This hotel is a 1950s building and it looks like one! There are prettier hotels in Cornwall but once you get over the ugliness the benefits to a stay here far outweigh that initial feeling that you’ve booked into a holiday park.
I would avoid the standard rooms over the car park. They are a bit noisy but the actual room was great, with good bathroom facilities and really comfy beds. My tricky teen was very happy and enjoyed casting Netflix to the TV.
The outdoor pool was also very teen friendly and the indoor pool was a big hit too. Easy to collect towels from the pool reception area and good changing facilities.
The bar area was always quite quiet and we could find places to sit, mocktails were teen friendly and the cocktail choice was also good.
Teen enjoyed the pool table and the younger children seemed to be making good use of the games room. We particularly enjoyed listening to the Cornish storytelling (from a safe teen distance of course…)
We did eat at the hotel. Breakfast was busy and the service seemed a little stretched. Food was fantastic. Great selection of fruit, cereal and bakery produce. We also enjoyed the additional options which were £6 each.
There were plenty of options at the beach and we strolled down every day to sample something different.
The walk to the beach is steep and across sand, although there is an alternative path over the main rd and down the hill. The hotel is on the costal path and we enjoyed walks from the hotel each day.
