Very large spacious family room. Clean smelt fresh, cream coloured carpets - no marks
Perfect central location, small car park, but found space on both days of our stay.

Could not be a better location. Very close to Tintagel Castle and in the center of town. Staff went out of the way to find alternative choices for my gluten and dairy intolerant sister at breakfast. Big bonus that I could bring my dog.

Location was great, customer service was excellent, food was great, and the place is full of charm!
I have been visiting Port Isaac for over 30 years.
I have been visiting Port Isaac for over 30 years. The sea is very attractive, but the village in general appeared tatty, dirty and not gardened. Some houses have expensive renovations, but are sitting empty! The business were similar, which put us off eating at them. The Golden Lion, is full of unchanged character & a good average meal / pint. The jetty fish shop is also good. The co-op is an asset.

Port Isaac is lovely, but access for anyone with walking problems is difficult. It is very steep and not really accessible by car. Parking is at least 20 minutes away.
The School House is a great place to eat.

Port Isaac is a glorious, historic fishing village in North Cornwall. On the harbour level, you'll find a higgledy-piggledy assortment of lanes packed with beautiful, picture-perfect cottages. Also on this level is the beach/harbour itself, a great pub and several tourist shops and restaurants that specialise in locally caught seafood (including Nathan Outlaw's fantastic restaurant).
On Port Isaac's top levels, you'll find shops and more independent restaurants.
It's a really atmospheric, special place, framed by the rugged Cornish coastline. However, be warned: it gets VERY busy in peak season (a nightmare for parking), so consider a stay during quieter times.

It's such a beautiful place to visit all year round.
It's such a beautiful place to visit all year round. Unfortunately, it happened to me to visit it in autumn but anyway, I enjoyed both visits. I believe in summertime it should be outstanding to be there. I would definitely recommend visiting it if you want an escape from the busy city. I would recommend you to visit the Newquay too. It's worth it.

A beautiful, peaceful village. Cornish people so lovely.
A beautiful, peaceful village. Cornish people so lovely. The village is isolated but depicts everything we know it for on the tv and movies (Doc Martin and Fishermen’s Friends). It does not disappoint. But there is much more. artists, nice eateries and gift shops. Also great history and sense of community. It is a relaxed pace to just chill. There are hills and cobblestones streets - but accessible for most. Take a walking tour to find out about history, movie making and life in the village. No access for cars so you must be able to walk everywhere. Do need to use buses or have a car if you wish to explore more of Cornwall. Transport is an issue. Do your research if you are train travellers. If touring then 1 full day and night in Port Isaac a must. Very safe. Loved it! There is a small Co-op. Suggest you take alcohol eg scotch with you if you feel like drink in your accommodation - as not a lot on offer. A range of restaurants. Such fresh seafood. If you have a self contained unit you can buy fresh and eat in. But restaurants offer seafood specials.

It is a beautiful fishing village with lots of good restaurants and shops. Picturesque! We enjoyed our tour of Doc Martin and seeing the scenes from Fishermen’s Friends movie. We would definitely come again but find a day trip would have covered it along with the terrific hike to Port Quinn.
We used Plain Street Cottage as a base whilst walking on the South West Coastal Path. It was ideally situated near to Port Isaac so that we could park there each day. If we had wanted to use the bus it was also directly on the 56 route which runs between Newquay and Port Isaac. The cottage was very homely and had all of the amenities that we required. Whilst we didn't meet Zoe she gave very clear and timely instructions on how to find the property.
A wonderful location for visiting Port Isaac! No matter where you stay you will be trekking uphill half the time, but the views from the living room and one of the upstairs bedrooms make this location delightful. There is a grocery store only a 3-minute walk away, and Port Gaverne is only a 10-minute walk as well. When we left an item behind the management was very helpful in retrieving it helping us have mailed back to the U.S.
We had an excellent holiday at the Longcross Hotel, the staff, Jamie, Arnie & the rest of the team were so friendly, welcoming and worked really hard to ensure all guests had everything they needed despite covid restrictions.
Beautiful gardens to walk around. Good location for centre of Port Isaac and travelling around Cornwall.
Both breakfast & evening meals served in the restaurant are fabulous.
The views to the sea are extraordinary, even better than the photos. The cottage is very comfortable, well equipped and clean. It’s a great size for a couple or small family. The outside area is spacious and private. Close to Port Isaac and a good location to explore the North Cornwall coast or just relax in the peaceful countryside. Julia and Kevin are extremely considerate and welcoming hosts.
We stumbled upon the Port Gaverne Hotel a few years ago, and we had such a delightful experience then that we booked it again this time. We are from Iowa, USA, and the location of your hotel is a wonderful novelty to us. The magnificent coastline, the cozy diningroom, pub and room, and the friendliness of your staff and patrons will draw us to your establishment again and again. Thank you.
Room enjoys a fabulous view of Port Isaac harbor. The room is tastefully and artistically furnished and decorated. Staff were super friendly and helpful. There's a nice garden to relax in in good weather. A wonderful take-away coffee shop is just below... but it doesn't open until 9:30! And the School House Inn and Restaurant across the street once refused us service as non- resident/guests.
The staff was excellent, they all made me feel like i was at home. The food was excellent and it was right in the middle of port isaac. I came to port isaac to see the beautiful scenery and it was beyound my belief. Im a huge fan of Doc Martin and i had a chance to watch them film and i got to meet several from the cast. I will be coming back to port isaac and will stay at the Slipway again
nothing not to love! wow it was a dream come true to stay here with our family of six. do not hesitate to book this once in a lifetime property! we even loved it so much we got some local seafood and cooked one night of our trip. you can walk to the Harbour with a drink in hand in one minute. the best rental we have ever booked!!! thank you for such a lovely memory we will always treasure
Quality of food was very good at breakfast (particularly liked the overnight oats with fruit compote) and the one evening meal we had, but sadly let down by the indifferent and at times abrupt and offhand service. Hotel situated between Port Isaac and their sister hotel at Port Gaverne directly opposite Nathan Outlaw's New Road restaurant where we had a fantastic meal.
Could not have been happier with this property- it was absolutely beautiful, great location, and perfectly stocked! The views from our bedroom every night/morning were stunning! Parking in Port Isaac is at a premium so having that was very convenient! The restaurants- The Mote, The Slipaway, and The Old Schoolhouse were all delicious and the staff was very friendly!
Location was absolutely superb
Staff were friendly and helpful. The owner even waited an extra hour for our late arrival at the property.
The room was in fact 2 rooms and a bathroom, very spacious with an excellent view of Port Isaac harbour
The rooms were clean and comfortable
There was also a lovely little private raised garden area at the back of the property
It was right near the harbour stunning views from the room.
Stayed in room 5 was lovely comfortable and shower was lovely and big enough not sure what jolly green giants visited from other people reviews I thought it was going to be cramped.
Breakfast was delicious although the guy is little strange maybe just a bit shy??
Fabulous location, stayed over Christmas and lovely treats left for us. So much more room than the photos show. Very warm with lots of added extras as in toiletries etc. Bedding so clean and comfortable and right in the heart of Port Isaac with no noise at all. Can't wait to go back. Also the outhouse is an added bonus.
Beautiful, right near the harbour. Very comfortable and warm , plenty of towels. Kitchen very well equipped. Everything we needed. Even supplied kitchen towels and cloths although we didn't use as had brought our own. Would definitely recommend this property.
