This large Victorian house is 500 metres from Penzance seafront. It has free WiFi, free parking and rooms with modern en suite bathrooms and Freeview TV. The Dunedin Guest House is on a road leading to the seafront, with its long promenade and sheltered bay. It is 800 metres from the shops, pubs and restaurants of Penzance town centre.

We enjoyed everything about the property. The location was perfectly situated for our needs as we were travelling by train and bus. Our hosts were knowledgeable about their community and therefore we were able to plan our days by walking to or taking buses to our destinations. Breakfast which was included was perfect with many choices of fruit, yogurt, cereals and cooked breakfast.

Built in the 1830's, this charming Regency guest house features sea views, a free private car park and Wi-Fi.

Most rooms have stunning views of the bay, whilst all feature a TV, free tea and coffee, and a private bathroom.

We chose this B & B based on previous reviews and were not disappointed. Garrin, Alison and Louise were very welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. The accommodation was spotless and our room was perfect. Breakfast was delicious and we had some lovely chats afterwards. My wife has a medical issue with her eyes and this was accommodated for. Thank you. A bottle of champagne was kept in their fridge as it was our wedding anniversary. They even presented us with a box of delicious chocolates to celebrate. It is the perfect place to park. If you want to you can leave the car and catch public transport. Certainly deserves a 5 star rating.

Situated in Penzance and only 400 metres from Penzance Promenade Beach, Seascape features accommodation with sea views, free WiFi and free private parking. It is located 7.2 km from St Michael's Mount and provides a shared kitchen. The guest house has family rooms.

I answered excellent to all of the above so that explains my thoughts otherwise I’m repeating. I suppose what I loved is the cleanliness of the place, met some super people and loved that it was so handy to town. Communication beforehand was excellent.

    The Kings Arms is just a little way out of Penzance situated in a beautiful little village. We dined at the pub which was really popular with locals and visitors, the food on each occasion was superb as was breakfast each morning. Our room was nice with a view of the little church. The bed was comfortable and we slept well.

    This cabin and shepherds hut complex is out of the way for private travellers to Scilly and hikers to Mounts View. Very quiet indeed. Locals on the way to badminton gave me a lift. Proper old Cornwall in a farming setting. No chip shop, minibar, swimming pool, no smoking area, no hassle. Great if you are driving.
