B&B on Porthpean Road, Charlestown - 1.2km from the tall-ship harbour

Baytree B&B is a guesthouse at 104 Porthpean Road in Charlestown, the Georgian harbour village that served as a principal filming location for the BBC's Poldark series. The deep-water harbour, still home to tall ships, is 1.2km on foot.

Each room has a private en-suite bathroom and a flat-screen TV. A continental breakfast of pastries, fruit, and juice is included in the rate. Free WiFi and off-road parking are provided - useful as Charlestown has limited street parking near the harbour during summer.

Charlestown Beach is directly below the harbour wall at 1.2km. Porthpean Beach, a quieter cove popular with local swimmers, is 1.3km in the other direction. The Eden Project is roughly 5 miles north-east near St Austell - an easy drive, or reachable on the Eden shuttle bus that runs from St Austell station in summer.

Carlyon Bay, a longer sandy beach popular for swimming, is 1.8km east - reachable by car in under five minutes. St Austell town centre, with its supermarkets and rail connections to the rest of Cornwall, is a mile north.

Best for: couples or solo travellers wanting a central base within walking distance of Charlestown's heritage harbour, local pubs, and two beaches. Less good for: guests with dogs (not accepted) or those needing family rooms with multiple beds.
