About Rockleigh Place

Rockleigh Place is a guesthouse built around a mix of suites and apartments, giving it a more spacious, self-contained feel than a typical bed and breakfast. Its garden, complete with a gazebo, gives the place a relaxed, homely character, with outdoor seating and a picnic area for guests who want to spend time outside rather than in.

Rooms come with en-suite bathrooms, air conditioning and drinks provided, and family rooms are available for those travelling with children, who are also catered for with kids' meals at breakfast. Free WiFi runs throughout, and practical extras include an electric vehicle charge point, luggage storage, laundry service, and free on-site parking, along with meeting rooms and business services for those combining work with a stay in Cornwall.

The location in St Austell makes it a straightforward base for exploring the Eden Project, the Lost Gardens and the surrounding coastline, and there's plenty on the doorstep besides: walking routes, golf, fishing and watersports, plus pubs, restaurants and entertainment nearby for evenings out. It's a guesthouse geared towards guests who want comfort and convenience without unnecessary fuss.

Stayed here for 1 night to visit the lost gardens of Heligan. It is a beautiful house, with lovely gardens and a rooftop terrace where you can sit and enjoy the views (covered as well as open so can sit in all weathers). House and rooms are immaculate and clean, our room was lower floor and lovely and cool. Fab shower, tea/coffee facilities and a TV which had lots of channels you could actually access. Beds so comfy and different pillows for comfort. Towels, shower gel, hairdryer all provided and a little fridge for milk, snacks etc. Hosts Natalia & Igor were welcoming and helpful - I asked for a vegan breakfast and they were more than happy to provide this as well as an alternative milk for my room and breakfast. Would highly recommend this lovely gem of a hotel to stay at.

We stayed in this lovely hotel for 3 nights and we had a wonderful stay. The rooms were clean, brilliantly maintained and absolutely delightful. With a lot of natural light coming, but also with good blinds to have a good night sleep. The insulation was also top notch. Our trip coincided with the horrible heat weave of June 2026 and both rooms stayed cool with just a little help from the A/C unit. The beds were very comfortable and the bathroom spotless and with good water pressure as well as good water temperature. The breakfast was delicious as well as very well presented. The house also has a delightful garden as well as a lovely terrace. The house's wifi was fast and provided a strong signal. One of us had to spend some time working and having online meetings and all could be done with no connectivity problems at all. It is located really close to the Eden Project, a short drive from the Secret Gardens of Heligan and also close to some lovely towns like Charlestown, where you can find several great places for having lunch or dinner. And last but not least, the hosts Natalia an Igor were lovely and ready to help with every little detail. We couldn't have asked for more, and absolutely delightful stay worth recommending to anyone that seeks accommodation in Cornwall, specially if you want to visit the Eden Projector the Secret Gardens of Heligan. I cannot recommend this place enough!! Thanks a lot Natalia an Igor :)
