Galleons Rest Reviews

Ian
Fantastic accommodation, great location, good communication with the owners as well. We will be going back again.
Christine
The beautiful house is situated within a 10 minute walk to the shops, restaurants and harbour and a short drive to lovely towns and beaches. I am disabled so having a downstairs bedroom and bathroom was a definite plus for me, the owners were very helpful and answered any concerns quickly. We would recommend this property and we will be back soon.
Tony
My wife and I stayed here along with our two small dogs first week of June 2024. Later in the week my daughter and partner also joined. The house, styling and contents were in very good condition and had plenty of space for all of us. The welcome milk and bread was very much appreciated after a long drive. The location to harbour and eateries (EdieRead more's, Rasleigh Arms, and Longstore) is perfect. I took time to play a few golf courses around and highly recommend St. Mellion (Nicklaus). Hide
Louise
Staying at Galleon's Rest was amazing - so comfortable and clean. My daughter and I felt very cared for while we were there. We had everything we needed and the short stroll into Charlestown was a treat. The walk to Carlyon Bay was gorgeous and the local cuisine was wonderful. Many thanks, Debra for all the effort you put into our stay :)
Clive
Great place to stay. Easy to explore Charlestown and close to other places of interest.
