    There was absolutely nothing I did not like about our stay.

    A beautiful cottage in rural Cornwall, comfortable beds and just a few miles from Perranporth. A real find- we will definitely be back. Breakfast was fantastic too, and Jenny and her husband were the most perfect, friendly hosts you could wish for.

    The only downside was that we could not stay for a much longer period.

    The breakfast was very good made from mostly local produce presented and cooked to perfection. The accomodation and toilet facilities were excellent. It was a very quiet and peaceful location and we had a good nights sleep. The surrounding gardens were very nice and the parking was off road and secure.

    Breakfast was great. I could choose what I want to eat from a list every day. House owner was very kind and friendly. She often asked us if we need anything so we didn’t face any inconvenience during our stay. I also loved every features in the house like furniture and a fireplace. It’s lovely traditional English house! When we come back to Cornwall we’d love to stay this place again.

    The property has everything we needed for our short stay in Cornwall. Jenny couldn’t have made us feel more welcome. She cooked a superb breakfast in the morning, was lovely to chat to and gave us a very kind leaving bag of drinks and snacks for our journey home. The property has great off road parking and is just a short journey into St Agnes. Would definitely stay here again

    St. Agnes taxis (don't get me started)!

    After a highly inauspicious start involving a torrential downpour, an hour long bus journey from Truro (roadworks on the A30), Jen missing her choir practice, a bag left in the porch of the church and St.Agnes taxis failing to turn up on two occasions things improved as quickly as the weather. Jen was a perfect host who cooked a great breakfast and kindly drove us to and from the village on two occasions. We stayed in the twin room: comfortable beds & good wifi. The house is situated an 8 minute drive from St.Agnes and is ideal for people who like rural calm with a bus stop at the end of the road with direct services to Falmouth, Truro, Perranporth and Newquay. The Miners arms pub in the village serves superb food and there were at least 5 other good dinning options in the town. The south west coastal path and beach is a half hour indirect walk away.

    That we had just a short stay :)

    Jenny was a perfect host. We felt very welcome and comfortable from the first second we entered the B&B. We loved the familiar atmosphere with just one guest room and the warm and inspiring chats with Jenny. Nearby is maybe is one of the best pubs with great food which we had during our journey through Cornwall. Do not miss it!

    For us the location was not ideal, since we were walking the coast path and Mithian is quite a distance from the coast. But we knew that beforehand, just to be aware :)

    A true Hidden Gem. Go there.

    Nothing. (Quick note for Jenny. You told us on arrival that you had left a message on my answer phone. Sorry, Don't know who you rang but nothing on my answer phone. Regardless, thanks for a lovely stay.)

    The term 'hidden gems' is thrown about, especially in touristy areas like Cornwall. Mellowvean however is exactly that. Tucked away down a distant lane is a beautiful property set in beautifully kept grounds. With a very limited amount of guest accommodation it means that the each and every guest gets the personal treatment leading to a wonderful stay in a very pleasant room with comfortable beds. The individually personalised breakfasts were lovely and the little snack bag on departure was a wonderful bonus. I am very happy to say - this property is highly recommended.
