Beach and Location

Pros:

• "Always so clean and beautiful, especially when the tide is out!"
• "Beautiful beach suitable for all of the family."
• "The most perfect location. Long private beach with soft golden sand."

Cons:

• "One thing no soap in toilets to wash hands properly and it says no dogs allowed but dogs was on there."
• "Nice beach, plenty of lifeguards, but shame about public toilets, and the beach, no proper water, no hand cleaning facilities."
• "Toilets are pretty good but do whiff a bit especially late on."
• "Toilets let the beach down they could do with major updating."
• "First visit this year to tolcarne I come here but bit disappointed dog mess on the beach and dogs on beach says no dogs."
• "We found the information on the website misleading, we was expecting the beach to be private which it wasn’t."
• "I was expecting more from it. It was nice and isolated. Sand had a nice feeling but I've found some rubbish here and there."

Accommodation

Pros:

• "The cabins are out of this world, on the beach and very clean."
• "We are staying in cabin No.9. It is just a little piece of heaven."
• "Stayed 4 night's in one of the self catering beach apartments in December, lovely and cosy for watching the storms roll in."
• "The upper floor en-suite bedroom is super. Great views over the sea and beach."
• "The accommodation is spotlessly clean... lovely fluffy towels and crisp white linen."
• "They are roomy, spotlessly clean despite the inevitable ingress of sand when entering from the beach, decorated in fascinating detail with polished wooden floors."
• "The room was immaculate and had everything we needed, from towels and shampoos to a record player and sunloungers in our beach garden."

Cons:

• "For 2 people it wasn't bad but for a family, it might be a bit cramped."
• "Beware though - the photos make the apartment look bigger than reality."
• "The kitchen is MINUTE…it is not possible to cook for a houseful."
• "The bedrooms on the lower floor are tiny and with no view except for a walkway which means one has to keep the curtains closed."
• "Apartments are well kept & have a nice theme but are a bit outdated inside in respect of appliances tv bed etc.."
• "The ensuite shower head was far too large for the shower cubicle itself."
• "Been a couple of times & nothing special for what you pay at all."

Staff and Service

Pros:

• "The staff are great; friendly and very helpful, kindly arranging taxis for us back from Jamie’s in Watergate Beach and Rick Stein’s in Padstow."
• "The staff in the restaurant were superb."
• "All the staff were just amazing."
• "The staff could not of been nicer made us feel so welcome."
• "The staff are all so very cheeful, helpful and attentive to every request or query and really give the impression that they all feel part of a happy family."
• "Staff were amazing; had problem with WiFi, they fixed it as soon as they knew it was playing up."
• "Everyone at Tolcarne are so helpful and made our stay so stress free."

Cons:

• "No cask ales which is disappointing."
• "I would have given 5 Stars but food waiting times were a little long."
• "Price wise it needs to be a hell of a lot more realistic especially during summer & with its last minute deals off season."
• "My only gripe would be Colonial restaurant -menu more variety required but that didn’t spoil our stay."
• "Only downside was hearing the chefs at the back swearing and talking rudely from the kitchen."
• "Unfortunately poor organisation and staffing in the kitchen let itself down."
• "I reserved and payed for 3 nights in August only to have my booking cancelled today. No reason, no communication."
