Staff was very nice. Shower drain was stopped up and fan in the room made a loud noise. The double bed felt small, but we still overall enjoyed our stay. Food was excellent! Service was very nice, and we would stay here again, if we could get a little bit bigger bed. We thought the cleanliness of this facility went above and beyond!!

The staff was very welcoming, kind and helpful. The property is average. The room was hot and we were unable to open the windows to let in some cool air. We had wet clothing and were unable to figure out how to use the heated towel racks. The sheets were a bit scratchy and the pillows very uncomfortable.

Had a great time: highly recommend!
We had wonderful stay. Everyone was very helpful. Our room was lovely. The food was great: we came back for dinner on multiple occassions as well as lunch because of all the delicious options. It is the perfect location to easily explore the town, the hikes and the castle grounds.

Absolutely great place to stay. Room was extremely clean, large, with two bedrooms. Large living area with electric fireplace. Linens clean and fluffy, beds comfortable. Sunny and spacious. Bathroom had a large shower with excellent water pressure. Breakfast was included at the pub. The pub serves great food, too, steak and ale pie was top notch. Parking is included with the price and is directly outside. They'll let you park before check-in and after check-out so you can explore the area. Tintagel Castle and Merlin's Cave are only a few minutes' walk away! You can also explore the town from here, lots of shops and restaurants. Brilliant place to stay and highly, highly recommended. We will stay again if in the area.

Clean and comfy but no hot water
Very conveniently located in the heart of Tintagel with ample (free for guests) parking right next door. The room was clean with very comfy beds. The (in our case included) breakfast was plentiful with free coffee refills (a nice touch) though the sausages were best avoided (generic pub meat tubes). We also had dinner (only guests can pre-book a table) which was very tasty if (subjectively) slightly overpriced. The only real complaint was the lack of hot water. Returning from a glorious if damp autumn walk, a hot shower is something of a necessity. Finding no hot water at 5pm, we queried with the staff and a booster was put on with a somewhat resigned response that "lots of people must have been having a bath at the same time". 2 hours later and it was still cold. It was warmer by 10pm but the next morning (7:45) it was cold again, pointing to a system that simply isn't fit for purpose. As such, given that country romps are such a key attraction to this beautiful neck of the world, it's hard to recommend an establishment that can't offer guests hot water and handles the issue as beyond their control. A pity as the place has much going for it.

Good afternoon and thank you for taking the time to leave us a review, we are glad that your room was comfortable and that you enjoyed your stay in Tintagel. We are sorry that the hot water was insufficient for your needs-we aim to be eco friendly where possible and use solar energy to heat the water for the rooms above the Inn. On dull days we switch on a booster to top up the system, which needs to be done in good time to heat the water, particularly at times of high demand. Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention, it was a simple matter of staff error, which we have taken steps to ensure will not happen again.

Say it as it is
Room was clean and tidy. Breakfast was done on the cheap and the coffee left a lot to be desired. Staff seemed nice although some of them gave the impression of not happy at having to ‘put on a smiling face’. Place is located centrally with plenty of shops and walks around.

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We are sorry that you did not enjoy your breakfast with us. We use locally sourced quality butchers sausages, bacon, and free range eggs and each breakfast is cooked to order. We use the best Lavazza coffee beans in our top of the range coffee machine, which grinds the beans and heats the water to the correct temperature for each cup. We aim to resolve any issues at the time, and are sorry that we did not have the opportunity to do so on this occasion.

Stunning atmospheric location in Tinatagel
Lovely room (double with two singles) overlooking the Old Post Office. The pub sign did squeak all through the night as it was quite windy. Very clean and felt Covid rules well adhered to.
