Colazione superlativa...

- Richard (10/5): -
- Guido (9/5): Wohnen wie ein Fürst - Das Zimmer mit sensationellem Ausblick, sowie das sehr gute Frühstück. Die Gastgeber sind sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Es gab zwar einen elektrischen Heizofen, aber im Bad war es trotzdem etwas kühl.
- Mark (10/5): - Tranquility, so peaceful, a great place to recharge your batteries. Lorraine was amazing, nothing too much bother. Breakfast was superb.
- Richard (10/5): Perdect - Breakfast was exceptional --
- Charlotte (9/5): Classy country living offering home comforts. - Location was wonderful if a lush and secluded spot is what you’re after. The house has lovely Georgian features, window seats galore and very generous areas downstairs with pool table and books for guests to enjoy and terrace and lawn outside. Seeing red deer and a fox from our rooms were unexpected treats. Lorna’s vine-roasted tomatoes were a particular highlight of breakfast. Great base for exploring Camel estuary and beyond. Nothing.
- DAVID (10/5): It was brilliant - Space, comfort, lovely hosts, great breakfast, excellent location
- Anonymous (10/5): Hidden gem - Costislost house is a hidden gem. A beautiful period property, beautifully furnished and decorated. Super comfy bed and large bath. Hosts are extremely friendly and nothing was too much trouble. Attention to detail was incredible. Everything thought of. Breakfast was delicious with great choices. Our dog was equally spoilt with a welcome gift! Plenty of outside space for walking the dog and enjoying the wonderful views. We loved everything!
- Charlotte (10/5): Brilliant place to stay - Exceptional, welcoming and relaxed
Wonderful house and gardens
Great breakfast.
Hosts went out of their way to make us feel welcome with many extra touches to make our stay really comfortable. Nothing
- Stephanie (10/5): Exceptional, with a very warm welcome - We had a fabulous stay at Costislost House. From the moment we arrived, Lorna gave us and our labrador a very warm welcome. We felt instantly at home. The property has beautiful traditional features with two large reception rooms where you can relax, roaring open fires, and extensive grounds, perfect for dog walks. Our room was spacious and had all the facilities you could hope for, and more. Breakfast was phenomenal with so much choice, in front of an open fire. Lorna and Andre were wonderful hosts. Everything had been carefully considered to make it a perfect stay. We were sad not to stay longer and will definitely return. Exceptional value for money. The property is a couple of minutes drive away from the Pencarrow stately home and gardens which are stunning and well worth a visit. Nothing!
- Jeffrey (10/5): Excellent! We’ll be back with our friends! - Great property and super host. Loved the Jane Austen vibe. Billiards and a nightcap were really fun. Lorna was an oasis in a storm of mediocrity. Super location as a hub to visit sights on both the north and south coasts of Cornwall. Nothing
- Dave (10/5): Excellent - Original features of an old property, spacious and beautiful views over the countryside. Nothing!
- Harry (10/5): De mooiste en beste overnachting tijdens ons verblijf in zuid-west Engeland! - Het gebouw en onze kamer zagen er prachtig uit. Wat een stilte! Heerlijk. De mooiste en beste overnachting tijdens ons verblijf in zuid-west Engeland. Super ontbijt! Vriendelijke gastheer en -vrouw. Alles top.
- Corrina (10/5): - Loved the house,bedroom view and breakfast, and they except dogs 😄
- Aleksandar (10/5): Besser geht nicht! - Das Costislost House in Wadebridge ist wirklich etwas ganz Besonderes. Wir sind extra aus Deutschland angereist, und es hat sich absolut gelohnt!
Wir haben im „Partridge“-Zimmer übernachtet – wunderschön eingerichtet, sehr geräumig, mit einem unglaublich bequemen Super-Kingsize-Bett und einem großen, makellos sauberen Badezimmer. Alles wirkte durchdacht und liebevoll gestaltet.
Die Gemeinschaftsbereiche sind ein wahrer Genuss: ein gemütliches Wohnzimmer mit offenem Kamin, eine charmante Bibliothekslounge und ein Spielzimmer mit einem Billardtisch in voller Größe. Das Haus strahlt so viel Charakter und Wärme aus.
Das Frühstück war fantastisch – eine großzügige Auswahl an Eiern nach Wunsch zubereitet, Aufschnitt, Käse, frischem Obst, Joghurt, Toast, Croissants, Schokoladenbrötchen sowie Kaffee, Tee, Orangen- und Apfelsaft. Frisch, reichhaltig und wunderschön angerichtet.
