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.

We stayed at this lovely hotel with an amazing view for 4 nights last week.
The view over Mevagissey Bay is phenomenal! The hosts, Sam and Roy, are amazing.
Nothing is too much trouble and I witnessed them on a couple of occasions going well above and beyond what you would expect.
(They know what I am referring to and I respect them immensely for what they did).
The hotel itself is lovely with nice clean rooms, a great lounging area with that view and a wonderful friendly, relaxing atmosphere. The food is really good, especially for the price.
I must repeat what fantastic hosts they are. Sam will suggest places to visit, places to eat and anything else that you need help with. Roy is just a pleasure to talk to, especially regarding rugby.
We will definitely be returning and wish them every success in the future.

The hotel was set in a lovely area with a fantastic view of the harbour. The staff were incredibly friendly without trying too hard at the same time, especially Sam who answered all of our requests. The breakfast was also exceptional and we now regret not eating an evening meal there which was offered although you do have to book early to get what you want.
Overall its a great place to stay and I would recommend it to visitors.

Three night stay in exceptional hotel

Lovely hotel situated at the top of a steep hill overlooking the bay. The views are to die for making the short walk from Mevagissey, well worth it. There is a lovely path through gardens which takes the steepness out of the hill and plenty of seats along the way. Arrival at the hotel was exceptional, was able to park the car outside the hotel.Arrived a little early, which was no problem as we were met by Sam who offered us a nice cold drink and was able to sit on the terrace admiring the views. Sam took us to our room, after giving us a tour of the dining room, bar and lounge, which was overlooking the bay, where we were lucky enough to see dolphins in the bay. Room was exceptionally clean and modern, newly refurbished and stunning views. Coffee machine, tea making facilities. Bottle of water and cookies was also a nice touch. Bathroom was exceptionally clean with lovely walk-in shower. Comfortable bed which provided a restful night sleep. Food was exceptional stayed on a bed and breakfast basis arriving on a Sunday with evening meal optional on Sunday and Monday of our stay. Evening meal was freshly cooked with a nice choice available and again lovely views of the bay. Breakfast was also freshly cooked with a great choice. Food was stunning and service was exceptional. Had a good free internet access. There was lots of information available for taxis and local attractions. Highly recommend this small and friendly hotel. Thank you Sam, Roy and staff for a wonderful stay.

We stayed for 3 nights. Food option was minimal, cooked breakfast was rather small with one option unavailable was told the chef burnt it and had to be completely thrown away then next day no Delivery. They don’t give you time they constantly come over to remove plates/bowls and cutlery that aren’t being used. You feel rushed to eat and go. The bed comfort wasn’t great for me the bed was on the hard side. Welcoming was lovely. Walls are super thin in the rooms I could hear someone down the corridor snoring, conversations within the rooms and even conversations from the main atrium. Rooms are pretty small. We didn’t have main course dinner as we felt we would be rushed and the potion would also be small just like breakfast. There’s a very minimal option to choose from. Overall the experience was okay but I wouldn’t stay there myself personally. I feel the hotel is based more for older people.

Evening meals (currently) Friday Saturday Sunday ( no comment as not there then) Breakfast excellent, and tea (extra) on balcony was great for view

Lttle gem with a world-class view

This small (11 rooms) property is more an enhanced B&B than a hotel but lifted far out of what would normally be expected by impeccable personal service from John and Elleke and amazing views of Mevagissey Bay and the picturesque harbour. Handy location for visiting various Cornwall attractions including the Eden Project and the Lost Gardens of Heligan. If you’re driving, the narrow, twisty (and sometimes steep) local lanes require full attention but that’s the only caveat. Recommended.

Unacceptable dark and dingy en-suite

Honestly, I haven’t seen a bathroom like the en-suite in our room since the 80’s. John and Elica are a nice couple but they have let themselves down. The hand basin had a crack in it and wallpaper was peeling off the wall. It was generally tired and not conducive to the room rate charged. We were on a road trip and this was the only blot on an otherwise enjoyable trip. Frankly, room 6 should not be used until this is rectified. Honestly, as far as condition of the room is concerned, this is the worst B&B we have stayed in for some time. Very disappointed
