Bedruthan Hotel and Spa

Bedruthan Hotel and Spa

10/10 Excellent
"Had a wonderful stay for 3 nights in August. The hotel is beautifully located over looking a beautiful large sandy beach. Although there were many kids staying, it didn’t feel over run (other than a few overzealous dads throwing their small kinds over their heads in the indoor pool, which was a little unnerving)! The hotel was built in 1959 and looks a bit dated from the outside. However, inside it has been tastefully refurbished, though in keeping, and the facilities very good were up to spec. The bedroom was sizeable with a comfortable super kind bed and the walk-in wet room had two powerful showers and was lovely. Would have appreciated a shelf for toiletries and cosmetics and had to put those on the floor. We loved the refill stations for milk tea bags, coffee, water etc. which you took back to your room. Breakfast was a feast! Really one of the best I’ve ever had. A wide selection of continental meats. Cheeses, breads, fruits, cereals, compotes, yogurts etc. A full cooked breakfast is extra but not too expensive. We had a. Inclusive package, including car parking and a general spa package. The complimentary daily wellness wake up class at 8am in the studio over looking the sea was wonderful. Without exception the staff were polite, knowledgeable, kind and helpful. The beach walk is quite a climb coming back but well worth it. We were invited to use the facilities at the sister hotel nearby, namely The Scarlet Hotel. It’s newer and is adults only."

10/10 Excellent
"The hotel was pretty good in general. Room was fine: very clean. Slightly old-school grandparent vibe instead of funky Newquay surfer vibe, and some of the fittings were slightly run down if you looked closely, but that's being really critical. Breakfast was excellent with unusually good veggie choices. Staff were helpful. The beach location was dramatic. It was quite pricey but I suppose that's the cost when staying in Newquay last minute during school holidays."

"Lovely country inn - The owners and staff very nice and accomodating. Room was clean just a little dated, and the general areas could do with a refresh. Bed was really comfortable which enabled a great sleep. Breakfast was excellent- freshly cooked, so much choice and more if required-appreciated a second pot of tea to take outside and sit on the outdoor sofa. Evening meals were lovely - just make sure you let them know as they may close the dining room early. The bowling was great fun when the rain arrived!! A 2 minute walk down a reasonable hill to the bus stop at Alexander Court if going to airport/Newquay town and another minute to the beach. A great little getaway - I would definitely return."
