We have today returned from a wonderful few days at the Driftwood hotel. The staff are amazing and can’t do enough to help you. Stuart on reception was so helpful and obliging and always seems to be on duty. The breakfast staff are also very friendly and efficient and the breakfast itself was one of the best breakfasts we have had in a very long time. We were in room 2 which had the most spectacular views from three large picture windows. Stunning! The hotel is situated just above the beach and even though it was chilly we took a walk down there. We were visiting friends in the area who had just opened an amazing art gallery in St Mawes and we will definitely be coming back to the Dritftwood soon. A memorable visit to a beautiful part of the country.

My husband and I have just come back from two nights winder get away to The Driftwood Hotel . The location of the hotel is spectacular even in winter as it outlooks gardens, beach and the massive expansive sea ! The hotel is very comfortable and homely . The staff are kind , friendly and professional and take pride in their jobs. We had room 2 in the main house which had 3 windows to enjoy the views . The chef produced delicious breakfasts & dinners for us ( we ate in both nights which was perfect after a day out walking and exploring the local towns . We would highly recommend and hope to return to enjoy The Hotel in the sunshine too .

I went with my friend for afternoon tea. It was absolutely amazing! The hotel has such a cozy, relaxing, peaceful ambiance. The owners are really good with the interior design. The views are stunning, the food was great and the whole team really friendly. The journey was definitely worth it. We will be back 😊

Stayed here for two nights as we ticked off walking the South West Coastal Path from St Anthony to Portloe. Perfect location with views to match. The dinner was spectacular and breakfast wide ranging and delicious. The service was impeccable and so friendly. Will be back.

We will absolutely be coming back to this hotel. Staff, service, views and food were all perfect, thank you! We had a really excellent dinner, the wine list was interesting and very well done. Breakfast plentiful and very good. We were sorry to be only staying one night - would recommend for a couple of days to thoroughly unwind or for a special treat.

Gorgeous hotel. Beautiful location. Friendly, helpful staff. Really lovely restaurant with amazing ambience and beautiful views. Expensive though and the menu doesn’t change if you’re there for a week. Bathroom small. Bed very comfortable. GREAT!!!

This hotel is a rare find. From the welcome showed too my wife and myself from the staff, to the magnificent room with a view. This was the perfect addition to our tour around Cornwall and Devon. The Driftwood may be best described as an adult hotel because I think it can only be appreciated by those persons requiring calmness and tranquillity along with excellent food and wine. If we ever have the opportunity to stay here again, we would certainly make the effort.

We stayed at The Driftwood 6 years ago & had a lovely experience. We recently visited for dinner whilst on holiday, although the hotel & restaurant was as lovely as we remembered it, we left slightly disappointed with the dining experience. Front of house were welcoming & friendly but I don't like to see staff looking at their phones in a small intimate restaurant. The food we felt was average & the portion sizes were more akin to a tasting menu as opposed to the 3 course menu The Driftwood offers which we felt wasn't good value for money. The menu was also limited on choice which in itself isn't a problem but unfortunately the dishes on offer were very uninspiring. This experience won't stop us visiting again & just hope that the food lives up to the wonderful hotel that The Driftwood it is.

Our second visit in two years and hopefully won't be the last. Amazingly beautiful hotel set in the most idyllic setting imaginable. Breakfast that are just fabulous and extremely comfortable rooms all go to make this the a wonderful place just to chill and totally relax. It's not the place if you are looking for a fast pace and night life but if you want superb quality in a peace of paradise you won't go wrong. However what makes this hotel so very special are the wonderful staff from the top down who truly just go out of their way to be as helpful and lovely as you could ever possibly wish for.
