Rooms

Bedruthan’s 101 rooms consist of double rooms, sea view and non-sea view, interconnecting rooms (perfect for large families or groups), sea view villas and sea view family rooms. There are also apartment suites available, located in their own block next to the main hotel. Bedrooms have a contemporary, comfortable design; those with views over the Atlantic Ocean offer a stunning view any time of the day. Said views can be enjoyed throughout the hotel so don't worry if they are all booked out!

Facilities include the tried and tested baby listening service in every room and yes it works (thank-you Aggie), microwaves can be found conveniently around the hotel for warming bottles and baby food. You can also hire all-terrain buggies to save on that precious car boot space.

Eat

The Wild Café serves tasty and modern food inspired by the Cornish landscape and seasons and is the perfect place for relaxed eat time. Here you will be served breakfast, lunch, dinner and children’s teas - the views from the floor to ceiling windows are inspiring and good for distracting not very hungry little ones. The Cafe presents a fabulous breakfast bar each morning with cooked and fresh everything - the girls loved it, as did I, though after a week here I'd be worried about rolling home. You will definitely be fuelled up for a day in the surf.

The Herring Restaurant is fabulous and serves up the best of seasonal local produce accompanied by an impressive wine list. This space is for grown-ups, so book a baby-sitter or the listening service and book a table. The intimate atmosphere is perfect for a quiet night catching up, and for those who want to sample the finest of Cornish food, while taking in the striking sunset it cannot be beaten. Prior booking is essential. Two and three-course menu available.

Evening entertainment is available but simply sat with a glass of whatever enjoying the view outside the bar is actually pretty darned difficult to beat after a busy day on the beach, or in the pool, or on the play ground…

Activities

There is always plenty to do at Bedruthan. Active kids will be in their element with indoor and outdoor pools, surf lessons, indoor and outdoor play areas, Mawgan Porth beach close by, a games room, a cinema room, a tennis court, as well as a jam-packed activities programme during the school holidays.

Accessibility

Bedruthan is built into the side of a steep cliff face meaning that the hotel rooms and facilities are on a number of different levels. They do have specially adapted rooms available for guests, and the main three floors are accessible by a lift, however, there are still areas that are not totally accessible to wheelchair users. The team at Bedruthan are keen to make sure all guests have the perfect stay, so if you have accessibility needs, call their friendly reservations team.

Owner recommendations

We highly recommend having a surf lesson. Ask at King Surf located below us on the beach.
Walk along the South West Coastal Path to Bedruthan Steps. It’s a dramatic landscape you’ll never forget.
The Eden Project was a clay pit and was transformed into incredible biomes and gardens. It’s definitely worth seeing.
Padstow is a picturesque seaside village. Get a speedboat, hire a bike or simply take in the view.
The Lost Gardens of Heligan is a stunning natural playground with over 200 acres to explore.
Mawgan Porth beach just down the hill from us.