Eine besondere Erwähnung verdient Lorna, die sich während unseres gesamten Aufenthalts wunderbar um uns gekümmert hat. Herzlich, aufmerksam und aufrichtig gastfreundlich – genau die Art von Gastgeberin, die eine Reise unvergesslich macht.
Wenn Sie Cornwall besuchen, suchen Sie nicht weiter. Sehr empfehlenswert
- Roots (10/5): Peaceful and relaxing. - The breakfast was delicious and the host was happy to adjust the menu to our exact requirements. The location was so peaceful with a view of green fields and a seranade of birdsong.
- Colin (9/5): -
- Charlotte (10/5): Fabulous stay - Location - fabulous
Room - spacious and very comfortable
Food - outstanding
Staff - welcoming and accommodating There was nothing!
- Lily (10/5): -
- Bantick (10/5): Fantastic! - By far the best bed and breakfast I have ever stayed in. Everything was so nice, room was amazing with lovely views across the garden. I felt very welcomed by the hosts and had an amazing breakfast in the morning which I will say was big and cooked to perfection.
I will be back but next time I will come with the family and enjoy the area.
- Paula (10/5): Fabulous B&B Owners exceptional, room spacious very clean with a fab bed. Great views & Open fires! - We were made to feel so welcome in such a beautiful house.

- Mark (10/5): A true home from home a real treat! - Location was fabulous, the house has so much character, Lorna & Andre were truly marvelous host from the minute we stepped into the house we felt right at home.
The breakfasts is one of the best we’ve ever had. Nothing to dislike.
- Dawn (10/5): Weekend away - Everything!! Lorna and Andre were the perfect hosts, and the house and grounds are stunning. Nothing.
- Jillian (10/5): A very friendly and all wonderful experience, we will visit again but for longer next time. - Everything was perfect, wonderful welcome, beautiful building, fantastic spacious room and bathroom. Wonderful comfy bed and the breakfast was fabulous. Nothing could have been improved on. Everything was perfect.

- Christopher (8/5): -
- Georgia (10/5): Cosy and warm stay in a gorgeous manor house - Cosy and warm stay. We felt so welcome and the house was gorgeous. Beds were very comfortable and the breakfast was delicious. Lorna and Andre were so helpful and made us feel at ease from the moment we arrived. Would definitely return! Nothing, everything was perfect.
- Mudzingwa (10/5): A Thoughtful Haven of Comfort and Calm - This property is a gem. So classy, so comfortable, so serene. The hosts are super hosts. They put so much thought into everything. I loved the little touches doted around the property; coffee stations, mince pies, the fluffy hot water bottles on the bed etc. We got the much needed restful sleep after a hectic holiday. Pity we couldn’t stay longer. Nothing at all.
- Klaus (10/5): -
- Simon (10/5): -
- Peter (10/5): Even better than the glowing reviews that guided my choice - Peaceful rural setting for a beautiful house
- Leo (10/5): - Lorna and Andre were the most amazing hosts! Who actually pulled out all the stops to make the stay amazing
- Jean (10/5): This b&b provides everything you need for a relaxing stay. - The house was beautiful and so interesting. Our room was spacious and the bathroom was really luxurious. The breakfast was great, and we loved sitting in front of the fire in the evening. Nothing!
- Paul (10/5): - Beautiful house, with lots of little details such as big fluffy bath towels. Lorna was very attentive. Spectacular views from the bedroom window. Highly recommended.
- Tamar (9/5): -
- susan (9/5): Perfect. Will have to go back in the summer to sit outside and look at the beautiful scenery. - The hosts were fabulous, the hotel was exceptionally comfortable and so well catered for, there wasn’t anything we could find wrong with it. We sat by the fire in the central room and it was lovely. It was marginally difficult to find, they need to make a bigger sign on the gate.
- massimiliano (10/5): Soggiorno piacevolissimo in un tipico cottage - Tipicamente british e di alta qualità Nulla
- Christophe (10/5): - La gentillesse de nos hôtes
La beauté et le calme du lieu
Le petit déjeuner fait maison fantastique Rien
- Herman (10/5): - Spacious, well manteined, special aura, just nice and amazing place, really nice with plenty of small details and nice touches. Amazing value for the money, breakfast second to none, fresh fruits, nice ham, nice salmon. If you are in the area, it is definitively worth the stay ! Even a small pumpkin at the door (visited in hallowen time) genuinely has nothing to dislike about the place nor the service.
