Operations director James Parker was delighted with the award. He said: "It is a great privilege to have such a view of St Ives and the stunning coastline below.

"Visitors from near and far get a huge amount of pleasure from the panorama, whether they are staying or simply enjoying a cream tea with us. Ours is a secret that we are delighted to share."

Eleven awards were given by hotel booking specialist LateRooms.com, ranging from best service to comfiest bed, from almost 3,000 properties nominated by the hotel-staying public.

The Scarlet, at Mawgan Porth, won the "best eco credentials" category.
