This place is just like staying with a friend or family, I would not really describe it as a hotel, more of a bed and breakfast, that serves very basic home made food. When we were there the doors to the toilets were not finished with handles held on by packing tape. The bar only served basic alcohol, only one... More

I have stayed at The Polraen on numerous occassions and I have been visiting on a regular basis ever since Gill & Martin (the owners) have been running the hotel. On my most recent visit I stayed with my dad and sister and, as always, we were made to feel very welcome at the hotel. The first thing you pick... More

We had a wonderful time at Polraen, with Martin and Gill. They are incredibly welcoming hosts, and it seemed like nothing was too much trouble for them. The food was excellent and often accompanied by Martin's highly entertaining, whimsical observations on life, the universe -- well anything really! The location was superb and enhanced by the depth of Martin and... More

The Polraen is a lovely old house, a former inn, with a warm and cosy feel situated in a quiet and peaceful area. The rooms are very clean and the food excellent. The hosts Gill and Martin are always most welcoming and friendly and nothing is too much trouble. The Polraen is handily situated as there is a bus stop... More

We have stayed at the Polrean multiple times and most recently for four nights in March. As usual, we wanted to stay longer. Gill and Martin are the best hosts anyone could ask for and nothing is too much trouble. Martin even cooked me the mackerel for breakfast that I caught the day before. The location is great, our room... More

This was our second stay at Polraen, the first in the early summer of 2012. This year we arrived for Easter and with the news of the floods we arrived with our concerns but these were unfounded, with our stay and travelling in no way impeded or hindered by the previously poor weather. The welcome and hospitality from Polraen’s owners,... More
