Photo of Boskerris Hotel

“A sophisticated seaside hotel with fabulous views of Carbis Bay. Decor is light, airy, and contemporary with a Mediterranean feel. A large terrace is perfect for a sundowner while breakfasts, high teas, and dinners are a choice of small regularly changing menus. A stylish base for a coastal stay.”

Hotel Review

An interior of stylish creams and pastels reflects the tranquillity of the spectacular panoramic views from this small, recently refurbished hotel and lends it a casual sophistication. Owners Jonathan and Marianne Bassett have created a Cornish seaside feel with white shutters, wooden floors and wicker chairs whilst also managing to inject more than just a hint of the Mediterranean. Wander down to Carbis Bay below; take the three minute train from around the corner into town; relax with a glass of wine on the terrace and glimpse the lighthouse that inspired Virginia Woolf.
