Hotels with a Wedding Venue in Tintagel

Great place location and spectacular views

I’m not saying my stay at this hotel was chaotic, but I’m fairly sure I experienced a full escape room challenge before I even got inside. On arrival, I wasn’t able to check in and was left standing outside for a solid 15 minutes, which really gave me time to reflect on my life choices—and the weather. Eventually, I made it in, only to discover that the bedroom door latch didn’t actually lock. No problem though, because the solution involved the staff member calling her husband, who arrived armed with a drill and screwdriver like some sort of emergency DIY superhero. Nothing says “relaxing stay” quite like impromptu home repairs. The excitement didn’t stop there. The shower flooded, turning the bathroom into a paddling pool (sadly, no inflatable included). The bedside lamp wasn’t charged either, so mood lighting was replaced with “sit in the dark and think about things.” And finally, breakfast. You’re asked to pre-order using a form—very organised in theory—except for the minor detail that no pen is provided. I can only assume interpretive dance is an acceptable alternative. All in all, it was less “hotel stay” and more “unexpected adventure weekend.” Would I return? Only if I needed material for a comedy routine.

I would class this hotel as ‘olde worlde’….. So anyone wanting modern it probably isn’t for you. Lots of interesting passages and stairs, and flagstone floors add to the atmosphere. Shower and bathroom very clean, TV, excellant, tea and coffee available in rooms. Breakfast ok, I wouldn’t say outstanding. Rather solid scrambled egg, bacon had obviously been cooked a little while and was tough. Coffee, brought in a jug was always lukewarm warm by the time I got to it! Evening menu very restricted., so I only had two dinners out of four. The staff were pleasant, but seemed a bit disorganised on occasions. I wouldn’t stay again, despite it being very easy to access Glorious Trebarwith Strand.
