    There was nothing that we disliked but the showerhead was a little annoying. As you had a wait for the water to warm up, the water pressure was at times to much and it caused the head to lift up and shower the bathroom. Might suggest the cleaning team look up and clear the cobwebs though.

    Location was exactly as required, within the village permitting us to meander and enjoy the facilities with the car being parked out front on the car park. The Bed was huge, I lost the Mrs it was that wide. The first night we ate in the hotel, the food was tasty and the service very good. Breakfast the following morning was as expected, the home made granola, yoghurts and fruit set us up for the day but the 2nd and 3rd mornings, the offerings had diminished but was still sufficient.

    I had a single room which was fine for one person and the shower in the en-suite bathroom was also great, albeit a bit small. My only gripe is that the sink was so small I couldn’t even clean my teeth let alone wash my face! The glass shelf directly above the sink didn’t help!

    A lovely hotel with lots of character in a great location. The food was great.

    It was very windy during the night and the window (in Room 3) rattled alarmingly. However, it was easily fixed with a piece of cardboard. But perhaps thought should be given to upgrading the all windows, which are becoming a little tired. This is purely constructive criticism, in no way did it affect the enjoyment of our stay.

    Boscastle is a very dog friendly place and the Wellington Hotel is no exception. Our dog was provided with a bed, a toy, treats, bisuits and even a can of dog beer! The staff were exceptionally friendly and efficient. The room was clean comfortable and everything worked well. We have stayed here twice before and the high standard has been maintained. The breakfast was very good and evening meal (steak) very good indeed. The chef certainly knows what he's doing.

    Shower was adequate but a bit feeble and not as hot as I'd have liked.

    Central location meant I could get around easily. Having parking available was useful. The room was quiet and comfortable. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

    Turn the hot water on earlier! Tepid showers first thing in the morning do mean that you tend to save water, but I don't really enjoy having to channel my inner Wim Hof.

    Perfect location for exploring the north coast. The hotel is a very old building and accommodations/expectations should be adjusted accordingly. A great venue, exceptional staff, good food & very good value for money.

    I am 6ft 4 inches tall and found the shower in room 10 rathers small i.e. when I was washing my feet, when bending down, I nearly head-butted the side of the shower!!

    Breakfast and dinner were both superb as were the location and atmosphere. Staff were great too esp.the young gentleman at reception. All the people working there were very kind and professional i.e. the ladies serving dinner and breakfast, the girl behind the bar and the lady we chatted to who was cleaning rooms in the morning. All 10 out of 10.

    NOT APPLICABLE. MY FRIEND AND I COULD NOT FIND ANY FAULT WITH THE WELLINGTON HOTEL. IN FACT, WE ARE PLANNING TO RETURN NEXT YEAR. WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT.

    EXCELLENT LOCATION RIGHT IN THE HEART OF BOSCASTLE. WE HAVE STAYED AT THE WELLINGTON HOTEL BEFORE AND LIKED IT VERY MUCH TO STAY AGAIN. FOOD EXCELLENT AND STAFF ARE FRIENDLY AND VERY HELPFUL. IT’S WITHIN WALKING DISTANCE OF THE HARBOUR AND CLOSE TO THE WITCHES MUSEUM. A RANGE OF NICHE SHOPS TO SUIT ALL TASTES: FROM CRYSTAL SHOPS, BOUTIQUES SPECIALISING IN CASUAL & OUTDOOR WEAR & A CRAFT SHOP. ALSO, A RANGE OF PUBS AND RESTAURANTS TO CHOOSE FROM. YOU DEFINITELY NEED A CAR TO GET TO BOSCASTLE AS IT IS OFF THE BEATEN TRACK. IF YOU WANT TO GO FURTHER AFIELD, 20 MINUTES AWAY IS TINTAGEL.
