    Have a queen bed so found the double bed restricting, but the bed and pillows were very comfortable so we could not complain and slept well.

    Lovely clean accommodation in a quiet location, just outside St Ives. We did not bring our cars but were able to travel by bus everywhere. Bus stop just across the road, Heidi and Pete were very accommodating and updated us with any information we needed about the area. They provided a good, reasonable priced breakfast at the time we required. They were very efficient and breakfast was served when we arrived in the breakfast room. Lovely clean room and en-suite shower room.

    Heidi was a delight! Welcomed us and provided ongoing smiles and support during our stay. Excellent location; a lovely walk into St. Ives or a bus stop 50m from the door. Breakfast was excellent, generous and very reasonably priced. Our room was comfortable but small.

    Heidi and Pete were so welcoming. Rooms a nice size and very clean. Breakfast was delicious 😋 About 10-15 minute walk downhill into St Ives, with regular buses back up. Sennen cove is definitely worth visiting.

    A little far from St Ives but still walkable if you are fit. There is public transport available or drive and pay for parking in town.

    Very nice house with beautiful views

    Pete and Heidi have created a very warm and inviting atmosphere at their B&B. I would definitely recommend Chy an Gwedhen for its cleanliness, location and overall comfort.

    there was nothing we did not like, my wife likes a bath but we understand that not many can supply baths due to space

    the hospitality was second to none, and the atmosphere was always happy and joyful, their knowledge of the area was exceptional and also the other residents was a joy to stay with, the room and bathroom was spotless and smelt lovely, the food was always hot and correct, location was excellent

    Such a gem of a place. Heidi and Pete could not be more accommodating. Our room was immaculate and the view was stunning which was such a lovely surprise. Lots of lovely little details, such as an honesty bar and lots of information if you need it. We walked to St Ives along the coast which was beautiful (some pictures added).

    Breakfast was lovely. Well presented and cooked perfectly. The room was nice and clean. Unlimited tea provided. The hosts were very welcoming and helpful and the location was perfect, the walk wasn't too far to the main town. There is a pub opposite the B&B, the food was awful. I would recommend you save your money and go elsewhere. Tesco is just a cross the road from the B&B which is handy for snacks.

    Our room was quite small and we didn't have anywhere comfortable to sit apart from the bed. The location of the property was a fair walk into St Ives, however the coastal walk into town was beautiful after long days of walking we were able to catch the bus back up to the property which was a god send. Breakfast was not included in the price, this was an additional option. We did pay extra and have the breakfast, it was reasonably priced and was delicious.

    Our room had a beautiful view of the beach/sea. Very nicely decorated room and spotlessly clean. Hosts were knowledgeable of the local area and were very friendly.

    Lovely room with a great sea view. Nice friendly hosts and lots of delicious veggie options for breakfast. It's about 20 minutes walk into town, which is all downhill. Lots of buses and taxis are available if you don't fancy the walk back.
