Barrowfield Hotel, Newquay (Cornwall)

The hotel offered a mix of good and not-so-good experiences. While the rooms were large and very clean, they were not very soundproof and had a smell of drainage. The service, especially from our waiter, was absolutely wonderful and the location was convenient with easy access to the coast and nearby towns. The dining experience had its ups and downs with some issues but good quality produce. Facilities were average but functional.

The hotel boasts a convenient location just outside of town with a pleasant sea view walk down and good parking facilities, though wheelchair access may be challenging. The service was mixed, with some helpful and friendly staff but lacking transparency on certain issues. The dining experience offered a varied selection but not up to expected standards, with some inconvenience due to current regulations. The rooms were basic and in need of upgrades, lacking soundproofing on the first floor.

My stay at the hotel was fantastic. The room was lovely and clean, and the front location offered a sunny yet cool atmosphere. The manager's welcoming made our long trip worthwhile. However, the bathroom extractor fan was a bit noisy, but who keeps the light on for long anyway?
