quality wine tasty breakfast easier route
My room had nice biscuits alongside still and fizzy Cornish water. Access to the town involved navigating steps, yet there was also an easier route for morning exploration. The breakfast included fresh, tasty English options EACH day.
The noise from the pub, due to open mic night, was present until midnight.

popular quiz free parking coffee machine cornish water
the pub hosted a popular quiz night. nearby street parking was available and free. the room featured different teas, a coffee machine, biscuits and cornish water. accessing the town required navigating 192 steps, while an easier route was found later.
the room was above the main bar area and very noisy until late due to open mic night.

Wonderful Stay Above a Lively Pub

equipped room good location
I enjoyed the well-equipped room and how much our dogs liked it. The location is good for getting to town though it is called Jacobs Ladder for good reason. There are many stairs to climb for those wanting a fitness test but there is an easier route if needed.
The limited breakfast choice required immediate ordering upon arrival. There were not many options available to select from.
Rooms

The room was clean and bright with ample tea and coffee choices. The bed was comfortable and the temperature was warm. A full English breakfast was a nice and filling option.
Dining

The food was fabulous. There was a fabulous roast and a great range of quality well priced wines. I heard they will soon be brewing their own ales.
