The property is wonderful, very unique. It was like staying in a stately home! Very quiet and peaceful. You can easily walk into Penzance and to the beach and there is easy access to all routes. There is a selection of superstores (Sainsbury’s, Tesco etc) a short drive away and plenty of unique food shops and local cafes/restaurants in the town. Great beach walks nearby. ...

It was lovely to return to a part of historic Nancealverne, to see the view from the beautiful lounge windows and admire the Armstrong family portraits and paintings. Admiral’s Den is cosy, comfortable and very well equipped. We enjoyed walking in the well kept grounds and look forward to staying here again. ...

Admirals Den is such a beautiful place to stay. The apartment is well decorated and equipped and the grounds are stunning. The location has many wonderful beaches and days out very nearby but also allows you to feel like you are in the middle of nowhere despite the close proximity to Penzance. ...
