This is a family-run hotel with extraordinary service and unbelievable breakfasts. Their homemade granola alone is worth the trip. They bake it for six hours and add dates, apricots, and figs. The hillside view over the bay is spectacular. Our breakfast was interrupted by a cry of "dolphins!" as everyone rushed to the deck to the watch a pod cavorting in front of us. The desk provides guests with the owner's spot-on picks for best restaurants in the area and best sights. The hotel is convenient, too. Just below the hotel is a stop for the quick train trip into St. Ives. It runs every half-hour or so and costs a pound.

Thank you for your wonderful review, Annie's muesli is indeed delicious and we pride ourselves on local, fresh produce. We're delighted you got to see the dolphins, it's always very special when they make an appearance in the bay, for our guests and staff alike. kindest regards Sam and all at Boskerris

This place was not cheap (not that very much is around St. Ives), but it was worth it. The property is beautiful., and has an outdoor terrace (with bar and food service) on the back overlooking the bay. Service was top-notch. The breakfast was fantastic. It's about a 40-minute walk (with a fair bit of climing and descending going each way) to St. Ives, but we needed it to work off the breakfast. I highly recommend this place as a romantic getaway!

A fabulous boutique hotel with the most amazing views across the Bay. The staff are all fabulous and so helpful. Breakfast was really good and it is so nice to sit outside on the comfy sofas watching the sun go down. You can walk to restaurants or catch the train (5 min walk) into St Ives. The hotel owner provides advice on what to go and see - we saw places which we would never have known existed - absolutely fabulous :)

May bank holiday stay
Fantastic stay at the Boskerris Boutique hotel over May Bank holiday. The service was akin to a 5* hotel from the get go, above and beyond while being authentically friendly. Great views, fantastic breakfast and an extremely quite and comfortable room and bed. Would not hesitate to stay there again. Thanks for making our scoop down to St. Ives a memorable one.

Der Gast ist Kaiser, aber zu schmale Betten
Ein wunderbares kleines Boutique-Hotel, hoch am Hang gelegen mit schönem Blick aufs Meer. So etwas findet man in Cornwall sicherlich nicht so oft. Wir haben kaum jemals ein Hotel erlebt, in dem die Gäste so im Vordergrund stehen und zuvorkommend verwöhnt werden. Wunderbarer Ausblick und auch parken kann man im Hpf sehr gut. Mit der 200 m entfernt gelegenen kleinen Bahn kann man innerhalb von 10 Minuten für 2 € sehr schnell und bequem an der Küste entlang nach St. Ives fahren. Einen kleinen Wermutstropfen gibt es jedoch: unser Doppelbett war nur 1,40 m breit und das ist für uns alles andere als ausreichend gewesen. In einem Hotel dieser Preisklasse sollte man mindestens 1,60 m breite Betten anbieten.

Dear Gard, Hello there - thank you for your kind review, we're delighted you enjoyed your stay with us. We're sorry the king size bed in your room did not meet with your expectations. We do have superior rooms and two classic rooms which have Super-king size beds, should you decide to visit us again. kindest regards Sam Hailey Boskerris Hotel