- Beverley (10/5): Warmth and comfort made it feel so homely - We were warmly welcomed and shown around. Our dog had an even warmer welcome and he very much appreciated the strategically placed treats and toys. Our room was lovely with such a gorgeous view, comfortable bed and beautiful bed linen. Hot drink stations around the house as well as in room. We made good use of the lounge, reading our books by the fire, and also the games room. Breakfast was amazing, beautifully cooked and presented. Being able to use the microwave in the dining room to heat something in the evening was a boon as we didn’t want to eat out every evening Can’t think of anything, it was all a joy
- Rebecca (9/5): Wonderful stay with our teenage children, we would love to visit again. - Beautiful family home, perfectly set up and organised for families with a games room, lounge area and acres of outdoor space. The bedrooms were spacious, clean and well equipped with comfortable mattresses and bedding. We especially appreciated the additional provisions - coffee machines and capsules, a huge choice of tea bags and fresh milk, biscuits and crisps. Breakfast was absolutely superb - plenty of choice, lovely fresh fruit, fabulously cooked and presented hot options. We found Lorna and Andre to be welcoming, accommodating and really friendly and helpful. We would love to bring our teenage children to stay again. Absolutely nothing!
- Nicky (10/5): - Everything.
Amazing.
Highly recommend. Nothing
- Karin (10/5): - Super morgenmad
- David (10/5): - Everything was fab and nothing was to much trouble, Lorna and Andre where excellent hosts always smiling and a great welcome and a happy good morning when you came down for breakfast. The breakfast was excellent all cooked fresh and cooked perfectly. Would definitely rebook in the summer so you can sit out in the gardens. Just a little heads up this house is a graded building it's quirky and has a lot of original features which alone makes it a unique hotel, so if this appeals to you, you ll love your stay. saying that all of the facilities in the room work, the shower in our room was great. And the bed was really comfy. Hard not to find fault with anything really. Keep doing what you do Lorna and Andre, the little touches that you do make all the difference. ***** Nothing
- Matthias (10/5): Diese Unterkunft ist ein Must Visit! - Im Dunkeln zwar etwas schwierig zu finden, aber eine der schönsten Unterkünfte, die ich je besucht habe. In jeder Ecke gibt es Getränke und Kleinigkeiten für einen erholsamen Aufenthalt und das nicht nur für die Menschen, sondern auch für 4-Beiner. Wir kamen abends um 20.00 Uhr und sofort wurde gefragt, ob sie den Kamin im Spielzimmer anmachen sollten und ob wir dort noch ein wenig Billard etc spielen möchten. Die Zimmer sind riesig. Das Bad ebenso, welches mit großen fenstern zum Garten ausgestattet sind. Dies ist evtl der einzige Kritikpunkt, denn es gab keinen Blickschutz. Also falls draußen jemand im Garten/Terrassenbereich sich aufhält und nach oben blickt, könnte man gut gesehen werden. Zum Frühstück gab es zusätzlich noch eine Auswahl an Wurst, Käse und verschiedenen Broten.
- Mel (10/5): Fantastic hosts who will make your stay memorable. - Lorna & Andre could not do more to make their guests feel welcome and appreciatited, they are very friendly, very attentive and have thought and supplied everything to make a stay a Costislost House fantastic. You could not get a better welcome from family!!!
Rooms are huge, bathrooms spotless, beds you could sleep in for a month. Breakfast was amazing and the property shouts charm, characture and history - with masses of parking too.
Cant wait to go back with family & friends. Leaving!! and the fact we couldnt stay longer!!
- Lisa (10/5): The Perfect Rural Retreat in Cornwall - Our stay at Costislost House was everything we hoped it would be, and more.
A beautiful peaceful rural location within easy reach of Wadebridge and the stunning Cornish coast. The house itself offers spacious rooms in which to relax with stunning views over the garden and surrounding countryside.
Lorna and Andre are the perfect hosts with nothing too much trouble. So many thoughtful touches that made our stay so comfortable.
A fabulous selection of buffet breakfast followed by an extensive cooked menu to choose from, freshly made to order. Nothing!
- Michael (10/5): - If I could have given a 12, I would have.
The owners have created a relaxed and friendly atmosphere, which is only surpassed by the service. Nothing
- Scott (10/5): Lorna and her husband were very welcoming and nothing was to much trouble. l - Breakfast was excellent and great choice of food offered.
- Jacqueline (10/5): Amazing , will be back next year . - What a fantastic property .
The whole experience was seamless - from check in to departure , no stone remained unturned
The hosts Lorna and Andre couldn’t do any more to make the stay amazing .. nothing was too much trouble …
Real fast was varied and plentiful . A veritable selection of continental supported by a variety of hot options . No one would or should go hungry until t time. Might be a little difficult to find initially …
W3W took us to the wrong location !
