We loved every bit of our stay at Pensalda Guest House over this long weekend. Our room was spotless really, so neat and clean, with a partial sea view and we had a delicious breakfast everyday, included in our package. Karen was so friendly and welcoming, always carrying a smile and she made sure our stay was nothing less than being at home! It is at an excellent location to the town centre and so nearby to the beach. We will definitely be back and will be recommending to our family and friends visiting. We would highly recommend the stay here :) Thank you Karen.

Friendly and welcoming

Located on the outskirts of Newquay, this guest house is an ideal base from which to explore the North Atlantic coast of Cornwall. Karen and her son are very welcoming and friendly and put you at your ease immediately on arrival. We stayed in one of the two garden rooms which - although somewhat dated in style - are comfortable and have all you need for a pleasant stay. The garden area itself is lovely and is especially enchanting in the evening under the glow of the lights and the pond. We elected to have Karen's full English breakfasts at extra cost although the simple continental style offering might be sufficient for some people. The full English version got full marks from us and set us up nicely for a day of exploring. The Pensalda is situated in a residential area so - other than a pub - there is not much choice if you just want to walk to a venue for dinner rather than drive into Newquay, although we were lucky to find that the Pine Lodge Hotel opposite the Pensalda had just started offering meals for non-residents. We ate there on both nights of our stay and the food and service were excellent. All in all we very much enjoyed our stay at the Pensalda and would be happy to return.
