Reviews

Paul 10/10

Comfortable, warm BnB with delicious breakfasts

Pros: Kevin and Claire are exceptional hosts. After 5 days hiking from Plymouth, Old Temperance House was a very welcome respite from the wind and rain. The room was very clean, with a comfortable bed and a large, well-appointed en suite bathroom. Kevin's breakfasts were delicious - incredible scrambled eggs! The house is also super well located in the centre of the village next to two pubs (had a good Sunday roast at the White Hart), the Spar, bus stop and parking.

Cons: Nothing!

St Keverne

Pros: Room was excellent, the House was beautiful, and so clean and very peaceful too. The breakfast was lovely too, and there was no waiting for it either. It was also not crowded, just enough people there 🙂

Cons: Its a shame that the check-in time is only 4pm, would be easier if it could have been a little bit earlier. Check-out is fine at 10am though 🙂
