Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

Beautifully decorated and very charming especially with the original features of style of the cottage. Great location and easy access on roads to get to other parts of Cornwall. Host’s certainly made us feel welcome and very helpful. Will certainly like to visit again one day and highly recommend.

    Very clean and cosy room, with everything we needed, for a family of three. Small little touches that made the whole difference. Great property, Tony's Tavern here, that provides food throughout the day, when staying in. Great location, within minutes of St Michael's Mount and many others, to enjoy the best of the Cornish experience.

    We had an amazing time at Tregaddra Farm, all thanks to June's amazing hospitality. She went above and beyond to accommodate everyone and her warmth and positive energy truly made it a joyful and memorable holiday. Spotlessly clean and comfortable and a great location for exploring Cornwall. Breakfast was amazing, from fully cooked breakfast to eggs, toast, cereals and fruit. Very careful covid safe precautions in place. Highly recommended and will definitely return!

    Booked a whole dorm room for our family of 5. This is a hostel with real rustic character, a construction with a story or two to tell with an eclectic mix of reclaimed and recycled materials. Future projects of pizza oven nearing completion. Recycling eco friendly ethos. Note, veggie only kitchen for the vegetable phobic. Family friendly. Washing facilities on site. Nature walk and woodlands. Lifts, hoists and disabled friendly Great location- the seal sanctuary is recommended. Grounds still in construction but characterful.
