Camelot Castle Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Camelot castle is a perfect location for Tintagel . A short walk into the village which although busy is lovely. The views from the hotel are breathtaking with a costal path direct to the small beach( check tidal times before you go) There is a lovely bar where we purchased drinks and sat outside and watches the sunset. The hotel decor is amazing and have a comfortable lounge to sit on. Our room was plenty big enough with sea view, bathroom had a bath and separate shower too and was spotless. Only thing for me was the bed was a bit too firm. Breakfast was plentiful and staff were professional but also friendly. We would thoroughly recommend this hotel."

Retallack Resort

8/10 Good
"A well presented resort and a well equipped self catering apartment. Located centrally in Cornwall for most days out. The Lookout bar is vibrant and busy most evenings. There is plenty for the younger people to do on site. The few things that require resolving: 1. The balcony seating was soaking wet on arrival. 2. The freezer box in the fridge was full of ice and could not be used. 3. Only one poor quality small loo roll was provided, it certainly allowed you to get in touch with your inner self. Would we return, yes now that we are aware of the pitfalls."
