Overall Ratings & Reviews Polurrian on the Lizard

My wife and I had an amazing holiday experience. This hotel boasts a beautiful location overlooking the sea and the b dramatic Cornish coastline. The staff are super friendly and simply do everything in their power to make your stay memorable. The food is excellent and the amenities top notch. We will be returning next year as will a number of our friends.

We enjoyed our stay at this hotel.

Booked this hotel for our 2nd wedding anniversary and wife's birthday, yes we also got married here. The room allocated, and we are keeping that a secret, was the most amazing room we have stayed in here. Views are exceptional, bed was clover, facilities comprehensive, and very clean, that sets the tone for the rest of the hotel. Helen and Jenna, staff within the bar / restaurant mingled with the guests making sure all there needs were met, even fetching drinks and food. I loved the choice of teas at breakfast. Breakfast, everything I love, except the bacon was not cooked as I like it. No problem I just ordered something else the other days, and discovered I love Eggs Benedict. Did I say the views are amazing? The grounds are very well kept with plenty of seats to relax on. Watched the sunset on the longest day, along with all the other guests, and those in the wedding party. We have used the outdoor pool and walked to the sandy beach which was almost empty. On this visit the spa was not used, nor did we use the games room and pool table. Already booked for 2026 and added an extra day.

Stunning views.

Was a fabulous trip. The hotel staff were all very friendly and helpful. Love the decor in the hotel. We had a seaview room, amazing view. My only concern was the net curtain in the bathroom covering the window. It was very easy for me to see through, so i assume it would be easy to see in. So with that in mind, there was no privacy in the bathroom. We were above the bar area outdoor tables so it felt a worry. But other than that, the room was a delight. So 5 star apart from that 1 thing.

Lovely hotel, we were upgraded to the Shearwater with a hot tub ! Beautiful views over the coast. We had dinner in the restaurant and it was very good, freshly cooked and delicious. Our waiter was friendly & efficient. Highly recommended.

Enjoyed a lovely stay at the polurrian. Great location, very dog friendly and a great breakfast. Will definitely stay again.

Lovely place Amazing location

N/a

This is a fantastic hotel, with a superb location overlooking the Atlantic. Everywhere is clean, the food quality is excellent and the bedrooms are comfortable and well-equipped. The hotel’s Vista room, apart from having spectacular views from all tables, has some great quirky memorabilia, including two seat compartments from an old fairground waltzer. Personally, I also love the Chopper bike on the wall! The Afternoon Tea is probably the best we’ve ever had - generous and an excellent selection. All the staff are friendly and welcoming. Thoroughly recommended.

Lovely afternoon tea. Maggie at reception was so helpful- well everyone was. Great time here in most beautiful location

From checking in to checking out this has been a really great stay. All the staff have been polite, friendly and helpful. The room was spotless, light and airy with a fantastic view. A very comfy bed for a good nights sleep. Even though we didn’t dine in the restaurant the food we saw coming out looked fantastic and would plan to dine in next time. Breakfast was great with plenty for all to enjoy from continental to the full English and even vegan full breakfast. There are also some very scenic walks from the hotel and a beautiful garden to wander or sit in. Certainly worth a visit.

Great location next to the Coast Path and with lovely views from the restaurant and terrace. Room comfortable clean and well appointed. Staff very helpful but catering a bit chaotic at breakfast and in the evening. Accommodation good value, but drinks expensive.

Beautiful old hotel. Great bathrooms. Great food!

Stunning location overlooking the sea with access to coast path and beach. Excellent food and drink. Friendly and helpful staff

This hotel is very well suited for families. So the pool was unavailable during our stay. The rooms are spacious if a little tired. The walk down to the beach and the sea views are amazing. A gin and tonic on the terrace with an incredible sunset was the perfect evening. Lots of choice at breakfast. Wouldn't hesitate to visit again.

Fabulous stay , gorgeous room. Hotel decor was lovely, Will definately return.

Mostly great, breakfast service was a bit haphazard, clearly nobody in charge. Not everything available at 8.00. Had to ask for butter. Menu says breakfast is from 7.30. Long wait to take breakfast orders. Light outside front door on during the day, off at night when you need it. Lights at front gate have glass hanging out. Needs attention to detail, I.e. management.

Super place with great food, impeccable service and great walks

We had an amazing stay with the hotel set in fantastic surroundings. The room had a great view towards the sea and we were fortunate to have some nice sunshine and a sunset despite it only being February. The staff were very attentive at both the reception and dining areas. Would highly recommend and we hope to visit again sometime.
