Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

A massive thank you to all the team that helped to make our wedding such a special and unforgettable event, You honestly went above and beyond with everything and accommodated us in every way possible. We can’t thank you enough for how much you looked after my parents on the days leading up to the wedding - they were so impressed with everything. The day itself ran perfectly and it's down to all the hard work of the staff and we are so grateful for this. Everyone commented on how incredible the food was and the guests that stayed were blown away by the rooms. After the wedding day everyone continued to accommodate us in every way possible and it really rounded off the perfect wedding before the start of our honeymoon.

Firstly I’d like to say the food was wonderful. I had a roast turkey dinner that was superb, the setting is wonderful and the place was beautifully decorated for Christmas and almost all the staff were wonderful! I was disappointed that the price set was £28 for a three course meal, whether you have one course or three, the price remains the same. I can’t manage to eat three courses - therefore paid exactly the same for my one course meal as those having 3 courses. The web site gives lunch prices starting at £20 and indicates you can have just one course, that’s obviously not the case. We were all given bread rolls, without being asked, nobody ate them and they were cleared away with the food after the main course as waste. When we booked we were a party of 4 and we had paid £ 10 per person deposit, but last weekend one of our party died ~ when I mentioned this as we were paying the bill, not really asking for the deposit back, but thinking it would be a nice gesture, the person taking our payment, didn’t even look at me, just said sorry, that will be £65 or whatever the balance was. Truthfully, I was more upset by his attitude rather than the fact he didn’t refund the deposit! Finally we were charged an additional £3.85 (I think it was ) for a cup of coffee after our meal. Maybe no bread roll and coffee included in the price?? All in all a lovely experience spoiled by, in my view, overcharging or a poor charging policy, and some simple customer care errors. I am truly conflicted as to whether I’d go back ~ I think probably I won’t! I ended up paying over £35 for a simple roast dinner and a coffee, more importantly I felt disappointed at the lack of empathy shown by the person taking our payment. A simple error that could have turned a complaint into a compliment and has already resulted in one cancelled return visit!

Beautiful location, really attentive service. Try the ham hock, chicken parfait starter! Best I've had. The lunch menu is vast, but seemed very fresh. Try and get a window seat, overlooking the beautiful grounds. Will definitely try again.

Went to St Elizabeth house restaurant for celebration meal. Ordered the prawn cocktail for starters and it was the most unusual prawn cocktail I have ever had, there was a strange jelly like substance on the plate,which never in my years of having this starter have I ever seen. Still we thought different restaurants do try alternative ways to prepare things nowadays, so ate it. However when the main meal came I found it hard to try and eat as it tasted awful. We were told that they would take our drinks off the bill as way of apology for the meal but I said I was happy to pay for the drinks because I was able to drink them but I wasn’t paying for a meal I couldn’t eat. I was told that was their policy and she couldn’t do anything about it. Needless to say I shall not be returning to this restaurant, where customer care seems to be low on their list of priorities. There are many other restaurants in the area that do care about the quality of their meals and care about their customers.

This was the first time we came here and what a beautiful place it is. From start to finish the staff were friendly and professional. Our room was amazing which was the Longbrook Junior Suite which had two roll top bathtubs next to each other with a huge walk in rain shower with complimentary toiletries. Only annoying thing was lack of shelving for our personal toiletries/toothbrushes etc and a decent light for applying make up. Plus the double doors made such a racket each time you went through them. The bedroom was luxurious with a deep comfortable mattress with complimentary chocolate on arrival. One small bottle of water for two people seems a little lacking in thought also the total lack of drawer space in the bedroom. This can be remedied easily though as the room is large enough for a chest of drawers, this will also solve the lack of space to put other personal bits and pieces. Now for the best part - the food. It was absolutely delicious and not small portions either. The price is very respectable and a good and varied choice to be had. I did see an Afternoon Tea being served to some guests and it looked amazing! I am a real foodie and expect a certain quality and you get this here. Maybe that is why restaurant booking is extremely advisable. There is a dress code and the ambiance is good here and good for romance as well as get togethers with family and friends. They have a drinks menu but when at the bar I saw that there were many more drinks available so that needs updating and also a larger variety of cocktails would be good too. After our dinner we sat in the bar and listened to some music playing whilst having drinks and talking and the ambience was lovely specially when they dimmed the lighting and put in the special lighting. The breakfast in the morning was equally lovely with an array of continental cuisine alongside cereals, fruit juices, fresh fruit, yogurt. The hot food is cooked fresh which include the usual breakfast items, I had a cheese and ham omelette which was delicious.

