Nothing to dislike

Amazing location right on the harbour. Breakfast selections are really good and fresh. Claire and her staff go above and beyond to accommodate any requirements. My third time staying at the house on the props and I wouldn’t stay anywhere else in Polperro.

Nothing to dislike but people need to be aware of stairs to and from room.

Breakfast was very good. The bedroom very comfortable, clean, beautifully furnished and warm. Location was brilliant with lovely views from window.

Parking in a cash only car park, with no other real option. (Not the fault of the property though!)

Really amazingly friendly staff Lovely breakfast

Everything especially the location the best view in the village ad you sit on the window seat looking out at the harbor loved every changing minute!! Great food & friendly, staff, and customer service!! I was not feeling well for a couple days and they brought my dinner up to my room my option five stars all the way around!! Plus the history of the building & in the dining room feels like you’re on a pirate ship!!

The locations and view of the harbour from our room were exceptional. The room itself was very good and very clean, a little small but was to be expected from an old building.

Necessary I am sure but the fire escape green glow was a overpowering in the bed room!

Parking was inconvenient. The car park is 750m away and cost £15 a day or £40 for a week in £1 coins (the meters didn't take cards or mobile payments). It is possible to take your car as far as the turning circle to drop of cases and then return to the car park, but we only found this after our stay!

The House on the Props is a first rate B&B. We had The Props room which was small but very comfortable with spectacular views of the harbour. As well as breakfast the restaurant also offered meals during the day and dinner in the evening. The dinner we had there was the best we had in Cornwall.

I have nothing to negative to say about my 2 night stay which was excellent.

What a delightful place to stay, close by the harbour in the heart of pretty Polperro. Claire and her team were so hospitable and helpful and served up a delicious breakfast of which there was a good choice.

We had a lovely welcome from Claire. Our room was spotless, cosy, very comfortabel too. Breakfast was lst class and staff very polite and pleasant nothing was too much trouble. We were lucky the weather was kind to us. Polperro is a very nice place to have a break with nice little shops and good food in local pubs. We will definitely be visiting again. Thank you Polperro.

What a wonderful location! Right in the middle of all the village action, so close, you could smell the sea air and hear the seagulls. Easy walking distance to all the restaurants and the trails. Tidy with a nice breakfast and helpful staff. My only complaints are that the toilet was very hard to use. To the point that it induced anxiety. Would it flush this time or not? Also the bed was hard and there was a bright exit light in my room, the kind that point the way to the stairs in the event of an emergency. But it was so bright that it turned the entire room a neon green, and I couldn’t figure out how to dim it and no one in the hotel helped me. So I barely slept at all. They said it was there by law but I’ve never had such a bright light in my room anywhere else…Otherwise it would’ve been a solid experience.

Leaving ☹️

A most beautiful location and excellent friendly staff. We had a room looking over the stunning harbour. Breakfast, lunch and dinner meals absolutely first class, quality, service and staff second to none. A lovely experience highly recommend.

Having to leave and come home

If you are looking for the perfect little B&B, then you have just found the place. The House on the Props is a little gem, not just located within Polperro, but in the most perfect of spots in the village. The food was fabulous. The breakfast menu was better than some 5* hotels I’ve stayed in around the world. The room was so clean and homely. I mean it actually felt like being at home, it was that comfortable. The bed was lovely, I slept so well that I didn’t want to get up. The room was also so well equipped. The staff couldn’t of been any kinder or lovely. They are so interested in their guests in away I’ve never seen before anywhere. When you walk out of the door into the beautiful street, you are in the location of the gorgeous little harbour, the lovely old Cornish gift shops, bakeries and the famous old Cornish pubs, some have fabulous live music to round off your evenings. The Blue Peter was my favourite. You are close to the stunning cliff walks and the beach. Trust me, don’t bother looking at any other properties, because The House on the Props is the one you have been looking for in your search. A fabulous little gem, a jewel within the jewel of Polperro, with staff that sparkle in service to the guests. I can’t wait to go back!
