We recently visited, for a one night stay, with our 9month old pup. Really dog friendly. Lovely location, with lots of walks and dog friendly places to visit hear by. Room was nice, a little hot, so we slept with the windows open. WiFi was poor. Breakfast was lovely, good quality ingrediants. We would look to visit again to explore the local area and stay here again.

A very nice venue which impressed me how clean it is in there. The staff is very friendly and patient. I would mention the gentleman from the reception ( I am really sorry that I dont't know his name so I can mention him by the name) that was very kind, helpful and funny. The food is very good as well. Thank you for your hospitality!

Excellent hotel with very good food. The menu is small but very good. The room I had was quite small, but OK for a one day visit.

Lovely hotel. Excellent service. Lovely evening meal and breakfast. Could take our dogs so a great bonus. To get 5 star Sheets on bed creased Radiator in room not working No chair in my dad's room to sit down, he's 87 a stool not enough. A lamp by the bed is needed in single room so you don't have to get out of bed to turn light off I would recommend and stay again.

Amazing place for a country side air, wonderful cottage and dog friendly with good value per dog. Having said that, you need to go out if you have a more active dog, and find a safe place to let off lead. So, the room was beautiful, the restaurant was wonderful, and the staff was absolutely perfect in any way possible, went beyond anything to make us feel good and happy. The food absolutely marvelous and attention to details. We had a wonderful surprise from staff on our wedding anniversary. I cannot fault them, it was just perfect. Thank you!

Staff were lovely, polite friendly and helpful, however, the room was exceptionally disappointing. dull. cold. and simply the worst bed I have slept in. let alone paid to sleep in, a serious leak from the room above. Wi-Fi was stated as available but where we were it was non-existent. worse still it was very musty. unpleasant, to start with we accepted it. we were booked in for two nights but checked out after the first night, to stay in a Premier Inn.
I asked for a refund for the second night and was told it would happen, but the refund has not occurred, therefore the customer service is as poor as the rooms. The Premier Inn was cheaper and far far superior in comfort and facilities. I left my number. but have had no contact or apology from Trehellas. guess customer satisfaction is not that important.
