Love this hotel, this is our second stay. Its been done to a very high standard and the staff are great. The bar is a really nice environment serving great cocktail. The food in the restaurant is delicious. The gym is very well equipped and the Bodmin Jail tour is intersting. The only thing i didnt like were the plastic flowers in the pulpits in the restaurant 😊

Lovely hotel. Staff were really helpful and friendly. The room was very clean and the bathroom was very luxurious. The evening meal was okay but my husband’s dish tasted quite bland, considering the prices - we expected slightly better quality. We really enjoyed the history and novelty of the hotel. The free mini bar was a nice touch.

Immensely impressive restoration of one of Britain's iconic buildings. The food in the restaurant was amongst the best I have tasted, however, although very friendly and attentive, the staff in the Restuarant would benefit from more training. The EV charging points were most welcome but were inconsistent and failed regularly. Loved the atmosphere generated by the property and would stay again if in the area
