I discovered the Bay View Inn on the second evening of a recent trip to Cornwall the food, staff…read moreand atmosphere were so good that while we were there we booked for every evening for the rest of our stay. The staff really are friendly and can't do enough for you. The location is stunning overlooking Widemouth Bay and with plenty of outside seating to enjoy the beautiful views. The food was absolutely fantastic, so much so that if I lived close by I'd be there at least once a week. One evening I tried the gammon steak which was a monster of a meal the gammon, which itself was a 12oz whopper and at least 2 inches thick, came with double fried eggs, pineapple rings, onion rings, chips and salad. It was all delicious but needless to say I couldn't eat it all. The portions are massive, the quality of food is excellent and the price is more than reasonable, I'd definitely recommend this place and if I ever find myself in Cornwall again I'll be making a bee line for the Bay View Inn!

We ate at the restaurant for New Year's Eve. Table at 6.45, we had 2 courses and had left by 7.40…read more The starters were promising. I had the haddock scotch egg and my wife had the mackerel. Both were good. The mains left a lot to be desired. I ordered the fillet of beef medium rare but it came out well done. It was accompanied by half a roasted parsnip, half a roast potato and a small dumpling. The beef was over done and for £35 you'd expect a bit more substance. My wife's tuna fillet was cooked well but the 'warm watercress and spring onion noodle salad' was stone cold. For £25 it could have been better The goujons from the kids menu were good and my daughter enjoyed them. My other daughter ordered the pizza for £7.95. 2 pieces of glorified cheese on toast for £7.95 is not a meal. All in all I spent £131 in less than an hour and didn't have much to tell for it. Disappointing as we have eaten there a couple of times before and it has been good.

I didnt stay at the hotel, and unfortunately, we arrived a bit too early to eat dinner, so cant really provide any reviews relating to either of those things. What I can however talk about is the thrill and sheer exuberance I felt, walking around in the parking lot of the Old School Hotel, seeing the Doc's house, the lovely Harbor bay below, Bert and Al Large's restaurant - it was like visiting an old familiar house! The staff here were super friendly, even when I do think the must get super tired of all the gawking tourists, and cant wait to come back here another time and hopefully this time, experience dinner too!

In any case, I came here without a reservation, and I was promptly assigned to the Chemistry room. The room was small (but I did ask for the cheapest they had), but I remember how comfortable it was. I was a big fan of all the pillows on the bed, into which I sank with pleasure. It had an ensuite bathroom, and it was very warm and cozy. I especially liked the view across the harbor. They had a very nice little bar near the reception, and the dinner I had there (fish) was elegant and excellent. A nice couple from Cornwall that I had drank with earlier even invited me to join them. I still remember the conversation. I'd highly recommend staying here while in Port Iaasic.

Overnight I've become a huge fan of this chain of budget hotels which I only discovered by accident…read morewhen surfing the internet. Vastly superior to Travelodges though sometimes almost as cheap, or even cheaper when they offer special deals (three nights for the price of two, etc). The rooms are clean, spacious and comfortable, with plenty of storage and a superior standard of furniture and fittings. Our room had a telephone, large flat-screen TV, tea and coffee making facilities with lots of teabags, hot chocolate and fresh biscuits each day. In addition to the large bed was a plush two-seater settee. The en-suite had a large power shower and, again, the tiling and fittings were of a high standard for a budget hotel. There's a modern lift to rooms (very good disabled access), beautiful carpets and curtains, and a foyer with local information and a sweets and chocolate machine. Breakfast came free with the room rate and was served across a short walkway in the Jack Rabbit pub. It consisted of a continental-style buffet with an excellent choice of cereals, fruit juices, fresh fruit, yoghurt, breads, toast, preserves and croissants. A machine provided good quality teas or coffees. You can eat as much as you wish and there are helpful staff on hand to assist if need be. A free newspaper (Daily Mail) was also available each day. All in all, a superb value package at only £89 for 3 nights (the special offer this month)! Certainly a chain to watch - there are 200 branches around the country and more planned.

Very popular during the season for lunches and evening meals, so you'll often find it very busy indeed. They also do a really excellent Sunday lunch.

Note* If you have difficulty navigating stairs, this may not be the place for you as there are no lifts. The bedroom was nice, but boy, the beds were firm!! My back didn't like that. Also, the only thing separating the toilet from the bedroom was a louvered bi-fold door. That made for an interesting experience! We were on the very top floor, so due to the ceiling angle there was no shower, but a tub with a spray was available. No air conditioning, but luckily the weather had cooled enough for that day so we didn't melt. :) The breakfast was very, very nice even though it only lasts for 45 minutes from 8:30-9:15! Better set your alarm. ;) There is a small pool table in the 2nd parlor to help keep yourself entertained. The pool was drained and closed when we visited last week which seemed odd. Shouldn't a pool be open in July? About 15-20 minutes drive to Port Isaac (where Doc Martin is filmed) and about the same in the opposite direction for Tintagel Castle. All in all, a brief yet relaxed stay. :)

We were booked here through a KGB voucher for 2 nights. The hotel location is excellent as it is…read morewalking distance from the beach and a few minutes from town and all the restaurants. We have found reception and all restaurant staff extremely helpful. With the voucher we had a 2 course meal which we both felt was great value with a reasonable choice of starter and main. We also chose a very nice wine at a very reasonable cost. The room was as expected reasonable size with a good quality small LCD TV. Breakfast is at 8.30 which we thought would be a problem as all guests were to arrive then. it wasn't, the staff are really well organised and orders were taken very quickly, and food arrived just after. Great breakfast, well done. This hotel does exactly as you would expect. There are a reasonable amount of reasonable shops to enjoy all nearby and a great selection of coffee shops and restaurants. Thank you for a superb stay in Bude.
