Teg

Helston

"Such a lovely little holiday home, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Teg is literally in the middle of nowhere, blink and you’ll miss the turning so make sure you read your email directions. We didn’t! We followed the sites postcode directions which aren’t specific enough. The accommodation is so quaint, lots of lovely blues and Cornish ware China, everything you need to make a cup of tea and coffee and toast and the hosts very kindly left us a cream tea to enjoy when we arrived. The bed? One...

Cottage in Praa Sands Near the Beach

Helston

"Great space that serves as a wonderful retreat from the everyday. Cosy and perfect for two people, it has great access to the south of Cornwall but also serves as a good base to go and explore the rest of Cornwall if you're willing to drive. Space was nice and quiet and you'll be able to properly switch off. Just be aware that the road down to the property is a little narrow so don't be speeding your way through that country lane!"

Savoy View

Helston

"Just returned from a 7 night stay at Savoy view apartment The accommodation was excellent, everything needed for the stay was provided and the rooms were tastefully decorated and spotlessly clean. We arrived early after a 6 hour drive and expected we’d have to wait around a few hours until check in but we were surprised to notice that the key had been made available a lot earlier which was lovely. The property is in an ideal location for exploring the beaches and coves on the Lizard peninsula....

Top Helston Hotel Reviews

The Paris Hotel

8/10 Good

"We had a lovely room with sea views from each of our two windows. The breakfast was excellent and the staff were very friendly and helpful. We booked a table for an evening meal and this was very good. The location of the hotel was great. You can walk from the hotel on the coastal path to St Keverne (about 2 miles) although this is very challenging. However after we'd walked on this path, we found out there was actually an easier path which we'll walk along next time. We might even get to St Keverne as this time we turned round after about 45 mins."

Polurrian on the Lizard

10/10 Excellent

"Good room. Had a seaside view room. Room was a bit dated but still lovely. Good bathroom. Pillows were too soft for my personal preference. Staff was amazing. Had a good chuckle with a waitress who was there in the evening, and then the morning. Food was delicious. Very tasty. Cocktails and drinks were delicious. Spa was great, very relaxing massage."

Mullion Cove Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Staff were very helpful. Breakfast’s good and the room was clean."

Three Tuns

10/10 Excellent

"The staff, the warm welcome, the bar and the food were all excellent. Great service and we felt completely at home. The room was clean and comfortable with everything you would need."

Old Temperance House

8/10 Good

"Sehr zuvorkommender netter Gastgeber, sehr leckeres und individuelles Frühstück. Großer Schlafraum und großes Bad nach engl. Standard. Unbedingt sollte man die Roskilly-s Farm besuchen."

The Black Swan

10/10 Excellent

"Great room above a lovely pub. Comfortable bed and good shower. The pub had a wide menu and the food was very good. Also a good choice of ales. 5 minute walk to the Cornish Seal Sanctuary. Large car park. Friendly and helpful staff."

The Old Post Office

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful BnB, located in a lovely spot. I enjoyed the scones or pastry for breakfast. We had the best room with a great view- felt very special to stay in this old post office. Lovely housekeeper and it was nice chatting to the other guest over breakfast."

Cottage set in 2 acres, next to coast path, short walk to beach, pub & cafe! 😎

10/10 Excellent

"The cottage was the perfect place for my partner, our dog, and me. Paula and Paul are fantastic hosts who give you plenty of space to enjoy your stay, while always remaining available to help out and offer local advice. The cream tea on arrival was a very welcome treat, and the cottage itself was spotless, featuring lovely touches that made it feel incredibly homely. It is just a short walk to The Devil’s Frying Pan—which is well worth a wander over with a glass of wine to watch the moon rise.Cadgwith village is less than a quarter-mile walk down a fairly steep footpath, but it is well worth the effort for the fresh fish and authentic insights into local life. We loved the folk singing at the pub, the great food, and the lovely surrounding walks. The location is also perfectly central for visiting other spots around the Lizard Peninsula."

Higher Trenear Farm

10/10 Excellent

"Great place, the yurt and kitchen cabin had all you could need and was well maintained and clean. Lovely, peaceful surroundings and kids loved the pigs, goats and chickens. Highly recommended!"
