Situated in the historic and much sought after area of
Chapel Street in Penzance, The Chocolate House, once a chocolate shop
& tea Rooms, offers huge character and charm throughout.
The Chocolate House, built in the 1700's, lies in the heart
of Chapel Street mixed in between an eclectic mix of dwelling houses,
historical buildings, bistros, bookshops and the beautiful St Mary's Church
can be seen from the front of the house.
Chapel Street, once home to Maria Branwell mother to the
Bronte sisters, is steeped in history with character and charm apparent
in its architecture and arts culture. The Egyptian House, a geological
Museum built by Penzance Mineralogist Jon Lavin in 1836, is a must see,
as is St Marys Church, a beautiful and inspiring piece of architecture,
said to date back to the 13th century and later being extended in the
17th and 18th Century.
The harbour, promenade - with its large art deco open air
swimming baths - and the seafront are a two minute walk away. Just down
from Chapel Street are Quay Street and the harbour front where you will
find an array of water based activities from fishing trips, diving opportunities
to day trips by boat to the beautiful Isle of Scilly. The Dolphin Tavern
in Quay Street is rumoured to be one of the most haunted pubs in Cornwall!
Deceptively spacious and recently renovated to a high standard,
the owners have retained and lovingly restored much of the original character
whilst adding modern day luxuries' such as under floor & central heating,
gas stove and some double glazed wooden sash windows.
Due to the quirks of the house, it may not be suitable
for those with mobility difficulties as the stairs leading to the second
floor bedroom are narrow and steep.
