This is the best B&B we have ever experienced. We stayed for one night on our way down to Land’s End Airport on our way to the Scillies, and again on our way back, also for one night. Our return flight was cancelled due to poor visibility, meaning we had to take a three-hour boat journey to Penzance instead. By the time we were transported back to the airport to pick up our car, we knew it was going to be a very late arrival at Lobhill. We texted Jane, the owner, to let her know, and her kind and calm positive response took away the stress!

The guesthouse is set in glorious grounds and location, and the rooms are a delight, even with Covid ramifications. Jane is so hospitable and she cooked a real farmhouse breakfast in the lovely country kitchen. It was the best food we’d eaten on the whole two-week trip.

When we departed we didn’t get chance to say cheerio, but Jane even texted us to say thanks for staying and hoped to see us again. Top notch hospitality all the way.
