Guests say

Chyventon is a beautifully furnished lodge in Falmouth, Cornwall, praised for its comfy beds, cosy wood-burning stove, and well-equipped kitchen. Guests enjoyed the relaxing sound of the nearby stream and the property's proximity to the town. The garden and cabin add charm, though the garden may not suit young children. It's an ideal base for exploring Cornwall, perfect for family gatherings and romantic occasions.

There is no specific mention of cleanliness in the reviews, so it is not possible to provide a score for this category.

The location is highly praised for its proximity to Falmouth town and ease of access to local amenities, including a nearby pub and railway station. One review mentioned the location wasn't great for them, but this seems to be an exception.

Guests consistently mention the comfortable beds and cosy atmosphere of the lodge, highlighting the wood-burning stove and the relaxing sound of the stream as particularly enjoyable aspects.

The lodge is described as well-equipped and thoughtfully furnished, with a superbly equipped kitchen and plenty of space. One review suggests it may need a refresh, indicating minor room for improvement.

The provision of dishwasher tablets, cling film, and a chilled bottle of bubbly on arrival were appreciated touches. However, as gifts are not guaranteed, future guests should be aware that such thoughtful gestures may vary.

      A really lovely cottage, beautifully decorated throughout and lots of space for 8 people, Lovely outside space. Perfect for a family gathering. We really enjoyed our time at Chyventon and were sad to leave.

    • Mr Dixon

      Fantastic place. Location gives easy access to everything. The garden outside is huge and great fun to explore. Beds comfortable and kitchen is superbly equipped. Enough space to gather or to all have your own space. Had a really great time.

    • Mrs Hines

      Chyventon is a gorgeous and high quality house with everything you might need thought of in a perfect location close to beautiful Falmouth. We went as a whole family and was made even more special by the fact my daughter and her partner got engaged on Gyllyngvase beach during our trip. So the house was the perfect backdrop to celebrate afterwards.Very comfy beds, lovely garden and the cabin was so romantic for my daughter and her new fiancé
