The location is perfect. Our room was very clean and comfy, with a view on the harbour. The owner, and the staff are very friendly and helpful. The atmosphere was very homely. The breakfast was super, and many locals choose the place for meeting in the morning. A local painter, Mark, offers very good on demand painting courses coupled with your stay at the House on the Props. It was a full immersion in the real Cornish life. We would recommend it highly, if you are looking for a genuine experience.
