Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The room was tiny so it was a bit difficult to have two suitcases in it. Maybe shelves instead of the closet would be more workable for couples. The bathroom was the smallest but most functional I've ever had. Alan was really helpful with the map to find the best places about and tide table for visiting St Michaels Mount. Would definitely recommend it.

Cosy little room on the top floor. Comfortable and met my needs perfectly. Located just a street back from the promenade, and handy to town, supermarket, and a walk along the seafront.

Clean and comfortable room.

We had an enjoyable overnight stay before we caught the ferry to the Scilly Isles. The room wasn't huge but it was very comfortable and had everything we needed. The hosts were friendly and helpful.

Very good

Easy check in and checkout. Room was ideal for me and my 7 year old for a couple of nights. Not too far walk from the train station, about 15 minutes. Parking quite tricky but possible if you keep going round until you find a space. The owner’s instructions were very clear, we didn’t even meet them over the two days but got in and out fine.

Nice experience

We had a very nice experience at Chiverton. The host is really good. The stay is 15 mins stay from the centre, bus and train station. We can reach thr by walking alongside the beach. Worth for the money with all the essential facilities including a small fidge. Definitely visiting again...

A guest house located in a lovely old house 10 minutes walk from the centre. We had a room at the back, which was comfortable enough, but was a little small for us given we had luggage for 2 weeks. Shower was excellent

The top floor room I had was just perfect for my 2 night stay. It was spotlessly clean, comfy bed, lovely linens and soft towels. A great place to come home to after a day of sightseeing. The house is very quiet (apart from the Seagulls lol!) and you’ll receive a very warm welcome. It’s close to the seafront and a 15 minute walk from the railway and bus station. Tea and Coffee provided and I was thrilled to find a Gideon in the nightstand.

I wouldn’t have booked if I had known breakfast isn’t served here. Better places including breakfast at a lower price than Chiverton house Wouldn’t return and wouldn’t recommend They don’t respond to emails either.

Nice and clean, even though this is listed as a bed & breakfast please be aware no breakfast is included. Tea making facilities are included but would have been nice if water made available to make tea or coffee, you may need to bring your own. The road is not busy and just a turning away from the beach. Hosts were very nice and friendly and helpful.
