An old building but the rooms were good. Parking was easy. You can walk into town in about 15-20 minutes - reasonably effort with some slight inclines and the lovely walk using Love Lane right next door.

The room was very small although a fridge was provided which was useful. The room just fitted a double bed with room for I’ve person to move around at a time. The room and bathroom were however very clean. Had to turn the fridge off overnight as the mouse kept us awake.

We stayed in a cabin at the Pirate Inn Penzance. It was brilliant. You could feel the cleanliness. . Everything you needed for a stay was in the cabin, toiletries, kettle, tea, coffee, milk, biscuits, get the idea it was all there ' hairdryer, fridge , little brush & dustpan. Really rea.ly comfortable place to stay. We had dinner at the inn, just a few steps from the cabin. . A good selection on the menu and nice welcoming staff.
