booking here for a longer stay next time I'm visiting the Playhouse, Hall of Cornwall.
What an amazing place. Right on the river, so peaceful. The cottage is clean, cosy and has everything you need.
The owners were lovely and very helpful.
The location is perfect for exploring Cornwall or you can just sit by the river and relax.
The pool here is such a bonus.
We honestly feel very lucky to have found this place. We will be back very soon.
A beautiful hotel in a great location for exploring Cornwall. Our room was really comfortable with a lovely view over the gardens, comfortable bed, and the best bathroom with an excellent shower. Breakfast was delightful, plated to order and served by friendly staff. The staff at reception were all so welcoming and helpful.
The location is on a main road and so easy to get in and out of. The breakfast was very good and the room was big, quiet and very comfortable. The staff were very friendly and very helpful. It was a very pleasant stay and I will definitely use the hotel again.
We enjoyed a pleasant two night stay in the County Arms. Facilities were good. Room was warm and comfortable and all staff were very pleasant. Ideally located in the outskirts of Truro, the property makes an ideal base for touring the south coast of Cornwall.
Very clean and cosy. Good facilities- loved the shower. Good to have an on-site parking space large enough for a SUV. Close walking distance to the city centre. Perfect location to explore Cornwall by car, train and bus.
Lovely house and very good confortable spacious room. Owners were extremely friendly and ready to provide information on Cornwall and sites. Ben is a great cook and made us superb breakfasts!
Very easy to get to, close to Truro. Wendy was very friendly and helpful, room & bathroom extremely clean, top notch breakfast. Overall a very enjoyable stay, would certainly recommend it.
The property is in an excellent position, surrounded by beautiful scenery. To walk into Truro. Phone is provided everything that would make a perfect stay.
So convenient for concerts at Hall for Cornwall (BBC Singers), then Truro Cathedral (The Sixteen) as right in the centre of town, but no traffic noise.
