Poole Farm

Probably our favourite place to stay, the caravan CL is so peaceful, wonderful hosts Lou & Greg. Facilities are pristine, and the homemade meals are fantastic, delivered to your van. How great is that! Give it a try, you will not be disappointed.

Poole Farm B&B / hotel was quite simply brilliant. Nestled in the country north of Launceston, Poole Farm offers the charm and elegance of an old English manor. We stayed for two nights. We were warmly met at the door by Greg (co-owner) and Rufus (friendly spaniel) which somehow set the tone for the rest of the stay. The room was immaculately furnished and maintained with all the necessary facilities and a hugely comfortable bed. We wanted for nothing. The breakfast selection was vast with a personal recommendation to experience the full English breakfast. Wonderfully prepared and cooked by Louise (co-owner), she demonstrated an impressive culinary talent. The breakfast was so good we decided to take dinner there too, which was equally well-presented and particularly tasty. A small computer glitch due to the worldwide outage was swiftly resolved. There really is nothing of substance to offer on how Poole Farm could be improved. It was simply outstanding.

Wow, what an amazing place, where even the small details had been thought through, like USB chargers in plug sockets and useful but also luxury items in the bathroom. We had pre-ordered an evening meal, or should I say feast. Very generous portions of very high quality home cooked food with plenty of fresh, beautifully done vegetables and fruit from the garden. The room was light and spacious (with blackout blinds) and beds comfortable. Breakfast was ordered the evening before and like everything else, outstanding quality and amounts. Owners friendly, checking that all was as needed but still leaving plenty of space. Would definitely recommend

This is an outstanding rural bed and breakfast. We stayed for one night whilst walking the Tamara Way. Louise cooked a restaurant quality evening meal followed by a superb breakfast. The attention to detail is exceptional as is the warmth of welcome.

On arriving Lou and Rufus (Springer Spaniel) gave my husband and I a very warm greeting. Lou took us to our room and what a room. Luxurious indeed, with great views. Neals Yard toiletries, Border biscuits, fresh milk, water in a very silent fridge. Kettle and Tassimo coffee machine. Fluffy towels, robes, slippers and the most comfortable bed ever. It was my birthday and lovely Lou left a birthday card for me. Lou is just one amazing cook and our evening meal was just the best, in the very lovely dining room. Both breakfast menu and if you desire an evening meal are delicious with a variety of dishes to choose from. Fresh produce from their garden was a delight. We did meet Greg (Lous' husband) and he like Lou was so very lovely. The house is so clean and welcoming and the gardens are so very well kept. Both Lou and Greg was a mindful of information of places to visit. We have booked the annexe for May 2024 and honestly cannot wait to get back. Can honestly say, Poole Farm is just the place we have stayed in.

First impressions when arriving were good. After a night of tourential rain we discovered a continuous drip from the guttering which kept us awake all night. The extractor fan in the bathroom was covered in dust which had clearly not been cleaned for a considerable amount of time. We discovered the washing machine and tumble dryer were located in a shed a distance away from the cottage which we had to pay extra for! this is totaly unexceptable as these items should be included in the booking price and not classed as an extra if you are self catering. On examination of some of the ovenware cooking oil from the previous guests was still visable indicating that this had not been cleaned, surely house keeping should of checked all tableware and ovenware were clean before the next Guests arrived. I would give this cottage a maximum of 4 which is quite generous considering the issues highlited.

This is probably the best B&B we have ever stayed in, we could not fault a thing! The rooms are beautiful, comfortable and immaculately clean. The breakfast is plentiful and cooked beautifully. Also available was extras such as evening meals if you wanted it for a very reasonable price. We will definitely be booking again.

We had a very comfortable stay in the self-catering cottage attached to the house. Lou and Greg were very welcoming and did everything to make our stay go well. The cottage is attractive, well-equipped and well-furnished, and the beds and sitting room especially comfortable. The location is very quiet and surrounded by very pretty countryside and masses of birdsong which gladdened our hearts. For us the great plus was that Lou cooked us a very ample dinner every evening from a quite impressive menu. So we felt well looked after. We'd come again.
