Excellent service, good advice which helped us enjoy our stay here, nice room with comfortable bed and in a quite location so I slept very well, on the edge of town but not too far to walk to the centre. building site next door but that didn't interfere with the comfort of our stay. Sian is a delightful host and couldn't be more helpful, I wanted a sheet and blanket for my bed..no problem they were provided, I wanted streaky bacon for breakfast...no problem Sian bought both smoked and un-smoked bacon ...she spoiled me. I had a wonderful week and would love to go back.

This B&B is on the edge of Padstow, well away from the harbour, but don't let that put you off. You won't find better value for money anywhere. My single room was tiny but had evrything I could conceivably want packed into it and it was quiet and comfortable. Everything worked and well and everything was clean. The breakfast was superb. I can't imagine anyone being unhappy with this place and I strongly recommend it.

I am not usually a fan of B+B but I have now changed my mind. Taking my two thirty year old children away for a treat would have been expensive If we had stayed in a hotel, this was lovely with bright, clean rooms and everything you could wish for. Fresh coffee in the room and dressing gowns ! more than you would get in a 4star hotel. Definatly reccomend.

After an initial warm welcome from the landlady, Sian, our stay at Damara house was soured by our rude and abruptly ushered exit.

It was our first stay in a B&B and, perhaps naively, we therefore didn’t realise that its apparently - according to Damara house - common place to vacate rooms by 1000AM, being accustomed to noon checkouts at hotels. At no point were we told the check out time, and having not being able to check in until after 1600PM, we didn’t for a minute assume it would be so early. However, at 1000AM sharp on the Sunday morning, our hostess hammered aggressively on the door declaring we had 5 minutes to vacate the room. Despite having just got into the shower myself, we hastily began to pack our things and prepare to depart. Less than 5 minutes later, there was another thump at the door, with the landlady shouting; “He’s still in the shower, I can hear him - you need to leave now or I’ll have to charge you another night”.

We gathered our things, and were making our way downstairs, dismayed at what had become a very uncomfortable and unnecessary situation. We were met by our landlady who demanded our voucher, as our stay had been a gift experience. After giving her the relevant documentation, and making for the door, we turned to say goodbye – not wanting to depart on bad terms – only to have the front door slammed in our face.

My girlfriend, a secondary school teacher well accustomed to volatile scenarios, was clearly upset and dismayed at this astounding rudeness, and knocked on the door to talk to the landlady. As she tried to express our disappointment at the tainting of our trip, she was further appalled to be told that we had been “taking the p!ss”. Again, the front door was slammed after no signs of apology.

Ultimately, we’ve never before received such poor levels of customer service, and we are still astounded at the sheer rudeness we experienced. Needless to say, we would not return to Damara house, nor recommend it to others.
