Set in Scorrier, in a historic building, 23 km from Newquay Train Station, Goonearl Simply Stay is a guest house with a garden and barbecue facilities. Private parking is available on site at this recently renovated property. Outdoor seating allows guests to sit outside and enjoy the good weather. This a real home from home. It has everything you could possibly need. The kitchen is brilliant and is more than fully equipped, the log fire made the front room really cosy, the bed was comfy. I can't recommend it enough.

Located in Constantine, within 22 km of Lizard Lighthouse and 24 km of St Michael's Mount, Silverspring Farm En suite provides accommodation with a garden as well as free private parking for guests who drive. The property is set 31 km from Carbis Bay, 40 km from Newquay Train Station and 45 km from Minack Theatre. The guest house offers garden views and an outdoor pool. Super-cosy but spacious, clean room with lovely decorations and a private bathroom. I love the peaceful surroundings, beautiful ponies, friendly dogs, and the swimming pool at the property - which is a good add-on for summertime! The most important - host - is an absolutely fantastic and extremely helpful lady who really cares to make her guests at home and we really did! We will definitely come back when visiting Cornwall again!

Situated just 28 km from St Michael's Mount, The Prince of Wales features accommodation in Helston with access to a garden, a bar, as well as private check-in and check-out. This guest house provides free private parking, a shared kitchen and free WiFi. The property is non-smoking and is located 16 km from Lizard Lighthouse. The property itself was very well kept, I would say the pictures do it no Justice. I was pleasantly surprised to see how nicely decored the rooms were. Me and my partner would recommend this place to anyone. I found the rooms slightly smaller than most places but the cleanliness/decor and kitchenette certainly made up for it.

Loved the spaciousness of the apartment as well. Modern bathroom and lots of storage space. Prompt communication from Emma.
