We stayed here for 1 night only during a road trip but wish it could have been many more. Max and Debs were superb hosts and the facilities were immaculate with every detail carefully considered. The breakfast was excellent using locally sourced product. Very highly recommended.

Had a fantastic stay here. The welcome was so friendly and was shown to our room which was very clean and well presented. Loved the black 'make-up' towel, nice touch. Comfy bed and black out curtains. Could not fault it. Communial areas also very clean and homely. The breakfast in the morning was such a treat! Again the service was brillient and food tasted amazing. Couldn't want for anything. If we were holidaying again in the area would definitely stay again. Can't recommend enough.

Amazing
Just returned from a 3 night stay at the Old Embassy House. Deb and Max are the perfect hosts and the standard of service and accommodation is better than some 4 *and 5 * hotels we have stayed in! Don't hesitate, just book it, you certainly won't be disappointed

Lovely B&B in a great Cornish Town
Fabulous stay. Max and Debs are extremely hospitable. Max called to say our room and parking space was ready earlier than expected. Rooms are lovely. Breakfast is one of the best I have had in a UK B&B. Plentiful and very tasty. Will definitely stay again.
