You can find The Old Rectory in a quiet, romantic setting, ideally located to enjoy the best that Cornwall has to offer. We've created a short video to talk about what you can expect at The Old Rectory and some of the history of the house. Here at The Old Rectory we have four high quality en-suite rooms, the names of which are based on the history of the house.

Super-fast wifi is available throughout the property. We are a Dog Friendly Bed and Breakfast, allowing up to 2 well-behaved dogs in the 'Old Stable' room but no pets in the house. All guests who book directly with us can enjoy a free paper in the morning, and for those staying 3 nights or more, we offer a complimentary laundry service!
