“Small but perfectly formed!”

Reviewed 8 May 2013

A really clean B &B, very professionally run in a pleasant and courteous manner by both owner and staff. The rooms may not be large, but it is a B&B, not a luxury hotel, and the rooms are fully equipped and well laid out, with all the usual provisions, and a comfortable bed. Breakfast was cooked to a high standard,... More

“Far exceeded expectations”

Reviewed 9 October 2012

Cornerways met and in fact far exceeded my expectations which had been generated by the description on its website. As a guest house it sets a very high standard. I spent three nights there at the end of September. Its location really was only a three minute walk from the coach and train station on a quiet side street. Absolutely... More

I had a very enjoyable stay at Cornerways. The location was ideal as I arrived in Penzance by train and the guest house is less than 2 minutes away on foot.

“Extremely friendly service, accommodated all of my needs, perfectly clean, amazing attention to detail.”

Reviewed 4 September 2012 via mobile

Cornerways was my first stop on my 500 mile cycle ride for Leukaemia. Matt, the owner was very accommodating with a late check in, provided somewhere for me to store my bike, helped me with an evening snack and to get comfortable quickly for a great nights sleep. Breakfast was phenomenal! Great value for money and a quaint building!

Thank you so much for your lovely comment. I am very glad that you enjoyed your stay and our little snack on arrival. We would love to welcome you again one day. More