- Warren (9/5): -
- Helen (9/5): Wonderful hosts offering superb clean accommodation - Hosts went to great lengths to ensure all home comforts were catered for. Super comfortable beds, bed linen, bath robes, various strengths of coffees, varieties of tea etc Remote location, whilst offering peace and tranquility, did not allow us to walk to pubs and restaurants in the evenings - a necessity as establishment does not offer any food other than (a splendid) breakfast. Wi-fi a bit flaky but that shouldn’t detract from a 5* review
- NIKKI (10/5): - Fantastic grounds, beautiful house and lovely owners
- Bob (10/5): If we come back to Cornwall we would stay again - Excellent Breakfast, hot, good quality of food, well presented. Costislost is a lovely place to stay, any thing that you wanted needed was there for you. We felt as though we were staying with friends.
- Robert Wheeler (10/5): Absolutely perfect for my golfing trip to North Cornwall! - Breakfast was excellent with large choice of buffet and cooked dishes. I had their Eggs Benedict - on both mornings I was there as it was so good! Hosts very friendly and the location is incredibly quiet, with easy access to Wadebridge. The property is an older building and has huge rooms, which are fitted out in keeping with the property's style and character. Very comfortable bed. I really enjoyed my stay there. Nothing.
- Henk (10/5): -
- Harriet (10/5): -
- Schiburr (10/5): Auf den Spuren der Zweisamkeit - Tolles "Altes" Anwesen, Super freundliche Betreiber, das Haus bietet alles was das Herz begehrt. Gerne immer wieder. Betten und Bad ein Traum.
Garten lädt zum Träumen ein & das Spielezimmer lässt keine Langeweile zu.
Jedes Zimmer hat einen offenen Kamin.
- ANNE (8/5): Excellent stop over with very welcoming hosts. Good value - Quiet location. Comfy bed . Beautiful view from room Unfortunately no evening food . Would be brilliant with a restaurant..
- Williams (10/5): A memorable 4 Day stay/excelent ! - Wonderful Cornish location plenty safe parking for cars The morning selection of goodies Re Breakfast were exceptional as good as it gets will stay again a real adventure with everything on offer my personal Big Thank You’s James Williams this This stay was perfect no adjustment needed thanks A
- Ursula (8/5): - Herrlicher Garten , super nette Gastgeber Leider etwas abgelegen
- Nicky (10/5): - Absolutely fabulous place. We booked last minute as needed a dog friendly place and this was the most fortuitous find we could have hoped for.
Wonderful hosts, Lorna & André, made us incredibly welcome. Beautiful house, the most comfortable bed, best sleep, fabulous garden and excellent breakfast!
Nothing to fault, can highly recommend - we will be back!! Nothing to fault.
- Camilla (10/5): Memorable visit - Warm welcome by hosts.
Sharing tips of local restaurants, travel sites and history. Bathroom lacked some supplies.
- Richard MS (10/5): - Fabulous country house setting - heaven for dogs and ours was made to feel very welcome too. Excellent breakfast - couldn't fault it, and loads of nice complementary 'extras' in our room and lounge we areas - not least an amazing dog hamper ! Overall a really pleasurable stay and excellent value. Honestly can't think of anything
- Stephen (10/5): Made to feel it was our home. Breakfast superb. Keeps you going all day. - A very grand country house tat is welcoming comfortable Nothing
- Jon (10/5): Magnificent. - Magnificent in every way. Stunning property and the room was fantastic. Plentiful supply of coffee/tea/snacks etc.
Charming hosts, keen to ensure we had a great time. Breakfast was exceptional. Highly recommended. Nothing. But to help others, it is a little tricky to find. If you use what2words, whilst the one provided is correct for the property, your satnav takes you down the neighboring farm track by mistake. Try reefs.amicably.ladders instead which will take you to the correct lane access (through a white gate) down to the property
- Roger (9/5): Clean tidy and friendly staff - Good quite location
- Alan (10/5): A great few days in great company - Lorna and Andre were great hosts- very welcoming and nothing too much trouble. Extremely comfortable bed in a large cosy room. Nothing
- Gallagher (10/5): -
- Philippa (10/5): Comfortable, characterful and welcoming - This is probably the best B&B we've ever stayed at in England! It far exceeded our expectations. It is a spacious and characterful country house with friendly and generous hosts. Our bedroom was spacious, beautifully furnished and the super-king bed very comfortable. The bathroom had robes (and far more towels than we needed) and a quirky antique toilet!! Breakfast was fantastic and there are tea/coffee stations in the public rooms as well as a kettle and coffee pod machine in the bedroom. (Free pastries too!) And the extra pleasant surprise was a big games room with a pool table, chess, backgammon, Scrabble etc. We came back from our walks early to relax and play games! In an ideal world I'd have loved a swimming pool, but then no doubt the price would go up!
