Entering the grounds of the 18th-century Boscundle Manor feels like stepping into a storybook. This 14-room hotel near the Eden Project is easily the most unusual property in its class for the area, especially in terms of character and decor. Big differentiators for this cosy mid-range hotel are an on-site spa and an excellent restaurant. There’s also a full-service bar/lounge, free daily breakfast, and free Wi-Fi. However, the oftentimes ornate and sometimes frilly or loud decor might not appeal to all guests, and some of the rooms are removed from the main house. Another property to consider could be the Talland Bay Hotel, which has similar amenities and more uniform decor.

The Cornwall Hotel Spa and Estate uses an early 1800s mansion refashioned with nine rooms and suites as the heart of its upscale getaway. Built behind that historic house is a structure with 56 modern hotel rooms, and beyond that 22 Woodland Homes offer a vacation condo-type experience. Amenities include a spa with an indoor pool and massage packages as well as tennis courts and miles of nature walks. Given all these possibilities, the property draws an array of guests with varying expectations, which leads to some guest being thrilled and others leaving disappointed. By comparison, the Bedruthan Hotel & Spa is a little more traditional (and expensive), but doesn't offer the distinctive options of The Cornwall Hotel Spa and Estate.
