Housel Bay Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The staff and location of Housel Bay are outstanding! We can't wait to visit again."

The Paris Hotel

The Paris Hotel

8/10 Good

"We had a lovely room with sea views from each of our two windows. The breakfast was excellent and the staff were very friendly and helpful. We booked a table for an evening meal and this was very good. The location of the hotel was great. You can walk from the hotel on the coastal path to St Keverne (about 2 miles) although this is very challenging. However after we'd walked on this path, we found out there was actually an easier path which we'll walk along next time. We might even get to St Keverne as this time we turned round after about 45 mins."
