Wonderful Coastal Stay

amazing locationexcellent serviceconvenient car parkbeautiful views

I found the hotel's location to be amazing. The staff provided excellent service throughout my stay. I enjoyed the convenience of the guest-only car park, though the drive down to the cove was a little unnerving with narrow roads. The outdoor terrace offered beautiful views, a perfect spot to unwind in the sunshine.

The room decoration seemed a bit tired, possibly because it was a dog-friendly room.

Location

9/10

The hotel is ideally situated for coastal walks. Tintagel Castle is accessible within approximately 1 hour 20 minutes on foot. I could soak up the fine views along the way with my dog.

Service

delicious foodgreat viewcute staffdifficult turn

the food was delicious. i tried both the regular menu and the valentine's menu. the room had a great view. it was warm and the bed was very comfortable. also, the staff were very friendly and cute!

the car park was a bit difficult to get to. crowds of people made the turn up to the parking area tricky. it caused a scrape on the rental car. i wish management had explained the parking situation better.

damp roomearly deliveries

the room overlooked the sea, a supposed perk, but it reeked of dampness. and get this, they skipped cleaning it one day! i had to practically beg for fresh towels and coffee. also, those early morning deliveries were something else. nothing says 'relaxing getaway' like barrels crashing under my window at 6:30 am.
