This is a retrospective review, having stayed at Budock Vean in August without getting around to writing our thoughts for Tripadvisor. However, we have just returned from another UK Hotel which is extremely highly regarded, and found that it wasn't a patch on Budock Vean, despite the extremely high nightly rate for a low season stay! The facilities at Budock... more

We have visited this hotel on a number of occasions over the past few years and cannot fault it. The ideal spot for a few days rest and relaxation. Plenty of good walks to prepare you for dinner. Food is excellent and the room was good, though the one we stayed in will need redecoration soon. The spa was good... more

We have stayed here twice a year for the last 3 years and have enjoyed every second of it. My husband and I got married here in Oct 2008 and our day was absolutely perfect. Our guests still talk about how it was the best wedding breakfast they had ever had. The staff could not do enough for us and... more

I have never been to a hotel which fails so badly to live up to expectations. This can only be a 4 star hotel due to the golf course and spa as everything else is distinctly average. (We stayed in the Metropole in Padstow, which is a 3 star ,3 days previously and it was much much better all round).... more

This is great Hotel in a fantastic setting. Staff are friendly and helpful. The food is great though the menu tends to be somewhat repetative over 2/3 days. The bedrooms are beginnig to look tired - some of the windows do not open properly The ownesr seem less interested these days - never saw the wife once this holiday and... more

We can not praise this hotel enough.We booked the hotel at the last minute as we fancied a bit of a spa break in Cornwall.We have a 1 year old boy so finding a suitable hotel can be problematic. The reception staff were very welcoming,The room (which was upgraded to family room) was spacious and beautifully decorated.Lovely fluffy dressing gowns... more

I stayed here as a single traveller. I did book a single room but I hadnt expected a single bed, although they did upgrade me to a superior room. The decor was rustic English and could probably do with an overhaul and less chintz, however the room was comfortable, very clean, spacious and had fabulous views of the golf course... more
