The Well House

Quietly tucked away deep in the folds of the beautiful Looe Valley in South East Cornwall, The Well House Hotel and Restaurant provides an utterly relaxing retreat, a quiet haven of countryside tranquility set amongst four acres of picture book Cornish gardens with ponds and a gentle stream fed by the Holy Well of St Keyne, winding its way into the valley.

Just off the beaten tourist track, yet not far from the picturesque fishing ports of Looe, Polperro and Fowey, the multi-award-winning luxury country manor house, with 9 superbly appointed bedrooms and a cosy sitting room with marble fireplace, is the perfect place to unwind or for a romantic getaway - with no room numbers on the doors and no racks of tourist leaflets in the hall. Instead, the inviting common areas feature the exceptional works – torso forms, paintings and prints - of three highly acclaimed English and Belgium artists, reminding that Cornwall is renowned for its artistic heritage and has been the inspiration for numerous artists for nearly 200 years.

The excellent garden view restaurant, the only non-coastal one in the whole of Cornwall with an AA 3-Rosette, has scooped many accolades for the creative European menus, taking full advantage of the fresh Cornish harvest from both land and sea and from the estate’s own orchard and gardens.

Situated in the Gateway to Cornwall, the country house is ideally located for nearby Devon’s Dartmoor National Park. The famous Eden Project is also within easy driving distance as are plenty of stunning coastal walks and beaches, beautiful stately homes and the extraordinary Lost Gardens of Heligan along with countless others! And for the more energetic, there’s a club size all-weather tennis court, a fabulous heated outdoor swimming pool and croquet lawns.
