    A Delightful Culinary Experience by the Harbour

    We enjoyed a lovely dinner right on the harbour. The fish & chips were exceptionally good, and the staff made us feel right at home with their warm hospitality. A perfect spot to wind down after a day of exploring—definitely try to grab a table outside if the weather permits!

    heavenly breakfast
    friendly atmosphere

    Couple's cozy getaway

    The breakfast was outstanding, like waking up to heaven on a plate, fresh organic eggs were just a game changer. And the residents were all friendly, it felt like a local pub, not a stranger in sight.

    It wasn't inexpensive, but you know what? It was worth every single penny.

    bar noise
    breakfast inconsistency
    limited parking

    I stayed for two nights in a Classic Double Room. The highlight was the warm and friendly atmosphere created by the staff and locals, making it feel inviting. However, the noise from the bar affected my sleep, and the breakfast quality was inconsistent, which could be improved.

    harbour view
    delicious breakfast
    comfortable room
    parking challenge
    narrow roads

    The stay was quite enjoyable! I loved the beautiful view of the harbour from my room, which was clean and comfortable. The breakfast options were delicious and filling, providing a great start to the day. The location was perfect for exploring the quaint village, and it was easy to get to nearby attractions in Cornwall. the parking situation was a bit challenging, especially given the narrow roads. it was a lovely getaway.

    spectacular views
    hearty breakfasts
    crowded dining area
    occasional noise
    limited availability

    A wonderful place to unwind with spectacular views of the harbour, even on rainy days. The hearty breakfasts were among the best we enjoyed, including options like homemade pasta. The atmosphere was cozy, perfect for relaxing after a day of exploration. The only minor downside was the bustling vibe at times, which made it feel a bit crowded in the dining area. Otherwise, it was a delightful experience!

    Beautiful Views and a Cozy Atmosphere

    We recently enjoyed a delightful four-day stay in a lovely double room with an ensuite, overlooking the harbour. The staff were exceptionally warm and attentive, providing a welcoming atmosphere that made us feel right at home. Breakfast was a highlight with generous portions, ensuring we were well-fueled for our coastal adventures. we did experience some limited menu options at times, which could be improved.

    cozy room
    delightful pub grub
    thin walls

    We enjoyed a lovely stay, the breakfast was incredibly satisfying with homemade granola and the full Cornish breakfast was delightful! The view from our cozy room was unbeatable, and the pub grub, especially the fish and chips, was to die for.
