Mark and Francesca were great hosts and gave us a warm and friendly greeting when we arrived. Bailey was fast asleep most of the time but came to us in the restaurant for a tickle and a stroke. Kernow is an amazing fellow who accompanied us on a walk through the garden to the little chapel and the Druid's chair where he posed without prompting for a photograph. The food was excellent, both evening meal and breakfast. The room was a little on the small side but perfectly adequate, clean and with. alle vurderinger »
This is a family run restaurant and bed and breakfast. The menu was extensive with specials on each day. The evening meals were freshly cooked and superb. The breakfast is also hearty and a full English. The room was clean, bright and comfortable (room 8). There were 4 of us (two couples) and we stayed for three nights. The hotel was a perfect base for day trips out to the sights of Cornwall. We would definitely stay again. Thank you Francesca and Mark!.

The room was very comfortable, quiet with a super bed and a view across
the lovely garden towards the chapel and waterfall. The restaurant was
very good with fine food and wine at good affordable prices for such an
extensive menu. The welcome from Mark and Francesca was very inviting
and they have done a lot to the property to make it such a top place to
stay - St Austell, Heligan, Eden and many other attractions are only a
short drive away.
Lovely,hard working couple making a real go. Good rooms etc but the best thing is the great evening food and relaxing Bar facilities. Also plenty of parking, wonderful garden and dog friendly rooms. We were really made welcome and nothing was too much trouble. Breakfast was a joy and one of the best B & B, evening bar and superb restaurant with excellent veggie opition, we have ever been to. We will come back ASAP!.
Ideal base for visiting the gardens
of Cornwall. Mark and Francesca
were excellent hosts. The restaurant is very nice and the
food is lovely. If visiting the area
in the future would stay here again.
Mark and Francesca are working
really hard to make improvements
to the l7th century building and
have plans for the garden too. There is a lovely conservatory to
relax in and a large outside area
to enjoy too.
The owners, Francesca and Mark, are very good hosts and will do anything
(if possible) to make your stay pleasurable.
The rooms are clean and the beds are confortable with tea/coffee making facilities and TV.
The Waterwheel is an old building which has been empathetically and beautifully refurbished.
The breakfast was very good and I ate the best crab cakes I have ever tasted for dinner.
We loved our stay at the Waterwheel Inn. The proprietors and staff were great. The breakfast and restaurant were excelent. Our room had been recently refurbished, was very clean and the bed linen was replaced regularly during our 11 night stay. The hotel was also close to many attractions.
From the moment we arrived we were made to feel welcome. The room was excellent and overlooked the stream that runs alongside. We decided to eat at The Waterwheel and the food was also excellent. We would recommend this hotel to anyone who is thinking of staying in this area. Brilliant!.
Comfortable accommodation. Laid back, friendly service yet attentive if needed. Food was excellent both at breakfast (big full English!) and in the evening (Good menu with some nice wines). Characterful location with nearby clay 'museum' (which also has a very good cafe).
The food is excellent and the owners are working hard at renovating this old building. Very friendly reception and helpful attitude. Fine for a short break. Quiet and peaceful surroundings. Don't miss out on a walk down the garden to the old well and waterfall.
Superb Independant restuarant and B & B. Food is fantastic and the breakfast is huge, infact every thing is five star. Would recomend to all visitors in this part of Cornwall. If you are visiting the Eden Project you must stay here, only 10 minutes away.

Food
Atmosphere
Friendliness of owners
Nothing too much trouble for owners & staff.
Good location for visiting other parts of Cornwall.
A very minor comment, not a criticism, was that the cistern in the adjacent room was quite loud when refilling after a flush. I suspect ours was loud to them as well. I'm sure this will be something that will be cured in due course with the fitting of quieter flush/refill mechanisms.
We had to leave at the end of our stay.
Must admit the bathroom was a bit cramped but then again how big
do you need?.
Leaving!.
There was nothing to dislike.
The room we had was rather compact and this wasn't helped by the rather elaborate metal bedstead.
nothing to dislike.
Rooms a bit noisy as near the road (however we did have our windows open during the night, which obviously didn't help). En-suite rather small, but spotlessly clean.
Nothing.
the stay was too short !.
