Mount Royal Hotel on Chyandour Cliff, Penzance
Chyandour Cliff is the main road into the centre of Penzance, separated from the coast by the railway which is at a lower level. We stayed at this Bed and Breakfast hotel for 4 nights and enjoyed the stay. Very convenient for railway and bus stations, so we parked the car and didn't use it till we left.
