    Everything was thought out to the smallest detail.

    Everything was thought out to the smallest detail. Even such minor things as salt and butter were available. You could just come and relax. My son was very upset when he woke up at home, he wanted to return to this house.

    Penryn was chosen as a central place to stay, whilst visiting the sights we wanted to visit (Lands End, Tintagel, St. Michaels Mount and St. Ives). Therefore we cannot say much about the town itself, as we never visited it.

    A real place with real people, shops and lives in an often spoilt by tourist Cornwall. Some really good pubs (try the Famous Barrell) / brilliant classy fish and chip shop (The Mariners) / cafe with cakes and coffee to die for (Stargazy Cucina) with lots more on the Fal Estuary at the bottom of the hill and lots of buses to Falmouth/Newquay and Truro (much used by students at the local university) - and all in a really interesting and ancient stone town.

    Lovely historic town with interesting buildings.

    Lovely historic town with interesting buildings. Set on the Falmouth estuary. Beautiful scenery and lots of gardens and historic houses to visit. Very good public transport links by bus to Falmouth, Penzance, etc. Free parking. Very friendly locals and students (it's part of the Exeter/Falmouth campus). Two pubs with good food at competitive prices, one of which, the Thirsty Scholar, has this year's Gold Award for pub food in the South West, which is richly deserved.

    It's a very cute little place, not a huge amount to do but it's very close to Falmouth, which has a lot more on offer. The high Street is all up hill so if someone has health or mobility issues, this possibly wouldn't be the most ideal place to go. The best place to stay and eat is The Thirsty Scholar, this place, the food and staff are exceptional! Parking is a bit of a pain, the closest car park is a 3hour max short stay so you need to go to a long stay one, which is an up hill trek to the pub and high street

    Penryn is the poor relation, a small town between Truro and Falmouth and though a bit old fashioned, it is quirky and is worth a visit. It has a long history - longer than Falmouth; it has quite a bit of interest, is on the water and is very conveniently located. I doubt if it's a family holiday base itself, but it is situated close to a huge range of amenities. Worth considering if Falmouth and Truro are too expensive

    The Merchant's House, with its fascinating history, is a wonderful place to stay in Penryn. Excellent central location and private off-street parking is a huge bonus. The house has been beautifully renovated to a modern standard, yet at the same time it retains so many lovely, intriguing features of its past. The rooms and beds were all comfortable, and the bright sky-lit kitchen is a well-equipped delight. The hosts are gracious, very pleasant and helpful, quickly responding to a question that arose.

    The barn is very comfortable and spacious, with a nice outside area and BBQ. It is newly fitted out with quality appliances, and was one point, the home of the owner. More generally, the place is well placed for a hub and spoke touring of south and west Cornwall, meeting our requirements, but not for those that want to a five minute drive to the beach. The host, Chloe was super-helpful and communicative via the messaging service for the duration of our stay.

    Clean, modern, cosy, well-presented room in a separate block behind the pub, so you can come and go without passing through the main building. New shower room, small but nicely fitted out. Comfortable bed and pillows. Nice and quiet, had a great sleep. Wifi worked fine. Pub itself was really pleasant, and good staff. The roast dinner was EXCELLENT. Penryn is small but a nice alternative to Falmouth and Pip's cafe a few doors down did a great breakfast.

    The most amazing and attentive hosts, we really felt welcome. Lovely breakfast served daily, the rooms were spacious enough and clean, with this lovely rustic charm. There are ponies too (outside of course)! Incredible location, so easy to get around Cornwall, whether you're sightseeing or just need to get to the nearby towns, you won't be disappointed. For the price, you won't do any better and you will absolutely love your stay.

    The location was good as I spent the week exploring all, over Cornwall. The room was comfortable but view limited because of sky lights. The breakfast was more than adequate. I was surprised that breakfast was at 9 but that work out all right as I would have my dinner where I had got to each evening. With say an 8 breakfast I'd have problem eaten locally.

    Really lovely to be in the Cornish countryside but only 15 min from Falmouth. The views were beautiful. The Hosts provided everything you would want fir your stay and it really felt like you were staying in a nice warm county home not a run of the mill hotel. The full Cornish breakfast was perfect, and the Hosts were happy to satisfy every requests.

    I have stayed at the Thirsty Scholar many times over the past 18 months & I love it there. The staff are really welcoming & lovely. The rooms are delightful, with the comfiest beds & super showers. The food is all home cooked & the breakfast is outstanding. I have stayed at many other places in the Falmouth area & the ‘Scholar’ is by far the best!

    Brand new facilities, very clean, very secure, lovely friendly pub downstairs. Although no breakfast was served, they left a thoughtful cooler box full of breakfast stuff (cereal bars, porridge etc).Also, coffee, tea, Cornwall hot chocolate in the window sill. I would come back to stay there anytime I come to Penryn.
