The Old School Room

How much do I love this property!? Well, this was my 4th stay at The Old School Room and I’m coming back again in 3 weeks.!! I love Marazion, and come down every year to visit relatives. My children absolutely love the garden and the upside down layout. The cottage is well equipped and comfortable. The beds are clean and we always get a good night’s sleep. We had wall to wall sunshine for our stay, and only used the car once. We went over to the Mount, magical, and walking the causeway just never gets old! Walked to The Cabin for lunch and a dip in the sea, went to the sculpture garden, mooched around the galleries. It was very quiet the week we were there and the kids loved the freedom of being able to pootle down to get an ice cream and go to the beach. We sat in the garden and watched the waves for hours. Next time I’m coming down by train and the easy transport links really do make this a very easy place for a non driver who loves train journeys and walking to visit! Can’t wait to come back (very!) soon. ...

We had a great 2 week break. Close to town centre, and even closer to a fantastic coffee shop! Very well fitted-out, spacious upper floor and the woodburner really heats the top floor fast (shop in town sells logs). Parking big enough for mid-size SUV, just make sure the handbrake works! They grey cat who visits isn't grumpy, just looks it ??...

This was my 4th stay at The Old School Room, and I’ll be back! I have stayed her with my family before and this time I travelled with a friend and her dog. The house is perfectly located for me, I travelled down on the train to Penzance, and then a quick taxi ride with Jolly Roger’s taxis and we were there. Sainsbury’s deliver so an hour later the food cupboards were stocked and we could relax. There is loads to do without a car. We were blessed with sunny weather. So we had beakfast in the garden, went to Trehenmeere sculpture garden and had an excellent lunch! Walked on the beach, visited the Mount (for the millionth time, it never gets old!). Spent an afternoon in the galleries chatting to the owners. Walked the coast path to Perranuthnoe, where there’s a couple of cafes so had lunch in one and a cuppa in the other. It was a wonderful holiday with a dear friend and we left wanting to come back, which to me is the sign of a good time! ...

Fantastic property , they have thought of everything, in a great location . Highly recommend

The Old School Room is a well thought out conversion, comfortable and stylish. The parking and garden are a wonderful bonus. The location is perfect, easy, quick access to the Coast Path and beaches, St Michael's Mount on the doorstep, but a short walk to Restaurants and Pubs. We barely used the car for the whole week....
