    We noticed a few things that could do with a bit of tlc. Window frames plus shower and sink drainage to name two.

    A comfortable character full place to stay. Our room was spacious and quiet. We were pampered at breakfast. Bike storage was excellent.

    Our room (18) overlooked a terrace where people can sit and it detracted from our privacy. Not too much of an issue as we were mostly out. But will request a different room if offered this one again

    Everything - beautiful location/building/peaceful Great breakfast Wonderful staff

    The staff were lovely, the room was spotlessly clean and the food was amazing and good value for money. The hotel was surrounded by beautiful gardens and, although it's near a main road, it sits on a hill at the end of a winding drive with mature trees in the garden, so even on the verandah you aren't really aware of the road and traffic.

    It was a great experience for the both of us, the charm and architecture of the old church was just as we had imagined, the rooms where perfect just what we needed. The restaurant was just as perfect as was all of the staff, will recommend the hotel to family and friends.

    I think there may have been elephants in the room above us as there was a lot of loud stomping around early in the morning (obviously not the fault of the hotel and sadly something to be expected from selfish and inconsiderate guests).

    The staff were excellent; cheerful, helpful and understanding of what makes a hotel stay comfortable. The building is a great example of an old building repurposed but with a touch of luxury. Breakfast provided a good variety of great tasty food

    A beautiful hotel in a great location for exploring Cornwall. Our room was really comfortable with a lovely view over the gardens, comfortable bed, and the best bathroom with an excellent shower. Breakfast was delightful, plated to order and served by friendly staff. The staff at reception were all so welcoming and helpful.

    We enjoyed 3 nights in this wonderful hotel.We upgraded our room to a junior suit for the bathtub and we did not regret it!As the weather was not the best in February,having a bathtub as well as an ample shower really helped.No noise and close to the carpark was ideal too.Wonderful breakfast every day as well as dinner. We were delighted with our stay as the hotel is really something to remember.We will be back.

    • Stayed 1 night

    I would not like to stay in this particular room again as I like to sleep with a window open and it is located on a ground floor therefore slept with window closed as I was alone. So room was a bit stuffy.

    Room was spacious, clean and comfortable. A little dark and would think it needs a bit more lighting only due to the limited light from outside due to trees. Otherwise bathroom was very large, renovated and everything was wonderful. Breakfast was great, staff friendly, (only one staff member I think was the manager dark haired chap needs to learn to smile :) for guests, life is too serious as it is) the guy that greeted me was very friendly.
