Trenython Manor

Great cottage, had everything we needed for our stay. Would definitely book again.

Service was excellent especially with the young ladies in the restaurant. Breakfast and evening Food was very good.

booked this hotel for our 46th wedding anniversary after seeing the write ups on the quality of the food and hotel. The hotel write up says “wake up to sea views and a hearty breakfast included on both mornings of your stay, tuck into the continental buffet or order cooked items from the menu, will it be full Cornish or eggs Benedict? Our talented chefs will create a three course dinner for you to enjoy in the intimate oak panelled Dakota restaurant also included in one night of your stay expect delicious dishes where local and seasonal ingredients shine” I must point out that this hotel was taken over in September 2024 and I think most of the information on their website is related to the previous owners the delicious food was not forthcoming we had booked that romantic weekend which included rose petals in the room, chocolate bottle of Bubbly & breakfast on both nights with three course dinner on 1st night The breakfast was most disappointing I've never seen such a bland looking full English in all my life as per the photograph and it was all cold and I ordered it with the eggs poached to be on toast so the yoke would seep into the toast and my wife ordered egg Benedict, both our eggs came up solid! The evening meal which again nothing related to previous write ups on the hotel. The main courses on offer were pasta arrabiata, sirloin steak but that was an additional £10, duck with noodles and hoisin sauce, cheeseburger and fish and chips. The duck and noodles came up with a duck leg on top! Whenever I've had that in any other high class restaurants the duck always comes up shredded in the noodles not dumped on the top. The waitress we had who's now gone off to Bali was outstanding, the maitre-d' for breakfast and in general I must say was very poor. While staying you could NOT run up a TAB! Every time we ordered a beer, wine or anything you have to pay at time of ordering.

Comfortable hotel, very spacious superior room with terrace, bathroom very modern. Friendly and helpful receptionists. An attractive historic building. Breakfasts plentiful. Excellent spa, ladies on duty very friendly and no problem to extend booking to 2 hours. Attention to detail needs improving eg shampoo and shower gels not replenished, we had to ask for them; no box of tissues in the room; in the walk-in shower there needs to be a small ledge to put soap and shampoo instead of crouching on the floor.

The hotel looks impressive in photos, but the reality is different upon arrival. The hotel feels quite worn and in need of maintenance. Our room was on the smaller side and showed big signs of age, with some areas looking very tired. A fresh coat of paint could easily improve the space but little effort is made to Improve anything. It’s important to note that the spa is quite small and requires pre-booking in one-hour time slots. When we asked about this ahead of our stay, we were told there were no such restrictions. However, upon arrival, it was clear that pre-booking was required, as there were signs at both the reception and on the spa door. I think it's important the hotel make this clear on their website and any third party sites they use to advertise. Additionally, we were informed that breakfast had to be booked the night before, which felt a bit inconvenient. I had emailed the manager for clarification about the spa policies before our stay, as getting in touch by phone seemed difficult, but unfortunately, I never received a response. The breakfast was mediocre, one of the staff touching the food by hand straight after moving around tables and chairs. We wouldn't stay at the hotel again or recommend it to others. It was very disappointing. Your money is best spent elsewhere.

Run on a shoe string. Classic room up 5 flights of stairs, no lift in the building.The room was big enough for one. Not serviced one day even though sign on the door from 10am. Hot weather but no seats in the garden. Dreadful breakfast, stale bruised fruit. A dismal stay
