Arches B&B

Small business, big heart! We had a warm welcome from Nichola and Merlin (German Shepherd). The room was clean and well presented. Bed linen and mattress luxurious. Gourmet breakfast cooked fresh; warm granary bread; perfect poached eggs! My two dachsunds were off lead in one second and made to feel as at home as we were. A few steps from a lovely woodland path, and a few minutes from Menacuddle well and druids chair. All round, a perfect place. Thank you Nichola and Merlin, from Clare, Denise (Bruno and Perkins)

This wonderful home from home Bed and Breakfast was Perfect . Nikki pulls out every stop to make your stay perfect, even upgraded us to the green room with the four poster bed for free, made our weekend more magical. Nikki is a fantastic cook and the breakfast was so scrummy. Her poached eggs are perfect and the warm bread goes with out saying. Merlin completes this wonderful BandB and is so well behaved and amazing manners. Thank you so much Nikki, we will definitely be back. Lisa and Frankie xxx

Stayed for new year and had a wonderful time. Nicki and Merlin were amazing as always. Green room was lovely and comfortable and breakfast was to die for. We will be back in September 2024 and can't wait.

A lovely stay in a comfortable room and comfy bed within a historic home. I stayed in the Green Room with an ensuite and a four poster bed! The host, Nicki, is wonderfully accommodating and her dog is good natured. The B&B itself is well-located close to St. Austell town centre, the station and walking trails to the likes of the Eden Project. Unfortunately, as a consequence it is a bit noisy being close to a main road, but that can't be helped. The breakfast was tasty too and good value for money (£7.50) if you don't book it in advance.

A very warm and cozy base for my weekend in Cornwall. Nikki was very welcoming and friendly and Merlin (the German Shepherd) is just the most adorable and big softie ever. The room was quirky and the furniture was all antique, which added to the quirkyness. Pleasantly surprised that I had a small fridge plus all the usual amenities for tea and coffee etc. The breakfast was lovely and for me just the right portion size and fuel for my half marathon at the Eden Project. St Austell is a 5 minute walk away and was suitable for my needs for food in the evening. Would definitely stay here again

Great place to stay and perfectly placed for touring the area. Nikki and Merlin, her very friendly German Shepherd, made our stay a real pleasure and we felt welcomed and very much at home Very clean and comfortable , great room and spot on breakfast. Even a pot of tea and home made scones when we came back after our day out. Definitely will go back again. Thanks Nikki.
