Denise and Clive are the perfect hosts. Old Temperance House is a very welcoming and immaculate home. The accomodation is excellent and the food absolutely superb. St.Keverne is a great village, with an excellent restaurant and two good pubs. Ideally located for exploring West Cornwall, where there is lots to see. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will happily return.... More

An extremely well presented guest house. My room was clean and bright with a comfortable bed. I enjoyed an excellent breakfast, ample supplies of tea etc in the room, and most charming hosts. I am moving to the area and was much encouraged by Clive. I thoroughly recommend this establishment having stayed in others in the vicinity.

Very helpful and friendly couple in Denise & Clive! We got in early to change before going to a local wedding. The room was small but beautifully presented and the bathroom was luxurious with new M&S toiletries and fabulous towels. Nice touches included padded coathangers and tea making facilities (with Kitkats!!) and the breakfast included 3 types of sausage -... More

We spent 2 memorable nights here last week. The accomodation is first class and the breakfasts were, as good as, or better than those in 5 star hotels. The hospitality shown us by Clive and Denise was warm & welcoming. An experience not to be missed.

My third year diving in Porthkerris and staying in Old Temperance house, St Keverne. The rooms were beautiful and clean as always and the breakfasts are fantastic. Clive and Denise made every effort to our stay as good as it could be, with hangers for my dive kit in the garage and early breakfasts.
