Hotels near Real Glamping at the Fir Hill Ltd, Newquay

We have recently returned from a week long stay here and were very impressed overall. We had a large well equipped bedroom with a sea view, which was clean and comfortable. The bathroom had a good shower with plenty of hot water and THE best smelling toiletries! House keeping came every day to clean and refresh the tea/coffee etc. The inclusive breakfast was excellent and cooked to order each day. The bar /restaurant is open to the general public and is often busy. This can lead to long wait times for food in the evening. The lunch/main menu is a little limited in scope but everything we tried was well cooked and presented. We found the staff to all be friendly and helpful. If you are staying for even just a few days then booking parking is advisable (as parking in Newquay is generally not easy) but do so at the time you book because spaces are limited. Overall we had a wonderful time at The Great Western and look forward to visiting again next summer.

First time staying at this Travelodge and will definitely stay here again. Room was spacious and very clean. All the staff we encountered were friendly and helpful, I can't name anyone as I couldn't see any name badges. Even though our room faced onto the road the traffic noise was minimal during the night so didn't bother us even with the window open. Excellent base for exploring Cornwall as it is 2 minute walk to the railway station and nearest bus stop.

The Atlantic Hotel is in a great location close to the town and beaches which was perfect for what we were looking for. We did read the reviews before booking which were mostly positive and as we could get 4 nights for a great price, we booked it. The hotel as other reviews is very tired and needs a spruce up, but the rooms are very big and have everything you need. The parking is good if a bit tight near reception, is a bigger car park a short walk away, and you can also park around all sides of the hotel. The hotel telephoned shortly before our stay, telling us that the lift would not be working during our stay (from other reviews and at the time of booking - it appears to have been out of action for 5 months) we asked for a low room if possible on arrival. We were given room 210, which was a very large room facing Fistral Beach. As my wife had recently had a knee replacement, we asked for a move to a lower floor and the reception staff were helpful and accommodation, finding us a first floor room the day after. We were moved to 138 which again was a very large room and had great views out to Watergate Bay. I have to say we really enjoyed our stay the staff are friendly and helpful. On a downside the hotel is dark in places even when the sun was shining and would benefit of more lighting. It would also be helpful to advertise breakfasts, evening meal or other facilities e.g. the pool as wasn't any information in the room or easily visible in the hotel. From googling we did find the breakfast prices to be more expensive than locally so decided to venture out.

Unfortunately (and I believe it’s the manager - shaved head and glasses) is just so rude. Local to the area so we have the ‘locals’ card - which has always been an issue. In the past when we have shown it to the staff they’re like ‘we’ve put it on’ when we actively see they haven’t. We recently had to renew the locals card, and every time the new code given to us doesn’t work. My husband has tried three times, and given his details to the staff three times because they ‘promise it will get sorted’. This last time, the above mentioned manager just had no desire to assist. Quite stiff when we ordered drinks, short with his staff. When we gave him the locals card number he said ‘it’s expired’ and just brought over the PDQ without even trying to look into it. When I expressed that it really didn’t seem fair to not look into as it wasn’t our fault he said ‘well it’s not my fault either! - cutting me off as I was trying to explain that this would now be the third time we have followed the instruction to use the QR code and leave details with them. I just said ‘that’s a bit spicy and rude way to respond but okay’ and walked off to him shouting after me ‘no it’s not really!’ I’m sorry, I do love this place for so many reasons and memories but this manager is just so rude.

Well what can I say. Absolutely fabulous hotel. Just back from a five day couch tour and stayed at this hotel. Our room had a seaview and what a view. It was spacious and Mum required a fridge in our room for her medication this was in our room on arrival. The food was first class, fresh vegetables and a good choice of food. Full English Breakfast was delicious. The swimming pool was awesome I went every day. The staff were very friendly and I would definitely return to this hotel. Thankyou for a great stay.
