Helston

10/10 Exceptional

The biggest regret of our 2-week UK trip to visit friends was that we didn't have more time in Porthallow, Cornwall. One night was barely enough to settle in, but we could not have asked for anything more comfortable than Gallen Treath. No-frills, but quaintly decorated, absolutely spotless and so cosy.. We did not get to meet Alicia but Clive was friendly and made himself available in the event we needed anything at all. Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous!
