stunning location and easy access to South Coast Path. Rooms were adequate for our needs and liked the common spaces to relax. Terrace restaurant restful with the incredible view.

it’s near the sea, the view is fantastic. also near the public foot path where you can go hiking along the coast line

Everything, staying here was a lovely experience. The room had updated amenities, comfortable beds & a great view. The breakfast & restaurant food was fresh, tasty & inventive. It’s one of the best hotel breakfast I’ve had yet! Don’t miss the pancakes with honey, yogurt & berries. The many seating areas in the garden provided relaxation with open views of the ocean. Easy access to the cove beach & path make it perfect for exploring Kynance Cove, Lizard Point & Cadgwith. The staff was friendly & helpful & I would definitely return for another visit!

The property is in a superb position above a beautiful bay. There are lots of places to sit outside & take in the view. There was an electric car charging point.

Beautiful historic building in gorgeous location. Food was amazing

Food was generally excellent and novel. Location on the clifftop with far reaching views was superb. Plenty of rooms to sit in, interesting maps and pictures on the walls, easy parking.

Loved the location. The views do not disappoint, we made sure we spent at least an hour, sat on the patio or decking just looking out to the coast. The gardens are well kept and the flowers are so beautiful. The breakfast was lovely and hot, and as we booked for two nights we were able to eat at The Terrace and the Fallowfields restaurant. We loved both menus, but if you happen to be celebrating, the Fallowfields is extra special. The bedroom & ensuite was tidy and clean and because we choose a sea view room, we had the pleasure of waking up to the amazing view. The Costal Path is practically on the doorstep so once we parked the car on arrival, we had no need to drive anywhere until the day we left.

The location of this hotel is fantastic with superb panoramic views of the sea. The staff are very friendly and obliging.

Location is amazing and the food was great. Staff were all extremely helpful and doing a great job in difficult circumstances

Wonderful location for people who like to enjoy long-distance walks with unspoiled nature views. It also for people who need to have a rest from busy city life and enjoy the countryside peace.
