Staff let us into the room 4 hours early to get ready at no extra cost! Very greatful and a lovely stay had all round.

    Superb little place So close to the station Had everything we need Beautiful decor Friendly hosts Very safe My son loved the TV! Such an affordable place for us to stay in Penzance, far exceeded the Premier Inn in comfort and style and outshone all other Air BNBs we have stayed at in Penzance as this one was so safe and secure.

    Very close to the train station and handy for the ferry terminal. Good value for an overnight stay at either end of my trip to the Isles of Scilly (shame the ferry times mean that an overnight stay is needed). I would not stay at this Inn for any other reason than travel to the IOS. The breakfast was good and included in the price, not fantastic but good. The room was basic but comfortable. The location handy but not attractive or interesting. Some of the staff were friendly and helpful.

    I loved the cosiness and attention to detail - Louisa was a great hostess and even provided some eggs for breakfast from her precious chickens! It was a gorgeous, clean and inviting place - the perfect home away from home for a solo traveller. I liked that I could explore the immediate surroundings and come back for lunch to save myself a few bob! it was also a great location for the Minnack theatre and the sculpture gardens - Louisa gave me some great tips and ides for excursions and explorations. I had a fabulous time.

    Great location within easy walking distance to both train and bus stations. A very old tavern full of atmosphere, wood and brass and nautically themed. Room was clean and bright with a sea view. Tea, coffee, biscuits and fresh milk provided. Excellent breakfasts, dinners and menu choices. So good we had dinner there every night! . Staff and owner couldn't have been more friendly and helpful. Nothing was too much trouble. We were sorry to leave but will definitely be back!
