Old House Bed and Breakfast offers you comfortable rooms and good food in a relaxed, atmospheric Georgian property. We aim to make you feel welcome in informal surroundings.

Old House is situated near the centre of Launceston (just off the A30) and is a perfect base from which to explore Cornwall and Devon. Your choice is wide and varied; whether you choose to discover the rugged beauty of Bodmin Moor and Dartmoor, or visit one of the many pretty fishing villages or gorgeous beaches, you will not be disappointed. Keen gardeners will be spoilt for choice as there are many beautiful gardens to take your breath away.

Launceston is the Ancient Capital of and acknowledged gateway to Cornwall and sits in an area of considerable beauty and charm with easy access to both North and South Coasts as well as to the cities of Exeter, Plymouth and Truro.

Although we do not provide evening meals, Launceston has many places to eat, from Cajun, Indian and Italian through to English brasseries, pubs, cafés and traditional fish and chip shops, all of a high standard.

As the property is a listed Georgian building, we regret we are unable to provide wheelchair access (please see our access statement).

Our aim is to make your stay with us as relaxed and comfortable as possible - if you have any specific requirements please do not hesitate to contact us and we will do our best to accommodate you.

Breakfast
Our meat is produced locally and bought at our famous local butchers Philip Warren & Son and Bray Farm Shop. The eggs are local, fresh and free range. The apple juice is produced locally with apples from small private orchards. I’m afraid the oranges are not local, but the orange juice is of excellent quality and conserves are mainly homemade. We make fresh bread on the premises every day.
