Super hotel, impressive historical building & right by the castle. Great food & great staff.
Pros:

Super hotel in a historical building with sweeping views across green valleys, & adjacent to Launceston's famous Norman Castle. Very good food (both breakfast and dinner), & very comfortable room with super bathroom. Highly recommend this hotel, which is also great value for money.

Cosy stay for one.
Pros:

There was lots to like about this stay. Perfect location, easy to check-in, friendly staff, lovely outdoor space to have a drink, affordable and very tasty food. I stayed in a one-bedroom room and whilst small, I thought it was just so cosy.

Cons:

The wi-fi in the room was really really poor. If I was staying more than one night I'd have to be asked to change room as it kept cutting out. Also, it feels as though the hotel might be the only nice place to drink in town as it became pretty rowdy in the evening with lots of young people. It didn't bother me too much, but I can imagine it would annoy some paying guests looking to have a quiet drink whilst enjoying the stunning views. Also my room was tucked away, some others might not be so lucky.

Enjoyable time and lovely staff. In need of serious investment.
Pros:

Staff attentive and very friendly. Evening meals good. Overall, nice and clean. Room comfortable with large bathroom. Location very good. Plenty of free car parking.

Cons:

The hotel appearance inside and out is very tired and needs some attention. I should add that the hotel was originally built as an imposing Georgian Villa. New carpets, paintwork throughout, and new furniture in restaurant and bar areas overdue. Some of the bedroom furniture smelled musty. I genuinely don’t want to overplay any negativity, but the shabby chic vibe erred slightly on the side of shabby.

We had a very comfortable couple of nights in a very interesting place.
Pros:

The staff were exceptionally good - very friendly, polite and helpful. The hotel is a historic building and retains much of its Georgian character.

Cons:

The building needs some maintenance and in particular attention to the windows and doors. These are minor matters as far as its hotel function is concerned. The breakfasts were acceptable but could have been better. The vegan breakfast was very good.

Pros:

Dinner was lovely and possibly too much to eat! Cider batter on fish was gorgeous and the steak tender and tasty!
Lovely to watch the sun setting over the hills as we enjoyed our meal.
Bed was large and comfy.Great view over the fields.

Cons:

A new toaster for breakfast!

Cracking venue, but a bit of a maze to find my room, superb breakfast/staff.
Pros:

The staff member at breakfast was very friendly and helpful. I also noticed her jumping in when there seemed to be an issue with the coffee machine. Breakfast was well-prepared and came out swiftly.

Cons:

The lack of indication where to park. The space directly in front of the building was fully occupied. I'd recommend putting a section on your website (with a satellite view picture!) to indicate where the dedicated parking is. I was told, but decided not to go there as it was a narrow allow with a sharp bend to the left. With a long-wheel-based van it wasn't something I fancied trying after a very long day.

Pros:

The friendly staff, the area of the hotel being within the castle grounds. The breakfast. We was putting a room in the lower floor but it wasn't what we had expected so we asked for another room and they let us have the room at the top of the hotel,a bigger and more appealing room.

Cons:

Nothing

Pros:

The bed was very comfortable and the staff was great. English breakfast was good just needs some investment and updating. It was fair for the price. Late and early checkin/out was a great bonus

Cons:

Dirty glasses and dirty table cloths in the dining room.
