Driftwood

Most of these reviews seem to relate to the now closed restaurant. Situated in a beautiful location and that is seemingly what justifies the price tag. Rooms had a fan, which was much appreciated, and a fridge and ours had a bath (but no working shower head). For the price tag, 15ml of shower gel (for 2 people) with a shower that doesn't work really doesn't cut it. Not a place to stay in the middle of your travels. You get to play breakfast roulette, with no way of pre-determining which so if it is important to you to know, it might be worth a preemptive email. Decent coffee machine, with a syrup a nice extra. The beach is lovely but not truly private. Bedding and mess on the landing the entire time. Saw people at the check out for the first time; I'm sure they would have fixed the shower head if we had been there for more than one night.

An absolutely stunning hotel with breathtaking sea views, a cozy and relaxing atmosphere, and top-notch service. The lush garden, elegant interior, and attention to every detail make it a perfect place to unwind. Everything is truly exceptional😍

We kicked off our tour of Cornwall at the Driftwood and would happily have stayed longer. The private beach and rooms with a view make any walk well worth it. Breakfast was amazing and we switched each day and was always happy and full. We did switch rooms for a better shower and the owner could not have been more helpful.

This was our first visit to Cornwall. We came to celebrate my son’s birthday. We’re from NYC but staying in Cardiff for the summer. The hotel exceeded our expectations. The grounds, our room and the view were absolutely lovely. We didn’t have a car so that was difficult. But other than taking a taxi to The Eden Project we spent our four days, three nights at the hotel and we were happy to do so. The little hike back and forth to the private beach is charming. The little lookouts on the property are so serene. The afternoon tea perfect and special. The staff is incredibly accommodating. Leah at the front desk is very sweet and the owner Fiona genuinely kind and helpful in planning your day. Two standouts in the restaurant were Camilla and Dan. All the staff in the restaurant was on point, if a little reserved and cool. But Camilla and Dan were so effortlessly warm to my son and I—especially as it was his birthday. I really appreciated the kindness. We’ll have memories from this place for years to come. We hope to come back.
