Good Hotel Guide Review
The hotel experts at the Good Hotel Guide
‘In a stunning location overlooking Carne Beach’, with subtropical gardens leading to the shore, the Ashworth family's country-house hotel by the sea never fails to please readers with its timeless charms. It is ‘an expensive, luxury hotel, and, in many respects, rather old fashioned’, writes one. Another says it is 'the staff who make it so special'. 'Every single one of them seems to make it their business to treat you as if you were staying in their own home.' From country-view rooms to sea-view suites, the style is classy and traditional, with books, magazines, flowers and fruit, armchairs, a Roberts radio. You can dine à la carte in the Quarterdeck restaurant or on the terrace. In the dining room there is a five-course fixed-price dinner menu, and 'being able to choose from a glorious selection of cold hors d'oeuvres and then later a sumptuous selection of puds is true luxury'. Readers write of 'excellent Cornish fillet of beef and cheese trolley' and a ‘sumptuous selection of puds’. You can take a trip in one of the hotel's boats or play tennis with a sea view. (Peter Govier, RA, and others)
'Get Away From It All' Special Offer
The Nare is a tranquil haven where time stands still and your every need is pampered to. The ultimate way to relax and unwind is the four day Get Away From It All break, which runs from October to April every year (excluding Christmas and New Year). The Carne Bay Spa is located in a quiet corner of the hotel where you will find a calming treatment room and a full menu of therapies. Come and stay four nights in luxurious surroundings overlooking Carne Beach, enjoy two treatments of your choice in the spa, swim in the pool, relax in the outdoor hot tub, or just sit in one of The Nare's comfortable lounges by the fire and enjoy the view with a good book. Take advantage of the extensive facilities; indoor pool, outdoor hot tub, steam room, sauna or the gymnasium which gives you enough equipment to raise your pulse as often as you need. If you prefer to exercise in the open air, the tennis court is always open. Alternatively, one only has to walk to the end of the garden to find the coastal path which offers instant access to some of Cornwall's most beautiful walks. Why not run along Carne Beach, which is over a mile long when the tide is out - or for those less energetic, a gentle stroll across the beach may well be enough? Prices start from £570.00 per night in a Country View room for the four nights, inclusive of dinner, room, full English breakfast, afternoon Cornish cream tea, four one hour treatments (two treatments per person), and VAT. Rates are based on two people sharing. Sea view rooms and suites and single rooms are also available. For a full menu of treatments and to enquire about making a reservation please email stay@narehotel.co.uk or call 01872 501111. Please mention The Good Hotel Guide when booking.
