Just a 2-minute walk from Penzance seafront, this 4-star, elegant guest house offers unique, stylish rooms and lovely sea views over Mounts Bay. Free Wi-Fi is available.

Bright and modern, every room at Duporth Guest house is individually decorated and features a fridge, microwave, and toaster. Rooms all feature an en suite bathroom and hairdryer, along with a TV and tea/coffee facilities.

We loved how the breakfast was organised with it being on a self catering basis but all potted up ready and presented beautifully - especially the fruit. The quality of fixtures and fittings was excellent especially the shower cubical and it's power etc. The location was also lovely next to the sea.

Less than a 10-minute drive from St Ives and a 10-minute walk from the sandy Carbis Bay beach, Downsfield Bed and Breakfast offers rooms with free Wi-Fi, a guest lounge with a log burner, and a garden.

It was excellent above expectations. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. If there was one small thing to add it would be the size of the towels. We would both have preferred 'bath sheet ' size. But we managed !

    I travel all over Cornwall with work and stay in some of the best Hotels but in Penzance my budget doesn’t stretch far. This quaint little friendly pub is a lovely place to stay. The rooms are very clean and the bed is very comfy! The breakfast which is brought to your room is stunning! Lovely staff that make you feel very welcome. Next door is another pub that serves very good food and again the staff are very friendly.

    Our room was cosy and clean, Bathroom was clean and the shower lovely and powerful. View from the lounge across Mounts Bay was stunning. Breakfast very good. Proper tea in a teapot. Staff lovely and helpful. A hotel built for comfort and not overdesigned or themed. Lots of gilt and comfort, no chrome and hardness. When you go up the staircase look up. The glass atrium is wonderful.
