Our Inspector's view

Local sourcing is key at the Spirit restaurant in this handsome townhouse hotel set in charming Mediterranean gardens. Served in a gently updated setting, rare breed meats come from the owners’ farm, while fish and seafood are hauled in daily by local boats to form the bedrock of carefully prepared, fuss-free dishes.

About the area

Discover Cornwall & Isles of Scilly

Cornwall has just about everything – wild moorland landscapes, glorious river valley scenery, picturesque villages and miles of breathtaking coastline. With more than 80 surfing spots, there are plenty of sporting enthusiasts who also make their way here to enjoy wave-surfing, kite surfing and blokarting.

In recent years, new or restored visitor attractions have attracted even more visitors to the region; the Eden Project is famous for its giant geodesic domes housing exotic plants from different parts of the globe, while nearby the Lost Gardens of Heligan has impressive kitchen gardens and a wildlife hide.
