Always love our stays at Tregenna. Lovely staff; beautifully clean everywhere; so helpful. Only issue this time - I was told 2 steps up and then down to our room (partner can barely weightbear at the mo). It was actually 4 steps each time which was a real struggle. However room Ideal once in it!

Great location. Contactless checkin was smooth. On site parking. Apartment was spotless, spacious and comfortable. Reception really helpful. Walkable by a path into town and several local beaches. Nice coastal path walks. Not overlooked and a great view.

Would not be able to stay more than 1 night as the only storage in the room was a very small wardrobe. It did hold an ironing board and iron though. There were no drawers so had to live out of our case. The food was ok. The sea bass was well cooked but the lemon drizzle cake was rock hard a dry with no sign of the drizzle. We were there for my husbands works Christmas party so there were almost two hundred people and the service ran very well. The hotel has been smartened up since we were last year which was nice but we did find it difficult to find a parking place.

Stunning, have been here for 29 years and it just gets better. Grounds are stunning, the lodges are real quality. Only downside is that the steam room and sauna have been removed. Besides that superb.

Great hotel with sprawling gardens to walk through. Need a map or you will get lost. Free parking onsite. Staff a very polite and rooms are spacious and well equipped. Only one star off as I was expecting a proper big shower in such a hotel. We had a stunning view over St ives. Would recommend if in the area. Good restaurant as well. Great location to walk to the beach.
