The Experience
Everything at Venton Vean is tip-top. Immensely helpful owners Philippa and David moved from London with their family and have transformed a dilapidated Victorian house into a supremely cool and elegant B&B. Moody colours, mid-century design classics and interesting reclamation finds make for a stunning and eclectic interior. Food is a passion – expect freshly ground coffee in your room and some of the most tantalising breakfasts around: Mexican, Spanish, even a good old full English will have you dashing down in the morning. Arty Penzance is a joy as is the craggy-coved beauty all around.

Super BnB, very cozy and warm with lovely comfortable bed and immaculately clean room and en suite. Very welcoming host and yummy breakfast. In great position in Penzance for sea, town, Newlyn and restaurants. Hope to return!

Venton Vean is an exceptionally comfortable and stylish B&B. Much care and attention to detail has gone into the furnishings and decor. My room and bed were extremely comfortable and spacious with very high quality bedding. Philippa made me very welcome and the breakfasts are the best I've ever had. I can highly recommend the homemade bircher. The location is excellent; right opposite Penlee Park, close to the town and seafront.

Beautiful quite location with a beautiful park opposite that takes you on a ten minute walk to Penzance. It’s five minutes from the sea and a wonderful 15 minute walk on the front to Newlyn. A very warm welcome from Phillipa who also served us breakfast each morning with lots of choices from Mexican, Spanish and English breakfasts, yogurts and fruits. Our room was fresh, with wonderful bed linen and lovely plump pillows with protectors. En-suite quite small but came with towels and local toiletries. It was quite a drive from Yorkshire but we would must definitely stay again.

A wonderful residential and stylish location, just opposite the park that leads you through to regency mews and the eclectic boutique area of Chapel Street. Venton Vean exceeded our expectations; from the quality of the bedlinen to the tasteful delight of every aspect of the breakfast. Not just any breakfast, a Venton Vean breakfast, with the focus on the best tastes each food could offer; homemade jams and granola, perfectly sweet red tomatoes, quality ingredients whether it was the bacon, breads or ripe avocados or figs. No corners were cut to substitute for 2nd best. Perfect. Thank you.

I've just returned from 4 days staying at Venton Vean. It is an exceptional B and B, the care an attention given by Philippa and David to enjoy your stay is first class. A delicious breakfast awaits each morning, indeed there is an interesting variety of breakfasts available such is their culinary abilities. Philippa was most helpful with local information so that Penzance could be properly explored.
