A really spacious flat, 2 toilets which is a huge plus. The kitchen was super well stocked, full size fridge which we don't even have at home! Very close to the beach (watergate bay). You do need to travel into newquay (either by car or by bus which stops right outside) in order to go to a shop for food. The beds are very soft (feels like older mattresses) which is really the only bad thing I can say about the place. Would definitely stay again!

Nice room in a very tired hotel. Staff very nice . Did not use laundry

Such a unique and fascinating hotel to stay in. From the start you're already curious about what you would encounter during your stay and as soon as you walk in, the "jail" vibe just hits, but with it an air of pure luxury is felt throughout and every detail has been considered. The walls in your room are a mix of modern plaster but where they can, they've left the original exposed brickwork that the prisoners would have seen and felt when they were in there 200+ years ago. I believe most rooms are 3 original cells knocked through, creating a luxurious bedroom space with dressing table and then provides a beautiful en-suite which looks stunning. Underfloor heating makes the room feel welcoming and there is air conditioning in each room which again makes it feel homely rather than the cold cell it once was. The rooms all have a plaque which gives details of a prisoner who was homed in your room (cell). I did expect a little more exciting than a woman who spent 2 months in there for stealing milk, but they have to keep it low-key I suppose. The breakfast was delicious and for a Sunday, it was very busy but they handled it efficiently. I would recommend the restaurant although it is quite pricey. Sadly, no encounters during the night of anything other-worldly, but we absolutely loved our stay there and it has been a huge talking point with friends since we stayed. Would return for sure!

Thank you for a pleasant stay!

Lovely staff, nice activities but the hotel itself is quite run down - broken furniture in room, stains on furniture etc

Overall a good stay with a few small suggestions We had a good stay overall and would happily return. The staff and the room itself were fine, and everything worked as expected. A couple of things that would make it better: • The facilities information was in a sheet in the room, which was helpful, but I’d have preferred it online too, being able to check what’s available before arriving (or from my phone) would make planning much easier. • Salt and pepper in the studio kitchens would be a nice touch, a small thing, but it makes self-catering much easier. • It would be great if the pool offered women-only and men-only sessions at set times. This would make the facilities more comfortable for guests who’d prefer that. Other than those points, it was a good stay and we enjoyed it.
