I don't normally leave reviews but this was worth a decent review. Booked late on the day of arrival & they were 100% ready for my arrival. My room was clean, modern, bed was comfortable & the shower was good. Food was superb (I'd definitely recommend the King Prawn & Crab linguine) & breakfast was equally as good. Most importantly the staff were so pleasant (apologies I didn't catch anyone's name). Next time I'm in the area this will be the first place I look for.

Had a nice stay at the Thirsty Scholar after the hassle of gettng into the property and the parking. Your website said we could get in at 2.30 but couldn't get in until 4.00, although the owner did arrange for someone to come and let us in. Free parking your website states, there is no parking for the pub which again was a hassle for us as the Council carpark was quite a way with steep hills.

The B&B is well located and the food is superb. Due to its location and the demand for the rooms, it is a bit pricey but I guess is all down to supply/demand factors rather than any other thing. Anyway, I would stay there again if I could.

Lovely find, just a short way out of Falmouth.
If you stay here then we’d recommend eating here as well. Food choices in the town are limited but don’t worry the food in the pub is excellent.

Note parking is off-premises, but there are public car park(s) within walking distance with free overnight parking. The staff kindly gave up their own car park place for me when I turned up as a late (indeed, last minute) arrival. Excellent service throughout. Enjoyed the food, too.
