Spotless clean room and bathroom and a very comfortable bed. Calm quiet and beautifully green surroundings. The bistro was very warm and cozy and we had the best fish and chips over there. We would highly recommend this place and would certainly love to go back maybe to stay in one of their caravans the next time.

Located in Penzance and only 8.7 km from Minack Theatre, Tregiffian Farm B&B provides accommodation with sea views, free WiFi and free private parking. The bed and breakfast, set in a building dating from 19th century, is 19 km from St Michael's Mount and 27 km from Tate St Ives. Land's End is 12 km from the bed and breakfast.

Remote, quiet, location in a stone house with a view to the ocean. Onlyy two guest rooms, so you feel like guests of the owners, who are very friendly and live in the house as well. Close to the Coastal Route for walking, and the Merry Maids Stone circle and the Tregiffian Burrow is just at the head of the road. Nice breakfast.

Units are complete with a private bathroom, while certain units at the bed and breakfast also have a seating area. At the bed and breakfast, the units have bed linen and towels.

All the staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating, especially the breakfast team. They were able to book me in for dinner even though the restaurant was very busy. The food was amazing at the restaurant and they had some nice ales in the bar. Any noise that you hear from outside the bar stops promptly when it closes at 10pm. It was just a very pleasant stay, made so much better by all of the staff , I interacted with 5 of the team across my 2 night stay and they were all really friendly and hospitable. In the room, I really appreciated the French press and enough ground coffee for me to make plenty of coffee across my stay! I was able to walk down to the sea (less than 5 mins) each morning for a swim before breakfast. As a solo traveller the room size worked for me, it is small but that cannot be changed! They are well laid out and have everything you need and are very modern, clearly re-decorated recently.

Bay Lodge is situated in Penzance. Complimentary WiFi is offered.

A continental breakfast is available daily at the bed and breakfast.

Snorkelling and windsurfing can be enjoyed nearby.

St Ives is 13 km from Bay Lodge. The nearest airport is Land's End Airport, 16 km from the property.

The Bay Lodge was a wonderful experience on many levels! From the greeting by Clare the uber friendly owner who directed me to my really nice single room with a balcony and answered any and all questions that I had. The balcony was a nice touch even in January where I had a nice view of St. Michael's Mount. Bay lodge is very conveniently located, about a ten minute walk from the train station and town. The breakfast cooked up by Kevin was delicious and very filling. Clare was great to talk to about goings on in Penzance and the surrounding area; she even gave me a "Clare" map with suggestions of places to go. Clare and Kevin could not be more accommodating. I've stayed at a number of B&B's, but I must say The Bay Lodge is now my favorite.

Great location in a quiet street, and a comfy, cosy and homely house. The room was immaculate and the breakfasts were absolutely superb. Richard and Sarah are great hosts, very friendly and helpful. If the previous owners Russell and Hazel read this, fear not, The Pendennis is in VERY safe hands. I will be back!
