The Britannia Inn & Waves Restaurant 4 stars

St Austell

The Britannia Inn & Waves Restaurant features a garden, shared lounge, a terrace and restaurant in St Austell. This 4-star inn features free WiFi and a bar. The accommodation provides evening entertainment and dry cleaning services. The breakfast selection was unexpected; I had smoked salmon and superbly cooked scramble eggs. The lounge is very comfortable and the dining room is spacious. A guest information binder is very comprehensive including sightseeing opportunities with directions.

Highermead House

Camelford

Located in Camelford, within 44 km of Newquay Train Station and 11 km of Tintagel Castle, Highermead House provides accommodation with a garden as well as free private parking for guests who drive. The property is situated 26 km from Launceston Castle, 33 km from Restormel Castle and 35 km from Eden Project. Highermead House was one of the less expensive places the GPS showed reasonably close to Tintagel (King Arthur's castle) so we booked it without high expectations. Boy, were we surprised, starting with the nice confirmation note Kasey sent. The GPS took us to a tiny gate in a very narrow tree tunnel. But a few yards further is the wide entrance with lots of parking around what will one day be a fountain (once the outside is renovated). Jon greeted us and took us through a large, beautiful, warm and welcoming, sitting room to a very nicely decorated room that had everything we'd need - microwave, fridge, dishes, table and chairs, lighted mirror in the bathroom, nook in the shower for shower gel. Without having met Kasey, I knew immediately it was her work. She had put some serious thought and effort into it. Later she told me she put everything in it that she would want. Thank you, Jon and Kasey, for being so warm and friendly and having such delightfully fun boys. We couldn't have picked a better place to stay! I'd give it 20 stars if I could!

The Prince of Wales

Helston

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 & Heritage Centre. 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.
