Abbey Stables - Romantic art inspired hideaway in old harbour area

We are pleased Lesleigh & Laurance found Abbey Stables to be a great place to explore the delights of West Cornwall. Whilst Penzance does not pretend to be London, Oxford or Bath, it does have its own discrete charm, with Regency, Art Deco and traditional granite buildings. It radiates the authentic feel of a Cornish maritime town, with the seafront, art galleries and great restaurants lying within easy walking distance.

We are so glad that you enjoyed your stay at Abbey Stables. The location is perfect for accessing the harbour, bus and train station and shops, yet everyone always comments how peaceful it is. Thanks for staying!

We are pleased Jo had a good holiday, despite the pouring rain, that seems to have complicated her arrival. Also that she found the cottage was well equipped. Parking is at a premium in Penzance and St Ives and people do need to be confident about manoevering in confined spaces. However 95% of our guests have had no problem with a Golf sized car. Unfortunately it appears she overlooked the rubbish and recycling instructions in the cottage welcome pack and indeed the location of the key safe, which was fixed with a phone call on arrival

We are pleased Steve & his wife enjoyed a "good stay" and found the courtyard quiet and the proximity to all facilities "amazing" and awarded Abbey Stables 5 stars. The internet download speed is good , but not the upload. We are presently changing internet suppliers to fix this. The hot water flow has been limited by the freezing water supply during winter and will now go up as temperatures rise. All the main windows have been checked and these can now be opened. We are fortunate to have parking, a rare commodity in Cornwall, especially urban areas, however it is important to adhere to the parking width limitation ( Golf sized or smaller), which Steve unfortunately did not, which made the parking more challenging..
