The Dunedin Guest House is on a road leading to the seafront, with its long promenade and sheltered bay. It is 800 metres from the shops, pubs and restaurants of Penzance town centre.

We enjoyed everything about the property. The location was perfectly situated for our needs as we were travelling by train and bus. Our hosts were knowledgeable about their community and therefore we were able to plan our days by walking to or taking buses to our destinations. Breakfast which was included was perfect with many choices of fruit, yogurt, cereals and cooked breakfast.

Perfectly clean room. White bed linen. Quiet place where I could catch-up on my sleep in a fantastic comfortable warm bed. High quality breakfast freshly prepared. Welcoming friendly polite hosts. Seafront location. The guest house was spotlessly clean and I felt at home. I will definitely stay at Warwick House on my future trips to Penzance. I had a wonderful time.

    My 3rd stay at The Pendennis so I must like it here! The ownership has changed since my last visit several years ago but the experience was as good as ever. Great location in a quiet street, and a comfy, cosy and homely house. The room was immaculate and the breakfasts were absolutely superb. Richard and Sarah are great hosts, very friendly and helpful. If the previous owners Russell and Hazel read this, fear not, The Pendennis is in VERY safe hands. I will be back!

    I loved the cosiness and attention to detail - Louisa was a great hostess and even provided some eggs for breakfast from her precious chickens! It was a gorgeous, clean and inviting place - the perfect home away from home for a solo traveller. I liked that I could explore the immediate surroundings and come back for lunch to save myself a few bob! it was also a great location for the Minnack theatre and the sculpture gardens - Louisa gave me some great tips and ides for excursions and explorations. I had a fabulous time.
