What was a fantastic holiday at Borthalan. It is cosy guest house. Perfect location, 5 minutes by walk the Corbis bay train station to go St Ives or St Erth. Room was very clean and tidy. Breakfast was amazing with Margret and Martin daily chat. Thanks for everything, it was a pleasant stay for us.

We had a fantastic 7 night stay at Borthalan House in Carbis Bay and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it. The location is excellent, with the beautiful Carbis Bay beach just a 5-minute walk away. The crystal-clear water and stunning scenery made it the perfect place to relax. The nearby train station is also only a short walk away, making it incredibly easy to visit St Ives without the hassle of driving or parking. Margaret and Martin were exceptional hosts from start to finish. They were warm, welcoming, and always happy to help, offering excellent local recommendations and sharing their knowledge of the area, which really helped us make the most of our holiday. Each morning started with a delicious freshly cooked fried breakfast, which set us up perfectly for a day of exploring Cornwall. Overall, Borthalan House offered us a great combination of comfortable accommodation, a superb location, outstanding hospitality, and an excellent breakfast. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would happily return in the future.

Wow what can I say… we loved staying at Borthalan House. The location is perfect for St Ives with train station only a few minutes away and easy routes to beautiful places such as St Michael’s Mount and Minack Theatre. What made our stay extra special was Margaret and Martin who really looked after us. Margaret’s breakfast was delicious and Martin’s humour gives us a good kickstart to the day. Borthalan House was really cosy and the room we stayed in had lovely sea views. We will miss our daily chats with Margaret and Martin and if we return to Cornwall, we will be staying there again!

We loved our stay at Borthalan House Bayview room, and our hosts Martin and Margret were lovely!

This was a great stay in a perfect location. Lovely room with a sea view,with everything you would need for a three night stay. The cooked breakfast was excellent, and the hosts Margaret and Martin were superb.

We were met with a really warm greeting from our hosts. They really made our stay, very knowledgeable about the local area and couldn't do enough to help. We had a good choice for breakfast which was freshly cooked and delicious. We stayed in Cozy Cove which is a lovely little double room with a fabulous view of the bay. Lots of thoughtful little touches like usb sockets, lots of plugs and coathangers. Everywhere was spotless and very homely. We did see previous reviews about the bathroom being small. It's not massive but it is really fresh looking and we didn't have any issues at all (and we're not skinny). Excellent location and parking on site. We'd definitely come back.

The Borthalan Hotel was amazing from the friendly and extremely helpful owners to the beautiful facilities and view. The owners provided all that we needed to get into St Ives and to walk around the local Carbis Bay Area - this made the visit that much more enjoyable. There is plenty of parking if you are driving to the Borthalan - which was a huge plus. The Breakfast was absolutely wonderful and they met all of my wife’s gluten allergy needs. We will absolutely visit again.

Our stay was great and our hosts Martin and Margaret were superb.Borthalan Hotel was very comfortable, clean and quiet. The breakfasts were fabulous and we would definitely like to stay there again.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Borthalan Hotel. Room was lovely, comfy bed, with a great shower in bathroom. Area was quiet with great walks to beach and St.Ives. Train station close by if you dont feel like walking. Breakfast was superb and our hosts Margaret and Martin were perfect. Hoping to return very soon.

Exceptional hospitality and stay! One of the best B&Bs ever! Very clean, comfy bed, soft linen..loved the large shower in our room and the sea view! Great location with a short walk to the beach and the train station. Martin & Margaret's hospitality and welcome made our stay even more special! The house and gardens are beautiful and so well kept and maintained! We will definitely be visiting again!

Easter weekend away, Thursday to Monday. It was a fantastic stay with great hosts. Nothing was too much trouble, and breakfast was terrific. Location perfect train into St Ives 3 min walk, or you could walk into st Ives around 20 min a nice walk as well

The hosts were very knowledgeable about the area and gave very good feedback on local areas of interest and good restaurants

Really good hosts very good relaxing break enjoyed all aspects the stay very good

I don’t often leave reviews which is an indicator of how good this was. The weather and company was excellent which is always going to help but this is a great place to stay. Run like clock work- clean, great location, good facilities throughout, excellent shower and breakfast and hosts who make you feel at home and care for your every need. I would certainly return and recommend to friends and family.

Fabulous hosts with excellent breakfast in a great location

The people their management. Friendly, helpful, always polite, full of life and entertaining. We will come back!

Margaret and Martin are lovely people who made us feel more than welcome. Our room had a wonderful sea view and was well equipped. I would say that Hotels.com has titiled the Borthalan as a hotel but I personally think it is a B&B - but a lovely one.

Spotlessly clean top class room excellent breakfast Hosts were attentive and helpful Free parking which is always a bonus would definitely stay there again.Highly highly recommend

Lovely place and lovely people made us feel at home amazing 🙏
