Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was truly amazing! The rooms were beautifully decorated, clean, and very comfortable, and I received exceptional service from the friendly staff. The location was perfect for exploring Cornwall, although some areas could use a bit of updating. The dining experience was mostly delightful, with a great selection at the buffet. Overall, it was a fantastic experience with some minor areas for improvement.
I had a delightful stay at the hotel with its wonderful views across the green surroundings and the spacious, modern rooms that boasted a lovely big king-size bed and a thoroughly well-equipped bathroom with a great shower. The stay was truly a blend of history and modern comfort, spanning over 100 years.
The hotel offers a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms could use some updating, but they are clean. The staff is accommodating, but could be more engaging. The location is great for enjoying the surroundings, but noise can be an issue. Dining options are limited, but the buffet was enjoyable.
