“The Balnoon Inn B&B, though a little outside St Ives, impressed me with its genuine, family-run hospitality. I'm particularly struck by the owners' dedication to their guests, and the promise of updated spaces alongside simple comforts-a solid base for exploring Cornwall. It's a place where personal touches really seem to matter.”

adequate stay
cozy room good location small bathroom strange sink
the rooms were cozy and beds were comfortable. the location was in a good spot, not too far from the beach.
the bathroom was too small, i noticed no shower curtain was present. the sink was not located in the bathroom, it was oddly placed in the bedroom area.

Charming Stay Near the Coast
friendly owners early check-in great view comfy bed
The owners gave a friendly welcome, and I asked to check in early because I was attending a wedding nearby. The room was ready, GREAT!!! The view had something special about it. The bed really ensured a comfy night.
The cupboard-style bathroom was quite small and maybe not adequate for some guests.

wonderful host and clean rooms
friendly staff dog beach town centre
the location was fantastic, not far from town centre. the staff are very friendly. the beaches were dog friendly and very clean.
when you arrive you park in A unsecure car park to heavy used road, yes it's got a gate but easily accessible. all the rooms are what i'd call the converted attic so it's up two full flights of stairs so if you're not good with stairs not the place for you.
