Perfect location if you are returning on the ferry from the Scilly Isles. Great view of the harbor.Nice, old pub.Helpful and friendly staff.
There are only 3 rooms. Very quiet. The room was very clean and the bathroom was newly remodeled. Paris, the host was excellent. Greeted us warmly and showed us to our room. The breakfast was made to order and excellent. We also had our evening meal and it was very good. They stored our luggage safely during the day. It is 50m from the Jubilee Pool.
Nice traditional pub overlooking the ferry port to the Scilly Isles. Room was a good size and very comfortable. We enjoyed a meal in the pub in the evening and we were glad we had booked as it got very busy by 7.30. Decent breakfast in the bar the next morning.
All fine.
Loved this historical place! Our room & bath were large & updated. Located just feet from the ocean, the view from our window was lovely. Best of all was the food & decor in the pup!
Parking was a bit of a challenge.
Very quiet after pub hours great view from the window staff very helpful

the location and food were perfect and the staff were friendly and accommodating.
very close to train/bus station and harbor — could not have been better
We enjoyed it all.
