Trenython Manor

Great cottage, had everything we needed for our stay. Would definitely book again.

Service was excellent especially with the young ladies in the restaurant. Breakfast and evening Food was very good.

booked this hotel for our 46th wedding anniversary after seeing the write ups on the quality of the food and hotel. The hotel write up says “wake up to sea views and a hearty breakfast included on both mornings of your stay, tuck into the continental buffet or order cooked items from the menu, will it be full Cornish or eggs Benedict? Our talented chefs will create a three course dinner for you to enjoy in the intimate oak panelled Dakota restaurant also included in one night of your stay expect delicious dishes where local and seasonal ingredients shine” I must point out that this hotel was taken over in September 2024 and I think most of the information on their website is related to the previous owners the delicious food was not forthcoming we had booked that romantic weekend which included rose petals in the room, chocolate bottle of Bubbly & breakfast on both nights with three course dinner on 1st night The breakfast was most disappointing I've never seen such a bland looking full English in all my life as per the photograph and it was all cold and I ordered it with the eggs poached to be on toast so the yoke would seep into the toast and my wife ordered egg Benedict, both our eggs came up solid! The evening meal which again nothing related to previous write ups on the hotel. The main courses on offer were pasta arrabiata, sirloin steak but that was an additional £10, duck with noodles and hoisin sauce, cheeseburger and fish and chips. The duck and noodles came up with a duck leg on top! Whenever I've had that in any other high class restaurants the duck always comes up shredded in the noodles not dumped on the top. The waitress we had who's now gone off to Bali was outstanding, the maitre-d' for breakfast and in general I must say was very poor. While staying you could NOT run up a TAB! Every time we ordered a beer, wine or anything you have to pay at time of ordering.

This review is about the HOTEL and hotel ROOM we stayed in only - the lodge in the hotel grounds we were moved to after 2 hideous nights was fabulous - clean, fresh and fully equipped (and we had no complaints either about the scaffolding which entirely covered the Manor House building but only showed that some external maintenance at least was underway) So, the room (which we were expected to stay a week in) ... was utterly shocking. When we'd signed up for our CLC Trial Membership we had been promised that we would have 5 holidays where the last thing we needed to worry about would be the standard of our accommodation, since we had purchased 5 weeks of ‘luxury accommodation’. Other CLC holidays have (or have almost) matched up to that promise, but the hotel room we were allocated at Trenython Manor would barely have passed muster as 2 star budget accommodation. After our first 2 nights there, when we’d hardly slept at all due to what sounded like someone banging a metal pipe on a dustbin lid every few seconds throughout the night (which on investigation turned out to be caused by a gate at the top of the scaffolding outside our room, which had been left open and was swinging to and fro in the high wind and constantly banging against the metal scaffolding), we'd asked at the hotel reception for a room change - and were moved to one of the aforementioned lodges for the rest of our stay. But the room ... well, there was absolutely no way we could have spent a week in that room – even without the disturbed sleep – because it was tiny, shabby, ill-equipped and very, very dirty as evidenced by the attached photographs. IF you need to stay in the area be sure to book a LODGE rather than a room!

Booked a Villa and it was amazing. 2 bedrooms all clean and suitable for my family. There is a kitchen which we were able to cook on oir 2nd day. We were able to book slots for their pool and use the jacuzzi,steam room and sauna. We had breakfast the first day a bit pricey but I guess thats a standard price for this kind of hotel. All the staffs are amazing,nice and accomodating nothing is a bother. The lady in reception ,in the pool and Richard on our check out are all assets of this place. Highly recommended and we would love to come back if visiting Fowey again. There are lots of places to go nearby.

Stayed at Trenython Manor for two nights as a birthday getaway. While the location is absolutely lovely — close to several charming pubs, restaurants, and beaches, and only about 15 minutes from the Eden Project — the stay itself was a bit of a mixed bag. Due to limited availability when booking, we ended up in a family room. It’s great for those with kids, featuring a double bedroom and a separate room with bunk beds. However, there were a few drawbacks. The bathroom was functional, but the bath was very shallow, and the towel rail was constantly hot — which felt quite unsafe, especially in a family-oriented room. The bedroom doors were heavy fire doors that I found difficult to open, and we were located on the second floor — which, because of the high ceilings, felt more like the third or fourth — with no lift access. The room was up in the rafters, likely part of the old servant quarters, with slanted ceilings that aren’t ideal for taller guests. The old-style windows barely opened, and one rattled in the wind, so we had to wedge paper into it to stop the noise. The view was mostly blocked by a high wall right outside the window, which was a bit disappointing. Also, there was a lack of bedside power outlets. That said, the TV was great for unwinding, with access to all the major streaming apps. Parking is limited right outside the hotel and is intended only for loading/unloading. The main car park is a short walk away, which wasn’t too bad for us, but worth noting for anyone with mobility issues or lots of luggage. The leisure facilities were a definite highlight — pool, steam room, sauna, and jacuzzi were all clean and enjoyable, and they even have mini spin-dryers for your swimwear. Just note that guests need to book sessions in advance. It wasn’t an issue for us (midweek and off-season — we even got to extend into a second session), but I imagine it could get crowded during peak times. The hotel advertises two pools and two jacuzzis, though we only saw one of each. I also had a massage at the on-site spa, and the therapist was lovely and did a fantastic job — a real highlight of the stay. Overall, it’s a beautiful spot with great amenities and an ideal location for exploring the area. However, a few room-related and access issues did take away from the overall experience. With a few updates, this could be a fantastic place to stay.
