The Norway Inn

The Norway Inn is a 5-star B&B in the village of Perranarworthal, in the Fal valley between Truro and Falmouth. Dating from the early 19th century, it holds a 9.0 rating from 476 reviews on Booking.com - with a comfort score of 9.5 and more repeat guests than most comparable properties on the platform.

Rooms come with flat-screen TVs, tea and coffee facilities, and comfortable beds that guests specifically flag in reviews. EV charging is available on site, alongside accessible facilities, free WiFi, and free private parking. Breakfast runs to continental and full English. The on-site restaurant serves home-cooked meals built around local produce - fish, game, lamb, and duck all feature - and the bar carries a range of real ales. Check-in opens at 14:00, check-out by 11:00.

The inn sits in wooded Fal valley countryside, a quieter base than either city without sacrificing access. Perranwell station on the Falmouth Branch Line is in the village, giving rail connections to both Truro (about 5 miles north) and Falmouth (about 5 miles south) without needing a car. Trelissick Garden, a National Trust property overlooking the Fal Estuary, is about 3 miles east. The Carrick Roads - the world's third-largest natural harbour - is accessible from several points nearby, and Castle Beach in Falmouth is around 5 miles south.

**Best for:** couples or solo travellers wanting a quiet countryside inn with good food and easy access to both Truro and Falmouth; anyone who prefers train travel. **Less good for:** families needing beach access within walking distance, or groups wanting self-catering flexibility.
