Would recommend
We stayed for one night en route to a week’s holiday in Cornwall. We found the staff to be friendly and helpful, making sure our stay was a good one. We had reserved a table for our evening meal (along with our dog) and thoroughly enjoyed the food.

Nice place to stay
Nice place for a short stay. Lovely setting and friendly staff. Bed was hard but otherwise the room was excellent. Our only issue was the guests and/or staff smoking outside directly under our room. With no air conditioning we had to keep the window open.

Dear Serena, Thank you for your feedback, we will definitely create a designated smoking area away from the rooms. The beds will be replaces in the near future, we hope you will have a better sleep on your next visit. Regards, Team Greyhound

Great place with lovely people
The new owners of the Greyhound Inn had only taken over on the 1st of August we arrived on the 4th and while there were obviously a few little hiccups with the handover Veranik and her husband together with the staff made us more than welcome and nothing was too much trouble for them. The food was good both the breakfast and the evening meals. The Inn is ideally suited as a base with so many attractions in the area including several national trust houses. Most enjoyable we will definitely go back there.

Hotel not available
The markings above do not really relate to the hotel but rather reflect the performance of Expedia. When we arrived at the hotel we found that it had been taken over the previous day and accomodation was not available. The new people had tried to contact us without success (it seems that Expedia gave them the wrong phone number). They were very helpful and apologetic and helped to find alternative accomodation albeit at much increased cost. We were very disapppointed as we had stayed there before and it was excellent. The performance of Expedia was dreadful; why did they not inform us of the problem. Oue email address was available.

Good pub B&B
Overall good value stay, not much to do around hotel of an evening but beer/food onsite perfectly acceptable. Friendly staff and comfy rooms, if a little dated now.

A Perfect Venue
A perfect venue. The service was excellent and the food was good. Although we only stayed for one night we will certainly return as it will be a good base to explore the local area. We liked the character of the place and found our room very comfortable.

Lovely stay, very welcoming
We had a very enjoyable two night weekend stay, where everyone was very friendly and welcoming. Our room was very comfortable with everything we needed and the full english breakfast was very tasty! We will certainly look to visit again soon.

A welcome break down to Cornwall
We picked this hotel due to its location and it had good reviews. The bedroom was huge and it had everything we needed. We ate in the pub at night and thoroughly enjoyed our meal. I am coeliac and I enjoyed my breakfast too, but next time I’ll give them more warning for gluten free bread as I forgot mine. Overall a lovely stay and will definitely be stopping there again. The photo is a view from the breakfast area - just lovely 😊
