The Cornwall Hotel Spa & Estate

The Cornwall Hotel Spa & Estate

10/10 Excellent
"We had an excellent few days at this hotel. We stayed in a superior double room. It was very spacious , with a large bathroom and a balcony overlooking the grounds. It was useful having a chilled cabinet and other facilities such as an iron and ironing board. Tea bags , coffee, water and biscuits were replenished daily and the toiletries were of a nice quality. We ate 4 times at the hotel as the food was so good. They had a good range of gluten free options and this was one of the reasons we chose to stay here ( I checked out the menu pre - stay). We felt the prices were a good price considering the high quality of the food. The staff were friendly and helpful. We definitely would stay here again."

10/10 Excellent
"There was no information pack in the room, which we consider to be essential. Because of this, we had no idea what check-out time was in the morning. We checked on-line and there were two different times of 10.30 and 11.00, depending on what site you looked at. In addition, a lovely breakfast menu was provided in the room, but no indication of what time breakfast was served. These are only small issues, in what was otherwise a fabulous stay. The room and facilities were first class and were great value for money"
