We stayed in the Hidden Hut and loved the location. It was great that we were left undisturbed to enjoy our stay. We loved waking up to the sounds of nature - dawn chorus and a small babbling stream. Beautiful accommodation - small but it had everything we needed. Perfect.

Truro is a lovely city in Cornwall.
Truro is a lovely city in Cornwall. People are friendly and hospitable. Tons of restaurants, shops, cafe's, and there is a Town Hall that has entertainment, movie house so a short stay here would be filled with lots to do. The Cathedral is a lovely place to visit and there is lots to do from this central point.
Hire a car and head to Newquay, Falmouth or St Ives for the day.

City centre was lovely!
City centre was lovely! We enjoyed meandering through the cathedral (which was very grand, the architecture absolutely brought me to tears, managed to light a prayer candle for lent, also they have an ongoing exhibit about awareness of abuse in the church) and the cornwall museum is closeby :D they have wacky artefacts. The coffee and cornish pasties and the pastries are the bomb dot com but the other grub not so much, i mean, it's just typical british fare innit haha also truro station connects easily to penzance and the other more touristy bits. Transportationwise, quite hard, buses are a little but unreliable even with the time table. Not much uber drivers but the taxis are popping. There are taxis around the station and they have a taxi calling app and there are cards that you can get from the accommodation. Pretty old timey but charming.

Truro is an attractive small city and it’s easy to find parking and to walk around the shops and see the cathedral.
There are plenty of places to have coffee or lunch.
The bus station is right beside the shopping area, which has a large Marks and Spencer’s, which has a cafe, a large branch of Waterstones as well as a good selection of independent shops and an indoor market.

Great base for exploring Cornwall but not sure what it’s like in summer. We parked in the town with ease but we visited in November.
Masses of shops. It is the county town so is a magnet for shoppers.
Cathedral and Cornwall Museum worth a visit. Hall for Cornwall has a variety of shows.
Thoroughly enjoyed the pasty shop for lunch.
Check roadworks though. A30 was closed intoTrurofor the whole weekend whilst work is going on building the new by pass. It took us ages to follow the detour.

I did want to explore the town a bit more, especially the cathedral, but this visit was to see a show and I had to return the next day.
I had a meal at an Italian restaurant literally up the road from the hotel, it was decent enough.

Truro is a lovely place to visit.
Truro is a lovely place to visit. Old and new buildings to see and plenty of places to go. Resturants of many different cuisines and a nice open area to sit and chill with a coffee. There is a beach, about 7 miles away, (Perranporth) which is lovely and has the traiditional fish and chips, kiss me quick hats etc and you're not too far away from the north side so Newquay etc is all available within 45 to 60 minutes in the car.
Supermarkets are a plenty in and around Truro too. The catherdral is a must to visit. A beautiful building and well worth some time spent.
Excellent location, very close to the city centre. Adequate single-room size with small TV. Very clean and comfortable room with free luxury toiletries, tea/coffee-making facilities. Exceptionally welcoming and attentive hosts, Norbert and Peter, were helpful in suggesting interesting places around Cornwall. The house has a beautifully decorated shared lounge and in general is a lovely place with a stunning garden. Breakfast is very varied and abundant. I highly recommend this place and would definitely return.
The owner was really lovely and welcoming. I didn't feel like a stayed at a hotel...felt like their house. Little things like pillow spray, sweets, bottled water, bath products. Really really lovely. I would definitely stay here again!! And the food in the restaurant was amazing! And they noticed I was a vegetarian at dinner and they had a vegetarian breakfast waiting for me in the morning. Very nice people, very nice hotel!!
The location in Truro was very good, an easy walk to supermarkets, pubs, shops and the cathedral. Truro is a good base for exploring Cornwall. The cottage had a lot of character and charm and the decor was well coordinated. The beds were very comfortable. It was good having a car park, even though access to it was a bit tight. Communication from the hosts was excellent- prompt and detailed.
Well what can I say!! Gorgeous cottage very tastefully furnished and decorated.beautiful garden.the host thought of everything a personalized card and scones and jam on arrival lovely touch.and treats and a towel for the dog.everything there for you just had to buy food.lovely thoughtful hosts and perfect base for visiting other parts of Cornwall.
The cooked breakfast was very nice when it arrived. Our room was very nice with a lovely view over rolling hills but our son's room looked out directly onto a car park. Car parking was excellent. The hotel is about 20-30 minutes' walk from the town centre - it is a steep climb coming back but there is a bus stop very close.
This was an ideal location for us to use as a base to explore the Cornwall area. It was also just a 15 minute walk into the city centre and close to shopping if needed. The size was perfect for a couple and very clean, comfortable, private and quiet. The owner was available to give assistance if needed.
everything was perfect! Ross, the owner was always there to help if needed and everything was so up to date and it was nice to be more out in the country rather than in Truro. We visited many places and I loved Mevagissy which we visited on our way home. All of Cornwall is wonderful!!
The cabin has everything you need. Its a good size for two and the little garden is great. The location is great too. A couple of minutes from a lovely pub which does great food and just a short stroll into Truro. We will be staying there again.
Excellent location. Close to the truro railway station but a bit of a steep walk but we were absolutely okay with that. Close to lidl and Saintsbury so got few items easily. Our room had a fridge, microwave which was a good addition.
Very clean and cosy. Good facilities- loved the shower. Good to have an on-site parking space large enough for a SUV. Close walking distance to the city centre. Perfect location to explore Cornwall by car, train and bus.
A gorgeous hotel with lovely gardens, helpful staff, comfortable rooms, and a sunny terrace area perfect for late afternoon drinks. Our evening meal in the restaurant was superb, and breakfast the following day was spot-on.
It was clean,very comfortable,the hostess met me at the hotel and showed me everything .
Snacks were provided as breakfast not available.Everything in the room worked.
Brilliant.
Friendly hosts, well thought out accommodation. It really has everything you need for a stay in Cornwall. The location is great too - easy access to the very best of Cornwall.
