The avalon guest house is a gem. We booked the Island and sea-view double room and the superior twin room. Both rooms had an excellent view and decoration is modern. The guest house is also within walking distance (4-5 min) to Tintagel castle and old post office. The breakfast selection is also excellent. Julie was very helpful. There is an... more

Put simply - a great location, great rooms, great food and great hospitality. I would highly recommend the Avalon to anyone looking to stay in the Tintagel area. My partner and I stayed for two days last weekend whilst we were attending a wedding in nearby Camelford. Both of us are very well travelled so have a good base to... more

We spent the bank holiday weekend in this quaint and special guest house. Julie and Peter greeted us with warm smiles as we pulled up the drive. Their welcome was warm but not over the top. Our room overlooked the ruins of King Arthur's castle and we had a glimpse of the ocean beyond. The room was tastefully decorated and... more

Just returned from a three-night stay at the Avalon, and, like all the other reviewers, we absolutely loved it. The rooms are beautifully decorated, spotlessly clean, and stocked with everything you need from tea & biscuits to a hairdryer to a flat screen TV. Julie and Peter couldn't be more accommodating. We were traveling with our 18-month-old son, and they... more

Saw the brilliant reviews on Tripadvisor for this place and booked for a couple of nights. We certainly weren't disappointed. Had a gorgeous view of Tintagel Island and the sea. The sunsets were breathtaking from the warmth of our room (bit nippy outside in April). The bed was so comfortable, with clean white crisp bed linen, single quilt each and... more

We booked a night in the Avalon after reading great reviews on Tripadvisor and it surpassed our expectations! We arrived early (about 2pm) but were welcomed warmly and shown to our room straight away. We stayed in room 7 on the top floor which was a beautifully decorated room with AMAZING views over Tintagel island and Castle. No chintz or... more

A work colleague and I stayed at the guest house during some work we were doing in the area for 3 nights, and I have to say it was superb. The hosts couldn't do enough for us. I had the sea view room and the views were excellent and my colleague had a view over the village. The rooms were... more

We stayed here the weekend of 2nd June as we were attending a wedding at Camelot Castle. The whole experience was A1 from initial contact with Julie to leaving (regretfully) when the wedding was over. My only regret was not having eaten dinner at the Avalon as the local choice was n ot great and the menu at the Avalon... more

We stayed here for just a couple of nights recently and would gladly stay again. Very welcoming and very comfortable. The Avalon has been tastefully decorated to a standard that many guest houses can't imagine. Nice little touches (such as ear plugs in the bedside cabinets) made for a very pleasant stay. The Avalon is about 30 secs walk from... more
