Quaint, Quirky and Great Value
Lovely and clean. Quirky. Close to sea front and we had wonderful seaview from our room. A great base for your holiday and reasonably priced. Staff and owner very friendly and helpful. Breakfast served to fridge in your room daily and also has microwave, toaster, kettle and egg cooker. En suite. Will definitely return.

Pleasant stay
The room was off a decent size and comfortable. It featured both a double and single beds. The room did however feel tired and in need of redecorating (for instance there was evidence of what looked to be an old water leak on the ceiling just inside the door). Parking is on the street but plentiful and free. The guest house is ideally located for an evening stroll along the promenade or up in to the town. Overall, a pleasant stay.

The room was very comfortable and had everything in it we could possible want. We especially liked the wonderful breakfast selection left for us in the room: juice, milk, jams, yoghurt and chopped fresh fruit in the fridge; bread and choice of various cereals in the room and a beautifully laid table, and even a toaster and microwave. Perfect!!

Great stay at Duporth Guest house
very nice stay at Duporth Guest house. The location was quiet and convenient. Lots of free parking spaces nearby. The room was great with a nice dining area where we have been able to take our breakfast with a nice sunshine through the big window. Breakfast was well arranged with plenty of choice, which deserve a thumb up with the current self catering requirements. Location was near from many great spot of the UK most south western part: Minack theater, Botallac mines, St Michael's mount, Mousehole, Land's end, St Ives are all with 30min drive. Great stay overall !

It was good to have the breakfast making facilities in the room . The first morning everything in the fridge was frozen as the temperature was set too low. Our room didn’t get cleaned and fresh breakfast goods weren’t supplied for the second day, we said something to the owner and were told we went out too late for this to be done- we were out before 11 and it stated that it had to be done before 12. Someone had been up and unlocked our door and left it unlocked as well as I made sure that I had locked it before leaving. We brought our two year old with us so it wasn’t good that we had paid for breakfast to be included and it wasn’t provided!

fair price for a B&B
Good location with front rooms overlooking the sea. Breakfast is "do it yourself" in the bedroom so limited in choices especially hot food.

I was very delayed on the train, but this did not faze the owner, I was told how to access the property. When I arrived all was as arranged. I arrived to find everything I could need in a clean, tidy, and comfortable room. There was everything in the room for breakfast. From fresh eggs, bread butter three cereal choices, milk, orange juice, jam, marmalade tea coffee. A fridge, microwave, egg boiler, kettle couldn't ask for more. Will definitely stay again.

3 night stay at Duporth started under a cloud due to Hotels.com bad BAD customer service. When we got to hotel we knew to go straight to room as owner had rang to advise procedure. Room was lovely airy and light. Windows had cobwebs but spiders do happen!! I liked the breakfast being in room, my travelling companion found it quite odd. It won't be to everyone's taste but I liked having it all in room and ready when I was. Steve was very nice and chatty. Overall a lovely break.

Very pleasant sunny sea view room. Owner Steven was very kind. Good selection of cereals, fruits, various kind of tea and coffee, fresh eggs from local farm. No pressure to eat your breakfast at restricted time, eat it at your leisure.

Slightly Quirky... Spotlessly clean.
Duporth is pleasingly quirky, clean and welcoming. In the morning, on the day of my arrival, proprietor Steve sent a reassuring text to confirm everything was in order. When I arrived that evening, I found there was no breakfast room, but instead, a fridge, microwave and a comprehensive selection of quality continental breakfast provisions and beverages in my room. I have to say, I might have preferred to eat in a separate dining area, but I couldn’t fault the breakfast itself. Overall, I was very impressed and would heartily recommend the Duporth.

My stay was only 3 days. The room was cleaned every day. I only used the room to rest my head and didn't really take full advantage of the amenities on offer. Overall an excellent guest house for my needs.
