There are innkeepers and then there are Innkeepers. Terry and Paul are two of best that we have had the good fortune to meet at the dozens of B & B’s we’ve stayed at over the years.

We decided to visit St Ives to celebrate a special birthday and in the process, arrive by a special means of transport - by our two feet, having walked the coast path from Plymouth. Why Shun Lee? We had read such good reports of this hotel in Trip Advisor and thought it would make an ideal choice. We were right.... More
