Guest ratings and detailed reviews

Feedback about The Old Coach House from previous guests about their experience.

Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Guests consistently praise the excellent breakfast, often served in a delightful conservatory. The self-catering cottage option is appreciated for its well-equipped kitchen with a dishwasher and good-sized bedroom, although some taller guests have noted the low ceiling. The location is ideal for exploring Cornwall, with Boscastle harbour a short walk away; a very nice pub is nearby, but a few guests found some rooms, like the Minster room, somewhat small.

an adequate experience

ample portions excellent host faded quilt pine furniture

i appreciated the breakfast. it provided a great choice of options and ample portions. also, jackie is an excellent host. she ensured i felt welcome and was always available to help with any requests.

the minster room was somewhat small. i noticed the floral curtains had faded quilt covers, along with pine furniture and artificial flowers. the tv in the corner wasn't working, a shame.
