The Horn of Plenty

Wedding overnight stay! What a perfect wedding venue. Amazing views, great staff and delicious food. We stayed overnight in Room 10 in the Coach House, very comfortable , a bit short on space but everything you need. The balcony was a bonus as the weather was stunning and views fro there were gorgeous.

Took my grandparents for a delicious 3 course lunch last week and it did not disappoint. The food was excellent and exceeded all expectations. The honey mousse was beautifully presented and tasted even better. The service was great and the atmosphere was lovely. We will definitely be back!

We went for an afternoon tea on 27th May. There was just 2 of us. On arriving, the parking was very limited. There was no signage explaining where to park and the dead end drive was difficult to reverse back down when we realised there was nowhere to park. The property is lovely, the views amazing. On entering the main doors there was no signage directing you where to go. So we headed towards the restaurant and were greeted by a nice lady who booked us in to our reserved table. We sat by the windows looking out at the lovely views down to the wooded valley beyond. Service was ok, not the best, but not awful. Sadly, the flowers on our table were wilted and dead. The waitress swapped these with another one from a different table when we pointed this out. We wanted to take nice photos of our afternoon tea and the views beyond, and dead flowers would have looked a bit rubbish. The afternoon tea arrived quickly. We are both vegetarians which was easily accommodated. The stand is 3 tiers. The bottom tier had 6 tiny slim crustless sandwich with lovely fillings. Really delicious. The second tier had 4 scones, jam and clotted cream, and the top tier had a selection of cakes. All of which were utterly delicious! We thought it looked a bit sparse, but we ate the whole thing washed down with two pots of tea, and we were full. However, we feel there should be more savoury and less sweet items. Extra sandwiches and just one scone each with the cakes would have been a better balance. Whilst it was all really tasty and beautifully presented, it was VERY sweet-heavy. We both felt a bit sickly afterwards. In summary: The sandwiches were very nice and we both would have eaten more - we would have preferred 2 savoury and one sweet tier, rather than one savoury and two sweet. Maybe this could be an option offered to guests? Very tasty and more than enough, but just too much sugar!

A group of us arrived to attend a wedding. Staff very friendly from check in to check out. The staff made everyone welcome. Rooms are expensive but they are absolutely amazing with brilliant views across the moors and looking down to Tamar River

We had afternoon tea. Everything was excellent. The food and drink was amazing and we were served by a lovely lady called Sarah. She was very efficient, informative and friendly. Lovely setting and a very pleasant experience. We would definitely go back.

I have just returned from 2 nights with my husband. This was supposed to be a special few days down memory lane. Unfortunately it was all very disappointing. The hotel for me has lost its allure and believe the focus now is on weddings rather than nice paying guests who want value for money in good surroundings with tasty food. We got none of these. I did feel that the staff are not able to provide the type of service that we have experienced on frequent visits here, the last one being before the new owner took over. On check out at 9.45 this morning the lady did not ask how the stay had been, when we would be back, or even what we thought of our stay and how was the food. This is very poor customer service. The main road from the hotel going west (A 390) giving the only access into Cornwall was closed during our stay meaning massive diversions were required adding at least 30 minutes to journey times, this was not mentioned prior to arrival, at check in or check out. Some advice would have been easy and very helpful but not forthcoming. We were advised that as part of our package we could have a cream tea or picnic lunch. We agreed on arrival that we would collect the picnic on check out in order to enjoy on the beach today. Guess what, nothing was offered on check out and there for collection. All in all very disappointing in a hotel that used to be fabulous. The new owner I believe has a lot to change.
