We had two rooms on a room only basis for one night. We were wowed by the drive up to the hotel...it was beautiful! We entered the hotel through an old castle door and into a well decorated and tastefully modern reception. Staff were efficient, if slightly aloof.

The room was large and clean although the shower was only set to scolding so we made do with the bath. The food... More

We stayed at the Alverton from 5th-7th April, the building itself is beautiful and even more so bathed in the beautiful Cornish sunshine. Staff were very friendly and helpful but not overbearing. Food was delicious and the breakfasts in particular were extraordinary, my favourite smoked salmon and scrambled eggs were absolutely divine......on the Saturday morning in particular the eggs were...

My husband and I stayed at the hotel following the wedding of a friend, so didn't therefore take full advantage of all the hotel had to offer. The room we were allocated was spacious and comfortable.
