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!
