A Mawnan Smith hotel is celebrating recent gold achievements at the Taste of the West Awards.

The luxury retreat near Falmouth achieved double gold at the awards in both the Hotel and Restaurant categories.

Hotel Meudon, which reopened under new ownership in May 2021 following an extensive refurbishment, was described by the judge as providing, "an exceptional guest experience".

The judge continued:

"From the initial booking of the room to the greeting on arrival the whole experience left us thinking that this hotel was something rather wonderful and we can't wait to return."

Special mention went to the wonderful team:

"In my many visits to hotels in the South West, I have never witnessed the whole team of staff of this calibre."

Speaking about Restaurant Meudon, the judge went on to say:

"The food was excellent, the presentation and service were really 'as good as it gets' in our view. Michelin quality.

"This was a truly wonderful meal from start to finish supported by a waiter and waitress whose skills were very evident, their knowledge and professionalism was a treat to witness, phenomenal."

General Manager, Samantha Banks, was overjoyed with the results. She added:

"To win these awards and receive such delightful praise during our first year of trading is incredible and we are absolutely thrilled, to put it mildly. Well done team."
