About the Hotel
Kids at heart will relish Fowey Hall Hotel, part of Luxury Family Hotels. This historic manor inspired Toad Hall in the classic novel, Wind in the Willows. At the same time, the adult in you will be seduced by the sophistication of Baroque plasterwork, French furnishings and elaborate fireplaces. Overlooking the charming port of Fowey on Englandâ€(TM)s South Cornish coast, this treasure is spectacularly located within original walled gardens. It is also a gourmetâ€(TM)s delight, focusing on fresh Cornish produce at the oak-paneled Hansons restaurant and terraced Palm Court.

Reviews for Fowey Hall Hotel
Attractive hotel with extra amenities
Atmospheric, attractive hotel with nice grounds and relaxing pool, and a short (but steep) walk into town. Dinner was well prepared; I had the fish of the day, and a very different yet tasty white chocolate and raspberry bread pudding. Given the amenities, it is not overly expensive either.

Service and food needs attention
After visiting 4 times before the renovations I was excited to return with my family and show them one of my favourite hotels . I was in one of the new rooms that was great , huge bed and great housekeeping . My daughters family were in a suite in one of the older rooms , the housekeeping was not great as the room was not hoovered at all during our stay . My daughters request for a firmer pillow was ignored by 2 staff members who passed the buck to each other and nothing was done ! The food was definitely not as good as it used to be and lovely little touches like the newsletter at breakfast were no longer . The staff are very friendly but the service is poor . On each of the 3 mornings breakfast food and drinks were missed from our orders after a long waiting time . We ate in the restaurant for dinner and on seating us the stressed but nice server told us you need to bear with me im on my own ! Finding a staff member to serve you a drink at other times was difficult . If you wanted a drink by the outdoor pool there was no one around to ask . Out grandaughter went to the bears den which was lovely for her , however its advertised that children up to 8 can go there , if you booked the trip on the premise of enjoying some child free time then its only suitable for 6 years max , there was nothing for a nearly 8 year old to do . He lasted an hour! However he loved the cinema and games room and we felt safe letting him use these for short periods unsupervised. We loved using the spa , however again it fell a little short of our expectations, the outdoor sauna wasn’t turned on or ran out of steam water , the hot tub was cold one day and literally boiling the next , spent time having to find people to report it too . Cups left on tables at 9.30am were still there at 6.30pm . I still love this hotel but were disappointed that it fell short of the luxury that it advertises especially the food and service were disappointing .

Spa day review
What a beautiful place! We had a spa day with afternoon tea here. It was absolutely lovely. The treatments were amazing, the spa therapist was very attentive and it was super relaxing. We had afternoon tea and this was the only slight downside to the day as we were only offered 2 scones each. There wasn’t any sandwiches or savoury items. We decided to upgrade to some fizz but was shocked to believe they add service charge to this!

Amazing weekend and massage
Lovely time spent in Cornwall at this amazing hotel. I had the best, ever deep tissue massage in the Spa by Katrina. I would definitely recommend this treatment by this very professional therapist. The Spa was the highlight of our stay.

Wonderful stay
We had a great week at Fowey hall. We went with our two kids (4 and 6) and they had a blast-there were even tears on the last night that we were leaving. There are lots of nice activities for kids-cinema club every night with popcorn, a games room with pool table, table tennis and arcade games, marshmellow toasting and a daily kids club (although it was slightly babyish for my nearly 7 year old) plus a very nice heated pool (was balmy even at the beginning of April) which the kids spent hours in. We thought the food was great although would be good to change the menu during the week for those who eat in the hotel a lot, lots of nice places to have a cocktail, Diane was an absolute gem the kids loved her and it was walkable to Fowey with the kids which we enjoyed exploring. The only thing I would say to be aware of is the spa-we didn’t come for the spa so it didn’t bother us but it comprises a sauna horsebox (which actually we quite liked but appreciate it is not everyone’s cup of tea) a jacuzzi and a tiny steam room that smelt a bit odd! We will definitely be returning!

We would like to congratulate you on your wonderful staff who have been so nice to us during our two week stay. Not only are they so professional, they are also kind, interesting and have a sense of humor! Nothing seems too much trouble. Thank you.

It was absolutely fantastic – superb food, excellent service and the kids loved the crèche. In fact, it was the first time we’ve left our five-month-old with a "stranger" and they were great with her. Thanks again.
