    Met every dream I had.

    • Double Room with Sea View
    • Stayed 2 nights

    It was a wonderful 2 days and nights. I slept well, drank well & ate very well. Service was great & friendly people. Only downside was the internet did not work. Something about BT problem being fixed. Still a epic stay and Port Isaac turned on a sunny Sunday too.

    Loved the 500 year old building and location was superb but the owners and staff made it a perfect vacay. Stephen & Donna went above and beyond. Will definitely come back.

    This is a great little hotel right in the heart of Port Isaac. We stayed so that we could have dinner at Fish Kitchen nearby. The staff were excellent and extremely accommodating when I wanted to switch rooms. We didn't eat at the hotel but the food, as we passed through, looked fantastic.

    The food was not good the Burger was deep fried and very poor quality £18 ! My fish cake was rubbery and tasteless . The. Breakfast was deep fried too and I had to send mine back ! Such a shame the food let this lovely little place down .Eat somewhere else . Poor quality and very expensive please take as positive feedback to improve ! Quickly …

    Location was great right on the Slipway , the room was comfortable but cold and very compact ! But very clean and the bed was very comfortable . Right in the Heart of Port Issac ….

    We were the only guests staying at the Slipway for that night. The hosts remained opened on reception to show us around and came in especially for us to have breakfast (which was delicious and made to order). It's not possible to park here, but all of the information via Booking.com was accurate in terms of informing us of this, and where to park. The location was perfect for us as it was easy to leave the car and walk around the small village and harbour, as well direct access to the coastal path. The views from our room were beautiful and the room was well equipped and very clean

    No complaints.

    I stayed in Room 2. Perfect for me - small balcony with view of the harbor. Room was clean and bed was very comfortable. Bathroom is very small, but modern. Not a complaint as they are working with a centuries-old building! I was there in mid-March, so things were pretty quiet. Breakfast was served in the mornings and was very good. Room was stocked with bottled water, tea and instant coffee. Location was perfect for enjoying the village and nearby walking trails. I would definitely stay here again.

    Port Isaac was an idyllic seaside village that deserved a stay of several days.

    • Double Room with Living Area
    • Stayed 2 nights

    Staying there in October meant fewer tourists but also meant a few less shops and cafes were open. Nevertheless, it was a good tradeoff. The need for a taxi from the station was expensive but, hey, what can you do?

    Port Isaac was unbelievably beautiful and great to explore its narrow laneways and tiny houses. The pub was a standout, not only for the usual beers and meals but also for coffee. The Slipway was ideally located with staff who were always friendly and helpful,

    Overall, there was nothing we didn't like. The stairs were a little awkward to carry our luggage over, but that is to be expected in an older structure.

    The staff were friendly and accommodating. The location was ideal. The breakfast was delicious!