- Janine (10/5): Danke an die Gastgeber Lorna und Andre für einen wundervollen und entspannten Familienurlaub! - Wunderschöne Lage, großartige Gastgeber, köstliches Frühstück - wir haben uns sehr wohl und wie zu Hause gefühlt in diesem außergewöhnlich tollen Haus! Wir kommen gerne wieder!
- dafna (10/5): מומלץ בחום! - זוג מקסים שנתן לנו חווייית אירוח נהדרת. קיבלנו חדר ענק במבנה כפרי בן 150 שנה, והרגשנו שאנחנו אורחים אישיים בבית אצולה. ממש נהדר!
- derek (9/5): I would not hesitate on returning. - Fabulous old house with plenty of character. Great hosts. Breakfast extremely good. A very large bedroom with a massive bathroom. The only thing I would suggest is for a decent size wardrobe. Lacking in hanging space.
- Fiona (9/5): Luxurious and peaceful. - Splendid
- petra (10/5): Absolutely chilled luxury - Oh absolutely everything,the most beautiful house we have stayed in,fab room,gorgeous big bed,stunning garden,games room,coffee and tea stations dotted around,very dog friendly .Andre very helpful,not met Lorna yet or had breakfast but I’m sure they would be absolutely glorious. That we haven’t booked for more nights !
- howard (10/5): Costislost House: a peaceful retreat - Costilost House is a rare find. I had the pleasure of staying there in August '25. The hosts are a delight and nothing is too much trouble. The house is off the "beaten track" and if the beach is not important for you then its location is perfect for Polzeath, Padstow and exploring the Cornish coast, notwithstanding Cornish roads! The house itself has elegant charm, and has beautiful touches in keeping with the period of the house. The rooms (my room) was spacious and comfortable, the bed especially so. The breakfast was excellent: full English or continental style. The house despite its age had strong WiFi and hot showers, my room had a bath!
If you are looking for a peaceful retreat, a base from which you can explore Cornwall, then Costislost House might be your solution, far from the madding crowd! No, everything fine...
- Marissa (10/5): Super goed - Prachtige kamer, super lekker ontbijt, hartelijke gastvrouw /
- Kate (10/5): Fabulous ..a hidden gem 😊 - A hidden gem! Thank you Lorna & Andre. Such a tranquil setting just 15-20 mins from Padstow/Polzeath & beaches. My dog & I were given such a warm welcome, she even had a box of toys & treats in our room! Our room was huge, but cosy, very comfy super king size bed and enormous en-suite bathroom. Fabulous breakfast selection (the best pain au chocolat) and delicious cooked breakfast set me up for our days out! Nothing was too much trouble ..we’ll be back 😊
- Keith (8/5): An enjoyable stay with pleasant hosts at an old Cornish country house. - Lorna and Andre were very welcoming hosts throughout the stay. The room size and bathroom were very large and the super king-sized bed was very comfortable. It was a very peaceful scenic location. The house furnishings are in keeping with the period of the house. The breakfast was particularly good. Directions to the drive entrance need to be more explicit despite sat nav , 3 words etc. Reference to convenient road signs at the initial turn off would be very helpful.
- Henrike (9/5): Guter Ausgangspunkt um Touren auf und um den Camel Trail zu unternehmen. - Sehr schön gelegen, besonders wenn man Fahrradtouren machen möchte.
Sehr freundliche Gastgeber. Tolles Frühstück.
- Eleonora (10/5): Oasi di pace nella campagna inglese. Super consigliato!! - TUTTO quello che ha offerto la struttura, dallo staff all’atmosfera.
- Peter (10/5): Lovely house, welcoming hosts and great location - Lorna, Andre and family were very welcoming and hospitable. Beautiful country house in a fantastic location in the countryside which is still convenient for Padstow, Polzeath, Harlyn, Bodmin, Constantine Bay etc. Large bedroom and very large en suite. Lovely Continental and cooked breakfast in breakfast room overlooking the lawn. The best English/Cornish cooked breakfast I have had in many years! Very dog-friendly as well - our spaniel loved his stay. Nothing really could be improved with the stay.
