A beautiful hotel in a great location for exploring Cornwall. Our room was really comfortable with a lovely view over the gardens, comfortable bed, and the best bathroom with an excellent shower. Breakfast was delightful, plated to order and served by friendly staff. The staff at reception were all so welcoming and helpful.

Lovely bed and breakfast, great location and will definitely go back. Spotlessly Clean room and a plentiful breakfast basket delivered to your door. The bed was very comfortable and though next to a busy main road we didn't notice the traffic noise and it certainly didn't keep us awake.

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.
Immaculate. Clean, cosy, beautifully decorated and very functional kitchen with lovely breakfast area for the family and a huge bathroom with bath and separate shower. Nice big TV in the living room. Nothing was too much hassle for them; my wife couldn't find a hairdryer and called Mike who brought a new one within 20 mins! Location is perfect. Truro is very centrally located for the whole of Cornwall. The gorgeous cathedral and town are a short walk from the apartment. Parking in the back garden was very easy and plenty of space.
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 breakfast was a bit basic but plenty of it. We could help ourselves to bread and top ups of breakfast cerials.
The hosts were super friendly and attentive , very pleasent and easy going.
The beds were comfortable and the the tent spacious. The site was very good ,only the two bell tents with a privacy screen between them. Lovely hot showers and a small shared kitchen area which was adequate for our stay. Great location for getting around Cornwall.rking space next to the tent.
We organised a last minute break 4 night break to Cornwall and chose Chycara because it was within budget, the location was perfect and the accommodation was different to what we’d normally book (a b&b/hotel). We stayed in the Lake Lodge which was, as you’d expect, near the lake. It was clean and tidy and located in beautiful, peaceful grounds. Set just outside of Truro we were within easy reach of the east & west coast.
our stay included breakfast, which was some of the best I’ve had at any hotel, B&B or guesthouse ever. we told them it was our anniversary,
and there was a bottle of Prosecco waiting for us in the room. it was a very quiet stay, and the property is lovely. Truro Centre is a walkable distance, and the housekeeping stuff was so sweet and considerate of our needs.
The location is on a main road and so easy to get in and out of. The breakfast was very good and the room was big, quiet and very comfortable. The staff were very friendly and very helpful. It was a very pleasant stay and I will definitely use the hotel again.
A short taxi ride takes you into the centre of Truro £5, plus hood location to visit many other places in Cornwall from. Found the food to be fresh and enjoyed the wide choices at breakfast especially. Beds were very comfortable and room was spacious.
The property is in a great location to explore Cornwall and within walking distance (with small children) of Truro centre.
The house had lots of great features with young children and a lovely, relaxed layout.
The hotel was comfortable, & the staff very friendly. The hotel is situated in a quiet leafy part of Truro, not far from the city centre and close to some of Truro's fine resteraunts . I would visit again.
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.
Excellent hosts who were willing to go above and beyond. Clean, modern bedrooms and a very handy location for visiting all of Cornwall. We highly recommend this hotel
The room was basic but clean with a comfy bed. The best part was the staff (downstairs) - they were super nice and helpful when the heated went a bit rogue!
