6/10 Good

Good for the location

A one night stay in south Cornwall having stayed in north Cornwall previous nights. Beautiful clean room and bathroom but something missing to make it outstanding. Lovely decoration but lacking in pictures or plants and home comforts. Inn/Bar it's self seemed dingy and uninviting. Location wonderful.

Perfect

Perfect - the Housel room (the rooms has names and not numbers) is very nice, and the Lizard town itself is stunning and a must visit if you are in the area.
