The lady owner who welcomed us is a delight. She was very friendly and helpful. Our view was superb - the landscape of Cornwall is magnificent. On the whole the room was perfect. However two desperately disappointing problems ruined our stay: the hot water ran out early evening after one shower - inexcusable. And the breakfast was quite simply the worst hotel breakfast we have ever experienced in 50 years of regular travel. The ordered hard boiled egg was runny. The watery cold scrambled eggs had been microwaved - inedible. The kipper came from a frozen packet. The toast for the eggs were badly undercooked, the ordered side toast overcooked and out of a packet. The grapefruit segments were tinned. All in all a disaster. Such a pity considering the other lovely elements including its perfect setting. Was Covid a factor/excise re breakfast - no! That aspect of our stay was expertly handled. Clean safe efficient and so friendly. Recommended in the past for its breakfast online, our experience was a major disappointment. Maybe a glitch?
