Excellent 5*

Tracey and Richard are great hosts. Very friendly, great facilities in the room and Richard’s full English breakfast is absolutely amazing, one, if not the best I have ever had. Car park on site and outside seating with a bar. Would definitely recommend to anyone planning a trip to this area.

Short stay

An amazing b&b. Comfortable bed and lovely bathroom. Everything you need for a perfect stay with a kettle, hairdryer, shampoo, conditioner , soaps and hand and body moisturiser. The tv had extra channels as well. Catch up etc. Breakfast was cooked to order and was lovely. Everywhere was very clean and comfortable. Positioned on a main road there was easy access to st austell, the eden project and the lost gardens of heligan. There us also a pub jyst up the road with super friendly customers. A place to stay to relax and unwind. Vety friendly owners too.

Covid secure and still wonderful!!

We stayed here after restrictions were lifted to allow hotels to open. We’ve stayed before, and knew things would be a bit different to normal. Debbie and Andy have worked really hard to minimise the impact to guests’ experiences whilst ensuring safety for everyone!! Temperatures were taken on arrival, face masks are requested to be worn in the hallways and hand sanitisation stations are in place. It’s different, but if it wasn’t, we’d have been concerned!! Importantly, the rooms are still as comfy as ever (first night’s sleep in a different bed for 4 months and slept like a baby!!), breakfast is still delicious and Andy and Debbie are still wonderful hosts! We were in room 1 - some reviews mentioned a loud macerator in room 1’s bathroom, but this has been upgraded during lockdown. With the bathroom door closed, you can’t hear anything from the bedroom!! This place is also perfect for the Eden Project (10min drive), which is also managing social distancing very effectively with a time slot booking system!

The hosts were lovely, nothing was too much trouble and they had good local knowledge of places to visit or eat. The guest house was spotless and our room was very comfortable. If we visit that area again we will certainly try and get a room at the Chapel Guest House, not just for its central location for places to visit but for the peace of mind that the accommodation will be great.

I don’t know how you would better this !

Just stayed one night and were impressed with the standard of our accommodation. The room (no 3) was well equipped and thought out the on suite was very clean with an excellent shower. Outside of the room the conversion from a chapel had been well executed with spacious and light landings and communal areas resisting the temptation to maximize the number of paying rooms. Finally the breakfast was cooked with the finest ingredients and to perfection. Alan was helpful on local information with out being intrusive.

Great location and lovely hosts

St Austell itself is nothing to write home about but this B&B is ideally located for The Eden Project, the Lost Gardens of Heligan, Charleston and Mevagissey. If you're happy to drive a little further Padstow, Newquay and Fowey are under an hour and we even made the Minack Theatre in under two hours. The room was very good with a comfy bed and spotlessly clean. Good choice of breakfast and nothing was too much trouble for the hosts.

Great BnB with friendly owners and fab breakfast!

The Old Chapel BnB was fantastic, owners and hosts Andy and Debs are friendly without being intrusive. Lots of helpful information about local attractions, offering loan of guidebooks to save purchase. Very clean and comfortable rooms with tea, coffee and got chocolate sachets in room. Plenty of wardrobe and drawer space for stays longer than a weekend - we were there for 6 nights. Good selection of breakfasts all cooked extremely well and good sized portions. Being an older building you do hear noise occasionally from other rooms but this is to be expected and reminds you to also respect your neighbours! All in all a lovely BnB to which we will most definitely return.
