Budock Vean Hotel

I found this superb hotel on Trip Advisor. I had booked for 4 nights and was fortunate to be upgraded to a Signature room, with a wonderful view of the golf course and grounds. The room is very spacious with a 6ft bed, beautiful linen and covers. Comfy bed and pillows. Wonderful thick curtains. The sparkling clean bathroom and separate toilet were newly fitted and spotlessly clean. Lots of white fluffy towels and 2 bathrobes/slippers. There were beautiful Elemis products to use. Large selection of tea and coffee supplied in the room. It was special to be able to swim in the stunning pool, every morning, mostly on my own, followed by a sauna or foamy hot tub outside in the Autumn sunshine.

This is a very comfortable hotel. The food is excellent!! All the staff are courteous and helpful. The beds are very comfortable, and the en-suites are modern! We have had several mini breaks here over the last couple of years and cannot fault anything! Would highly recommend a stay here.

I stayed overnight as a solo guest on a weekend. I felt completely safe whilst at the hotel at all times. I opted to have room service in my room as I wanted some peace and quiet! I did have to go to reception to find out what menu I could choose from but they were helpful and took my order whilst i was there. The food was absolutely delicious, one of the best meals I had ever eaten. I will say however that the portion sizes were small and I was pretty much hungry the entire duration of my stay. The room was spacious and relatively clean. The bathroom was modern and light. I was really impressed by the fact the hotel room was actually warm as I usually find them to be cold upon entry. The hotel was extremely quiet at night and I enjoyed looking over the golf course as the sun set. The breakfast menu was quite limited in my opinion. It was basically cereal, yoghurt, croissants and hot cooked breakfast, which again was nothing extensive. I asked for a plate of bacon, tomatoes, sausage and potatoes and literally recieved a plate of one of each item.. But it was all cooked thoroughly and again was very tasty and well seasoned. Although I didn't ask for much during my stay, I got the impression that nothing was too much to ask for and every staff member I came across were polite and pleasant.

This is such a lovely hotel. We have visited many times and love the fact that the same enthusiastic staff are there year after year. We always feel very welcome and let pled after. Dinner is reliably good with the emphasis on local seafood and fish. Soups and desserts are very good too. Not many places serve such a good breakfast- the usual buffet of cereals and fruit but then freshly cooked to order hot choices - full English, kippers, porridge, etc. it’s really rare to find this in a hotel.

Have been to hotel may times with great food, room and very helpfull staff, on this occassion no different. Met many of the older members of staff who have been at the hotel for a long time and their experience has been passed onto new staff. Great place to stay and unwind with many sports included but the golf is the best.

Took up special October offer and so pleased we did as this was our favourite hotel years ago where we stayed annually for 14 years. Upgraded on arrival, overlooked golf course, separate bathroom and toilet, super comfy bed, plenty of storage. Attentive staff, dinner and breakfast best for ages, at last hot food after disappointing stays with other local hotels. Dining room completely changed but lacking the charm it used to have. Miss the desert and cheese trolleys. Excellent service, use of pool and hot tub but wish table tennis hadn't been moved outside. Lovely stroll down to creek where new cafe facilities installed, good idea. Would certainly return.

Stayed for 3 nights and had booked 2 standard rooms - both rooms were upgraded on check in which was a lovely surprise and were immaculately maintained throughout our visit. We loved the breakfasts - first rate quality ingrediants and fried bread too which you are lucky to get these days elsewhere ! Dinner quality was excellent on the whole, however seemed a bit quieter than our last visit 6 years ago and there was no atmosphere in the dining room - maybe some background music would be appropriate. Also no wine waiter so had to serve ourselves - which I appreciate was no hardhship but would have expected one of the staff to be able to carry out this activity. Overall a lovely stay, lovely staff and will return - hope that if the hotel is sold it is maintained as is as there are fewer hotels left which present this old world charm. Only improvement I'd suggest is the bedroom doors are changed - not sure why they were not when many of the rooms were upgraded - they look cheap and obviously old - the old fashioned key is of a bygone era that even I can live without!

We have just return from a four night stay. The weather was at its best, lovely late summer sun and really fresh air. The meals were excellent and the variety impressive, particularly dinner. Service was at its usual best. We played golf on two days which was great fun. Have already booked again for next year.

Dirty disgusting unhygienic Spa!!! No sun loungers for booked spa days! Had to wait to get one! Not enough cushions for sun loungers and the ones we could find available were dirty, moldy and damaged! Grate around hot tub broken and dangerous! I made staff aware on a previous visit, no repairs had taken place, yet hot tub still in Use! Dirty, moldy, smelly carpet surrounding the pool!!!!!! Dirty, rusty doors and windows! Dirty sauna ! Pool water green tinged! Pool stairs unsteady! Impossible to relax in this spa !! Manager uninterested!! Spa receptionist‘Tasha’ helpful and professional , only staff member that was! My advice avoid this spa at all costs!!!
