The area, and particularly The Thorncliff Hotel faces due west giving the most magnificent and dramatic sunsets and enchanting skylines that follow, at any time of year. With the owners history of 3rd generational fine cuisine, Rebecca, brings with her the awe-inspiring yet unsurprising accolade of head chef at Johannsen's Restaurant of The Year 1997, awarded to Freshman's Restaurant, the previous family business in the heart of Worcestershire, conspired to retain its exclusivity by the rich and famous. Needless to say the utmost emphasis is put on matching this gastronomic perfection. However smoking is permitted on the terrace and garden areas. Being a small, more exclusive hotel, we pride ourselves on providing a most warm and friendly welcome to what is essentially our family home.
Nothing is too much trouble and our energy and enthusiasm to please remains uncompromised.
We're ideally suited to couples looking for a romantic break, away from the hustle and bustle of every day life. Unfortunately we don't have the facilities to cater for children which we've found to be a necessity, especially as the weather can often put a damper on the traditional beach holiday. Due to it's geographical location, the hotel is an ideal base from which to explore the many fascinating and charming areas of Cornwall. On the south coast you can visit quaint fishing villages such as Mevagissy and Polpero, go north to Rock and Port Issac or head across to St. Austall to visit the fascinating Eden project, just a 20 minute drive away. As we are situated right on the North Cornwall Coastal path there are many stunning walks to enjoy - some more energetic than others.
