This award-winning boutique guest house is situated in the heart of the Cornish countryside, just 3 miles from the beach. You can enjoy fresh breakfast each morning and scenic walks in the surrounding area.

The location is perfect, secluded but close to harbour village Mevagissey. The hosts Mike and Janie couldn’t have been more welcoming, engaging and friendly. The cooked breakfasts in the morning were the perfect way to start the day and visit with the other guests. Absolutely stunning place for a getaway.

    Merlin runs a lovely little guesthouse; very friendly and welcoming. My bed was really comfortable, the bathroom a decent size and the fridge in the room was most useful. Being in the Blue Room, I had bird feeders on the window and plenty of bird food to fill them with; a nice touch. Nikki (Merlin's mom) is a great host, warm and down-to-earth. She also makes rather good poached eggs! It's relaxed, easy and unpretentious - and I really enjoyed my stay.

    Really comfortable room with french doors opening onto a lovely garden with chairs, fountain, etc. Large bed, very good shower, clean and quiet. Parking was off the main road and secure. The hosts were very friendly and couldn't have been more helpful. Although it was booked as a room only, they now provide a wonderful continental style breakfast with lots of cereals, fresh fruit, toast, coffee, tea, etc. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely go back if in the area again.

    Breakfast was excellent. The land lady who cooked for us was also a great host and really helpful. It's a great location for the Eden Project and only 15 minutes to Charlestown. Really close to the A30 too. Kettle, and ingredients for hot drinks. A great price for basic B&B.

    Superb, beautifully decorated and comfortable guesthouse with friendly and helpful hosts. A great location for visiting the Eden Project, St, Austell and The Lost Gardens of Heligan. Fantastic breakfast with various options and combinations which you pre order the night before. There is a beautiful decked garden area with seating and a small bar for warm nights. Our room overlooked the stables up the hill so we could see the horses. Would definitely visit again if in that area and will highly recommend to friends and family.