We went for dinner mid-week. Absolutely delightful- perfect service, beautiful setting and superb food. Quite an extensive menu but the food served was presented well and didn’t taste reheated. It was our first visit but it won’t be our last!

Staff were lovely, friendly and accommodating. The hotel grounds are beautiful with lots of parking but little lighting outside when going to the car later in the evening if you need to! We stayed in the Longbrook room, the room was lovely and clean and smelt fresh. Its a spacious room with robes (although they state large there quite small!), two baths, twin sinks and large shower. The rooms need updating. No USB charger ports, two of the four blinds in the room didn’t work, no aircon so was very warm and the fan didn’t really do anything. The mattress dipped into the middle. Tea/Coffee is in the wardrobe that then has to be moved to the table to use, but the table is already crammed with items. The bathroom window is starting to rot and doesn’t open. The shower is spacious but water pressure is not great. Toiletry supplies are rather basic. Lighting in either the bedroom or bathroom to do hair/makeup is awful. Food was a buffet and was OK, however i do know the food during the day is fantastic although the menu needs updating. The breakfast was average. Continental and full english. Full english was one sausage (not of good quality) two pieces of bacon that were dry, two table spoons of baked beans, a hard poached egg and 6 small mushrooms! We paid £160 for B&B, we wouldn’t return and wouldn’t recommend this hotel venue.

Amazing as always, front of desk through to restaurant and bar service. Truly outstanding in every way. Menu selection off the scale, highly recommend crispy pork belly and the fillet steak, be sure to make room for a starter and desert. Best night sleep, sumptuous bedroom with rain shower and some rooms have a roll top baths. Wonderful and best hotel by far!

What an absolutely gorgeous venue for a family wedding, which we attended at the end of July. Beautiful building, helpful - and tolerant - staff who went the extra mile for our lovely wedding couple, and lovely grounds to wander through. Our room was tastefully decorated and the large bed in our room so comfortable. The day went perfectly, thanks to all the above, and the 'wedding breakfast' was a delight, really first class, so breakfast the following day was something to look forward to, but what a disappointment. Now, on such an occasion one doesn't want to sour the event, and this was so good, so splendid, that a poor breakfast could hardly diminish the success of the weekend, and it doesn't. My expectations however had by now been so elevated that the offerings by hard-working breakfast room staff, were a complete let down. Bacon fatty and undercooked, eggs hard, very hard round small shapes of 'egg stuff', sausage undercooked, both the beans seemed to be OK, and the toast eateable. I'm taking nothing from the front end staff but I really, No I really could have cooked the breakfast, even for this amount of people better than this. To be honest, I heard no other complaints and so perhaps everyone was satisfied or maybe more polite than me, but our following 3 breakfasts at the Pot & Barrel B&B in Bude cooked by a one man army ('cook & bottle washer') were a mile better and contained a missing ingredient at St Eliz's - taste. If you can afford it, do stay at St Elizabeth House and relax in fine surroundings, but good luck with breakfast.

This is the second time we've stayed here. The rooms are spacious, dinner and afternoon tea are delightful. The staff is great - Tuti, Helen, Maddy, Chrisitian, Decion, Anakaar, Ellie amd others; they all went above and beyond, are friendly, kind and helpful. They would be a credit to any hotel! We love the spacious grounds and the tranquil setting. The Darcy garden room, with its great light, is a wonderful location for afternoon tea and other social gatherings. The hotel has a history of successfully hosting wedding receptions, no sutprise given its outstanding chef and its staff's desire to satisfy your every need. Don't deny yourself this wonderful experience!
