I think they will be quite busy in the season, we had downstairs room and there is a seperate door you can sneak out of. However I think we were upgraded and you might be upstairs? They are very dog oriented however if you plan to do a walk across the valley where you can release your dog be aware the path only gives you a few hundred yards and then you will be into an area of signs saying dogs must be on leads. Of course there is road walking on the lanes and sensational cliff walks at St Agnes and the Cornish Coast Path. Hope this helps. The gardens are lovely.

HI Yes we have local walks around our village and also to the coastal path, which you and join at St Agnes or Perranporth, the walks along the coastal path are stunning. We look forward to meeting you Regards James Evans

The hotel is a fair distance from the coast, so I wouldn't recommend it as a starting point for walking, But a short car drive and there is plenty of great walks. There are several walks suggested in the Hotel book, which you would find in the room. They are between 5-10k long, but I understand hiking to be much longer than that.
