Venton Vean

We had a great stay here, from the moment arrived we were superbly looked after by the owners. Nothing was too much trouble, and their recommendations for dining out were spot on. The breakfasts were all excellent, including homemade jams and great coffee. The house has been stylishly renovated throughout. Our room (#1) was light and airy, and extremely comfortable. It is in a great location, in a quiet part of town. We easily parked directly outside. In the evenings we walked to the town and seafront where there were numerous restaurants and cafes. Highly recommended. We will be back

Great neighbourhood, beautiful house and garden; inside is where the action is! The tonal colour palettes of the walls, floor coverings, furniture, and accessories are spot on - interesting to view as the light moves during the day. Wonderful photographs and prints decorate the walls in the bedrooms and throughout. Then there's Philippa! Super helpful, knowledgeable, attentive and a gifted conversationalist. Not so visible is David, but he confirms the visit as a ten out of ten experience. Busy in the kitchen - home made granola, home made jams and marmalades and The Mexican Breakfast - wow!

Perfect stay. A fabulous B&B but with the exceptional personal service and facilities of a hotel costing at least double the price. Stunning house, gorgeous bedroom and imaginative choice of yummy breakfasts – which are freshly cooked to order. You can really feel how passionate the owners, Philippa and David, are about what they do. From the warm friendly welcome and inspirational decor to the unexcepted treat of homemade biscuits. And nothing was too much trouble. We left (though it was hard to say goodbye) feeling so well taken care of and can't wait to go back.

A very warm greeting to a fresh, attractively modernised house in a lovely part of Penzance. We loved our glamorous room, which had everything we needed, and hugely enjoyed the excellent breakfasts. Buzzy, contemporary art around the house completed our enjoyment. We look forward to returning, as well as renewing our acquaintance with Phillipa, a humorous, jolly hostess who couldn't have done more to make us comfortable and welcome.

I love this place so much. In the last five years 2012-17 I must have stayed here dozens of times. I could rave about the rooms, the breakfasts, the owners and the ambience. But to keep it brief, I'll just say two things. Venton Vean is the best sleep you'll ever have and Venton Vean smells like your favourite person. Sounds crazy but it's true. All I can say is see for yourself.
