The room had an amazing view of the river, the bed was very comfortable. The toilet seat was loose and the water had a mouldy taste. The staff were courteous and very busy. The breakfast was bland, they only had instant coffee and no brown sauce. There was nobody available to talk to about the room as they prefer everything to be done through email.

Had a lovely clean room overlooking the river unfortunately had an issue with the heating. This was dealt with by Laura.who relocated us to another room within minutes. Overall the staff were absolutely brilliant nothing was too much trouble and the carvery on Sunday evening and breakfast on Monday morning were 1st class and good value if it wasn't so far from home we would be regular visitors

Nice room, clean and quiet. Staff in the pub were very pleasant. Food was good, but bar prices are disgracefully high. Over £10 for a standard size glass of dry white wine cannot be justified.

Picturesque place by the river. Very quiet and a great place to stay with a family, as the miniature railway for children is just across the road by the bridge. The chalet we stayed in needs a little update and TLC, but was very clean and tidy. Very good large dining area and the choice for both adults and children was good.

The kettle appeared to blow a fuse just by switching on. This was rectified by "throwing a switch in another room", but I would suggest that the cause should be fully investigated by a qualified electrician! More than adequate parking at this time of year.

I was staying for 1 night as a stop-over on way to Falmouth. The accommodation didn't look great from outside but the rooms were clean with decent space and patio doors onto a small veranda and a shared green space with access to the pub gardens. The riverside pub was good - nice to sit out and enjoy the evening sun. Food was disappointing - £16 for an underwhelming burger. I would recommend - especially at this price point and would definitely stay again.

Fisherman's Cot is in a stunning setting and could be beautiful. Unfortunately it is in desperate need of an upgrade. Rotting woodwork, flaking and rusting ironwork, power lines hanging across the site, unswept areas and litter spoil an idylic setting. The staff are mainly very helpful and pleasant, but obviously under pressure too. Some staff need training in customer service and attention.
