Just spent a wonderful weekend at this property. Our hosts, Sam and her husband could not do enough for us. Breakfasts were buffet (continental) or a full Cornwall, cooked to order. Bacon/sausage/hash brown/beans/ tomato/mushrooms etc. Evening meals are offered Friday to Tuesdays. Again, thoroughly enjoyed the beef on the Friday night and the Thai curry on the Sunday.

An absolutely brilliant stay offering a fantastic room with great amenities. Sam was the perfect host during our stay which was relaxing, set in the perfect environment with stunning views of the bay. We faced a warm welcome on arrival and the room was spotless and comfortable offering everything we could possibly need throughout our stay. Breakfast was amazing offering a great choice and all delicious. We enjoyed a delicious meal on the second eve which was again superb. The guys cater for gluten and dairy free and will ensure you are looked after. Nothing was too much trouble and we will be returning. Thank you to everyone at the hotel for creating a great stay and fond memories.
