"Lovely clean place, friendly staff and fantastic rooms. Our room was quite warm but was supplied with a fan. Situated ideally on Porthleven harbour. A bit disappointed having to wait for an hour for food but the staff did apologise and gave us our drinks FOC as a way of an apology. Unfortunately, Iโ€™d passed being hungry so didnโ€™t finish my meal. That said it would not stop me coming back as overall we had a fantastic stay."
