Hotels in Cornwall vary wildly, namely because the purpose built hotels have not been possible.
The various hotels in Cornwall were built hundreds of years ago. Some country inns were transformed into hotels during the early part of 1800 and have remained hotels. There are some fantastic old country houses along Helford Passage in Cornwall that make great retreats for the summer.
Great news for people searching for hotels in Cornwall during the summer of 2010. There are more of them! Traditional country inns have sprung up from literally no where, why? Because of demand and an easy buck to be made from bed and breakfast. Bed and Breakfast in the UK is big business so be warned that whilst you may be fortunate to stay at a family run place with plenty of experience there is a risk that your chosen destination is run by start ups with little to no experience at running a hotel or basic bed and breakfast. Warning over, now down to the searching for somewhere nice to stay in Cornwall.
One of the most established breweries in Cornwall has also a good choice of managed hotels throughout the County. St Austell Inns and Hotels will not let you down and is a safe bet for somewhere to stay that offers great food and drink.
There are quaint English Inns such as the Crooked Inn but compared to hotels the Camelot Castle takes the prize for number 1 hotel in Cornwall.
The problem with Camelot Castle is the cost.
Whilst Camelot Castle Hotel is a wonderful charming hotel in Tintagel, Cornwall it really would have to be a special occasion to visit. It’s not your usual stop over kind of a place to stay.
Sitting proudly in Tintagel overlooking the Atlantic Ocean and Tintagel Castle Camelot Castle Hotel offers 64 stunning rooms with magnificent panoramic views over the Cornish coastline. From Hartland Point in the North, to Trevose Head in the South the rugged coastline is awesome.
This is the legendary birthplace of King Arthur and with the legend comes unsurpassed scenery, natural beauty, peace and tranquility, it is possibly one of the most inspiring locations in the world.
If you think that hotels with such a long history is uncommon think again.
It’s only in the last 30 years or so that new pupose built hotels have been errected, prior to this statements like ‘the hotel’s beautiful original structure dates back 700 years’ are just far too common.
Ok we have covered very old to recently sprung up over night and there are so many freehouse country inns with hotel status. One such hotel near Gweek on the Helford Estuary is the Tengilly Country Inn, surrounded in outstanding beauty it’s worth driving or walking by just for a look. This is an area like most places in Cornwall that simply takes the breath away.
