Topmast was excellent for the five of us on a walking holiday. The location was ideal for eating out in Charlestown with lots of choice of restaurants and pubs. It was also a good location for buses which we used on three days to get to and from our coastal footpath walks. The number of bathrooms was a real boom as there were three single adults anRead mored one couple and everyone had their own bathroom. The bedrooms were well appointed and comfortable. Hide

Topmast is a lovely home, very well decorated and equipped and flows well. Thank you for the welcome pack of teabags and biscuits, they were very appreciated. We had 8 adults in our party and think it is just a tad too small for 8 adults, ok for 4 or 6 with 4 or two children. The restaurants are good in Charlestown, especially Rebellion and the RasRead morehleigh Arms. It was a good base for that part of Cornwall, and the price we paid was very reasonable for a 4 bed, ensuite house. Thank you Hide

What a fabulous home! We stayed for a week and were absolutely delighted. Tastefully decorated throughout. Lovely comfortable beds, no complaints from any of us. Great space for cooking and eating together. Location was brilliant, a short walk to the harbour and beach and a fantastic base for exploring further afield. Kids loved it. Perfection.
