Lostwithiel Hotel Golf & Country Club  

The owner and staff were very friendly and the service was therefore good. The golf facilities are good, though not a "golf resort". The chef was good and the food was of a good standard - locally sourced and fresh not frozen. The prices were very reasonable. It is quite near to the Eden Project, which was our main reason for visiting.

We were early season and the food selection was a little restricted by items running out. The menu in the rooms didn't match the menu in the bar or restaurant. However the chef produced an excellent alternative fish meal for my wife when the menu options were absent. The rooms are in separate buildings which means a walk for breakfast. Not a problem in good weather but a bit of a handicap in February!

A nice quiet secluded setting. Very scenic. The rooms were a nice size and very comfortable.

Did not rate breakfast. English breakfast was a bit sparce ie a quarter slice of fried bread, no beans, still felt hungry after eating. No hot water in the morning to get a wash.

Friendly Staff, excellent and tasty food, confortable room. Well placed for all the places that we wanted to visit.

Efficient and friendly management and staff. Good food and sensible menus. Very good location for the type of holiday we wanted.

Positives: - very nice location, views to the woods, castle - quiet location, very romantic, fresh air - very characteristic hotel, cottages - friendly staff - swimming pool, gym, golf facility - I have visited many places in the UK, but this place has definately the most starry sky I have ever seen in the UK

Negatives: - couple of spider nets in the room, couple of hair in the bath - English breakfast- there was no black pudding, hashbrowns, one day there were no mushrooms, other day no baked beans and one day we got burnt toasts

The location was quiet but within easy reach of the coast, pubs, places to visit and walks. We don't play golf but we did use the swimming pool.

Good location for Heligan, Lanhydrock, Eden and Fowey

A little shabby, needs some investment.

Wonderful countryside - very quiet - close to all the points of interest (Eden - Heligan etc) we wanted to see. Very friendly staff. Would stay here again. But we both really enjoyed our stay except for the weather !!!.

Only one negative need a higher standard of sound proofing in the room (we were staying in the stable complex) it was quiet when we stayed but could imagine if it was busy with noiser people it might have been a problem.

The bath room needed to be refurbished.

Very basic facilities, needs better sound proofing between rooms, could benifit from a more up to date look for rooms and bar etc.

Disappointing food. Very basci microwave stuff. Room a bit tatty.

We were very impressed with the barman who was also the waiter. He had an excellent attitude and was very helpful and obliging. My wife is allergic to eggs which often causes problems but he quickly got all the answers we needed. Seeing as he had a bar full of golfers and still managed to wait on us in another room was very praiseworthy. Good on him ! We also thought the hotel notes were very well and amusingly written, Spencer Holtom

The bright blue light on the tv was very irritating after we turned out the lights. I had to throw a shirt over the set. There should be instructions as to how to turn off the tv at the mains, a small notice would suffice. Otherwise we could not fault the delightful hotel, Spencer Holtom
