Castello di Tintagel a due passi
Pros:

La posizione centrale per visitare il castello di Tintagel.

Cons:

Camere un po’ antiquate, pulizia non al massimo. Alle 19:40 la cucina era già chiusa e non abbiamo potuto cenare nella struttura.

Good location
Pros:

Convenient for the castle and local pubs, etc. Quiet even though we were on the main street.
Spacious room was well equipped and newly decorated.
Good shower and huge, fluffy towels.
Good choice at breakfast although there was no fresh fruit.
Staff very friendly and helpful.

Cons:

The room was very hot and stuffy in the hot weather, but we were given a better fan on request. It would be a good idea to provide lighter duvets and/or spare sheets in summer.
