We stayed for two nights and the hosts Glenda and Dan were very welcoming and hospitable. The room was cozy, very clean and quiet. The property was very pretty and close to stores and restaurants. Would definitely book again if we ever come to Truro again and would recommend to anyone looking for a great place to stay.

I would highly recommend this gem for anyone staying around Truro. My wife and I stayed here and we felt like we were at home. It's a beautiful property that's incredibly well-maintained, clean, and comfortable. The hosts are fantastic people and we got to enjoy great conversations with them and other guests, as well as enjoy the delicious breakfast and baking! Absolutely one of the most enjoyable accomodation experiences we've had.

Dan and Glenda are very friendly and went out of their way to be certain we were comfortable and enjoying our stay. To say the place was clean is an understatement. You can try to do a finger dust test but you'll find none. The beds were comfortable, the breakfast... wow... the breakfast was homemade and a lot of care and attention is put into it. Coffee, orange juice, banana bread, freshly made fluffy Belgian waffles, sausages on the first day and a delicious quiche on the second day. The breakfast started with a yummy yogurt parfait that they also made freshly themselves. The only negative thing I can say is that I regret not finding this place sooner. We will definitely plan a trip that way so we can stay there again. Thank you Dan and Glenda for such an amazing place.

Procedure for check-in was a little unclear. I ended up wandering to the kitchen. She appeared a little displeased that I had not rang the doorbell or removed my shoes but there were no signs indicating that I should have. Other than that, it was a wonderful stay, and I would definitely recommend it.

Rooms were clean but small. Phone booth shower, microscopic TV. Close to Truro, but stayed in a hotel there next two nights. Less expensive, bigger rooms, much better breakfast and extremely nicer staff.

Response from Baker's Chest on 19 Sep 2022
I am sorry you were unhappy with your room. You failed to mention that you spilled a whole bottle of red wine on the bed which ruined the quilt, sheets and mattress protector, all of which we did not charge you for. The cost of your stay does not even come close to covering the cost of replacing these items. Please feel free to use hotels in the future.
