Boringdon Hall Hotel and Spa

Myself and my husband visited Boringdon Hall for our 10 year wedding anniversary which was a surprise booking (by my husband). He had researched a hotel that was fairly local to ourselves (SE Cornwall) that had a spa and suites available. We initially stayed in the Wellness Suites (Oct 2023) which were very impressive but we had a few (fairly substantial) issues with our stay, fortunately after speaking with a manager these were rectified. We then revisited in November and stayed in the Royal Suite, and cannot find a single fault about our stay. We received a really warm welcome at reception and appreciated the welcome drinks (Mulled Wine) we had also additionally booked the Festive afternoon tea which was superb, one of the best afternoon tea experiences I’ve had. All the staff at the hotel were very attentive. We did have to knock on the office door when we visited the spa to gain someone’s attention after standing in the lobby for several minutes, and we would have preferred a member of the spa staff to show us the facilities as it took wandering to find the quiet rooms and additional areas that were further from the poolside, you can also access the Spa Restaurant directly from the spa which would’ve been helpful to know as we could’ve gone straight to breakfast from the spa as w had seen others have done. These are small things to point out that could hopefully be rectified for other guests in the future. Our room was exemplary. It was situated in the main house which is such a wonderful old building. The suite itself is accessed via a staircase (this was not an issue whatsoever to us) and the bathroom within the suite accessed via another small staircase. We loved the quirks of the room. The mini bar was a great addition. And the hot tub had fantastic views across the town and over to Dartmoor, such a great addition. The bed was one of the comfiest I’ve slept in when staying in a hotel and we did not hear a noise from any other part of the hotel during our stay. Dinner in the Mayflower Brasserie was great, the staff did have to be reminded to bring my husbands wine over, and this unfortunately happened on both trips but such a small point that it didn’t deter us from enjoying our meal. Breakfast was fantastic the staff at breakfast during both stays were always extremely attentive, nothing was too much trouble. We cannot wait to stay again.

Amazing history, staff, spa, experience ! 2nd visit and will come back again in the summer :) First time was a spa day with my mum in the summer , beautiful surroundings and excellent treatments ! The second was a surprise Christmas night stay with my parents and we all loved everything about it ! Treatments again and the food was 5 star . Sally

I’m not giving a review, to my dinner which was excellent, it is to an up and coming meal, I have booked a dinner for 3 on the 25 May, but want to change that. I have sent 8 emails, one each day since booking with all the details of what I want to do. I have received no response, so today I decided to call and confirm those changes nothing. It just rings out after at least 4 minutes. Tried to ring the main hotel number nothing! What the hell is going on? I will keep trying but hey? This has a star. 😕😕😕😕😕😕

Had a wonderful day spa experience with my friend for her birthday. The afternoon tea was lovely and plentiful, so much for us, that they kindly boxed 5 cakes for us to take home. We had a loving time around the spa area, using the pools, sauna, steam room and jacuzzi’s, enjoying drinks to the lounge beds. Best of all a fantastic hot stone massage. I was a bit nervous as I’d never had a massage before but I had a wonderful lady called Andrea who put me at ease, explained every step and carried out just the most relaxing and thorough massage. Worth every penny.

Absolutely amazing Gaia spa raindrop therapy was 10/10 Katie is amazing at what she does. Food was first class lamb and pie both excellent the semi Fredo and the chocolate orange were amazing. Room was faultless. Nothing was too much trouble. We will be back.

After spending a night away here two years ago we decided to save up for another night this week. The hotel is beautiful and was looking forward to a gorgeous night away in luxury. Unfortunately as wonderful as the room was, and the evening meal, we were made to feel very uncomfortable as if we didn’t belong in such an environment even when we have paid an enormous amount just as everyone else has. We walked into the bar for an afternoon drink after checking in and was soon accosted by a member of staff asking ‘are you ok in here?’ As if he thought we’d just walked in off the street. We had our drinks and not asked room number etc like couple in front (I’m assuming as it wasn’t even remotely possible we were staying here?) We had a lovely evening meal and were then joined by my partners mum and sister who had travelled to join us so that we could treat them for some drinks, then once their taxi arrived we went out to wave them off. We mentioned this to the bar staff so they knew where we were regarding our drinks and told by the waitress in front of all bar guests…. ‘Yes please come back, please don’t leave’. I beg your pardon???? In what world would that be something that would have been said to ANY other of these guests staying at the hotel. Absolutely furious and mortified. 2 years spent saving for one night….. Ruined. Gutted doesn’t even cover it. Such a shame.

A beautiful property, well managed with professional team members, great cocktails, wonderful food, sumptuous bedrooms and a very relaxing spa. We have never switched off like this before and with work commitments we aren’t seeing a-lot of each other, so it was good to spend some real quality time with my wife in stunning surroundings. We had the best sleep on the most comfiest mattress too. Afternoon tea was also excellent, and we simply could not find anything wrong. Well done to the whole team for delivering such a memorable experience Thank you
