We had a very pleasant 4 night stay in the heart of rural Cornwall. Although this was a little off the beaten track, it
Pros:

A very quirky ancient building (dating from 1200’s) and garden rooms in a very pretty setting. We had a garden room which had a lovely view of the garden. Also it was quiet

Cons:

The bed wasn’t particularly comfortable. The shower pressure was very low.

Really good stay and we’ll be back
Pros:

Beautifully appointed rooms. Very clean and great decor. The milk delivered to your room in the morning is a lovely touch. The garden was brilliant. Beautifully maintained. It’s very, very good value

Cons:

Meal in the evening was ok - desert not so great but ham egg and chips lovely! - and whilst service overall was good (the owner very attentive and personable) one of the waitresses needed a touch of training.

Lovely location and nice place to stay. Very helpful owner
Pros:

Friendly staff, a lovely quiet room overlooking the garden. Excellent bedside lighting (I read a lot!). Comfortable bed and good toiletries. The breakfast was a continental, with croissants, cereal, yogurt etc. We paid a small sum extra and got an outstanding cooked breakfast

Cons:

We opted to have the pub evening meal which was very disappointing.
I would like to see decaf options, biscuits to be provided (we had travelled over 5 hours to get to Cornwall) and the kettle was in a very strange place - which could have been sorted with a short extension cable. The wifi code was in the pub - it would have been good to have this somewhere in the room.

brief but would happily return
Pros:

Room was spotlessly clean and well appointed, continental breakfast was good, perhaps a little disappointing that cooked breakfast was extra. Wifi was only just able to reach some parts of the room but was fine sat in the chair by the window.

Cons:

There was nothing I would say I didnt like

Best Bed and Breakfast
Pros:

Our stay at The Crown Inn was cozy, comfy, and surpassed expectations. From a friendly welcome to one of the best Full English Breakfasts we've had, we will definitely come again. The owner, Tim, was very helpful and had arranged for taxi's to take a group if us to the Eden Sessions that were on at night. Thanks Tim and the team for a wonderful stay!
