Sancreed House, a 5-star B&B in Penzance, is a beautifully restored Georgian rectory from the 1820s, offering a peaceful retreat for adults seeking rest and comfort. Set within 1.5 acres of landscaped gardens beside the historic 13th-century Sancreed Parish Church, its tranquil charm is enhanced by the gentle toll of Sunday bells. Guests can choose from four elegant en-suite rooms or three self-catering garden cottages, each designed for relaxation. Rooms feature complimentary Wi-Fi, flat-screen TVs, mini-fridges, tea and coffee facilities, and modern bathrooms with cruelty-free toiletries, plush towels, robes, and slippers. Start your day with a home-cooked breakfast in the dining room overlooking the gardens, with choices including fresh fruit, cheeses, pastries, pancakes, waffles, eggs, and a vegetarian full English—most prepared on-site using local ingredients. For deeper relaxation, unwind by the heated pool*, enjoy the garden-view sauna, or soak in an outdoor log-heated bath.
