Paul and Deb were excellent hosts, the breakfast was delicious and the scrambled eggs were the best I've had in five weeks of travelling. The room was spacious and comfortable and the shower again one of the best. Thank you so much for the bath mat in the shower base....most places don't have them and it feels like you're going to slip over. Finally thank you for making our bed and tidying our room.... again something we've not had in five weeks. Your interaction with the guests is thoughtful and encourages the group to learn things from each other and make friends along the way.

Nothing.... everything was good

Isn't it amazing how some people get it all just right! We thoroughly concur with all the other positive reviews. My wife and I enjoyed an excellent weekend for our wedding anniversary, chose the sea view room (a good move) and felt very happy and relaxed with Deborah, Paul and Cleo's warmth and hospitality. A lovely, well maintained house in an ideal area, a great breakfast, lovely bed linen and good conversations. Nothing pretentious, no airs and graces, just clean and homely B&B as it should be. We won't bother looking for anywhere else for our next visit. Oh, and thank you so much for the thoughtful touches on our anniversary :-)

Only the obvious really: that we couldn't have stayed longer. Still, next time.

The family that owns the place was very friendly and helpful from the first moment. We had made a trip plan before coming to St.Ives, but the suggestions the owner gave us made our trip much more enjoyable. The design of the rooms has sea and beach details that reflect the region where they are located. We really loved the color harmony of our room with the artwork of the artist Adrian Grainger. Working with local artists and businesses while creating the design of the property is a very special and stylish approach. Our room was spacious, tidy and very clean. Breakfast was rich and extremely delicious. The place is in a location that can be easily reached everywhere by both car and public transportation. We will definitely come again. Thank you for your warm hosting- dear Deborah, Paul and little Cleo :)

There was nothing we didn’t like

We recently had the pleasure of staying at Paul and Deborah's place, and it was a delightful experience from start to finish. The accommodations were comfortable and inviting, making for a very pleasant stay. The place is just a stone's throw from Carbis Bay Beach, which added to the charm of my visit. A highlight of my visit was the delicious breakfast that was served each morning. The variety and quality of the food were exceptional, and it was a great way to start each day. I would also like to extend a special thank you to their BOSS, Chloe. Her warmth and friendliness added a lovely personal touch to my stay. I highly recommend staying at Paul and Deborah's place for anyone seeking a welcoming and enjoyable experience. Warm regards, Chirath and Dhyami

Oystercatcher has the best all around service all summed up with great service, overall cleanliness and vibe of the house, great food, perfect location and just all the right mix of everything that you are looking for a great stay/holiday vacation. Deborah and paul made sure that the guests are all comfortable and they even go extra mile by sharing top tips to make your stay easier which i love the most about and they made my first cornwall visit a sure memorable one! Wouldnt have a second thought to book here again come my next holiday!

Paul, Debbie and Cleo :) are the nicest most sincere hosts, so accommodating and friendly, who go out of their way to make you feel comfortable and welcome. It was like staying in a home away from home. They were extremely helpful with recommendations on places to visit. The hotel is close to everything we wanted to see walking or by car. Superb breakfasts cooked by chef Paul👌. The room had all the amenities we needed, and it was clean, comfortable and quiet. We absolutely loved it and thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Oystercatcher. 100% recommend. Thank you 10/10!! 😁

The best B&B I've stayed in. Warm welcome from Paul, Deborah and Cleo. Very friendly and helpful hosts. I appreciated the complimentary upgrade from a room overlooking the rear garden to one with a sea view. The room and ensuit bathroom were very well appointed. In addition to tea making facilities, the provision of Cornish biscuits and an elderflower drink was a nice touch. Very comfortable bed (great pillows!).

Nothing. (As an aside, I would have opted for a ground floor room because of my age and resulting difficulty with stairs - but my hosts were not aware of this nor was it mentioned during the booking process. Paul kindly carried my heavy case up to the room and again to my car on departure).

Our stay at the Oystercatcher was wonderful. Deborah, Paul, and Cleo are fantastic hosts; we have rarely felt so welcome at a BnB. The accommodation has everything one could wish for, including an excellent breakfast (veggie friendly). Our highlight: the tips that Deborah and Paul provided were brilliant. Thanks to them, we were able to make the most of our time in Cornwall. This is definitely a trip we will not forget anytime soon. Therefore, we can highly recommend the Oystercatcher to everyone! We will definitely come back!

The hosts and facilities were wonderful! There were so many personal touches to the room - super clean, lovely linen, super comfortable bed, great biscuits and drinks in addition to the usual tea/coffee etc. Breakfasts were excellent quality and the menu choices were outstanding for a small bnb. Steepish interior stairs to climb with luggage but that’s expected in a terrace. We loved it!

We came to this area to have nice walks over the coast path. This B&B fulfilled all of the promises. We occupied the room at the front of the first floor with a lovely sea-view. Hosts were more than nice and helpfull. You should definitely have a meal at La Casita; its a 3 minute walk and has wonderful meals, athmosphere and tapas to offer. Close to a bus-stop that will facilitate you on al your walks for only £ 2,- most of the time.

Loved it!
