The Ferry House Inn

I stayed here with the boyff on a Saturday night. When we arrived I wasn’t quite sure where we went in to check in as clearly there is a bar where the locals were eating and watching the football, but nowhere obvious to go to.
Anyway, we asked at the bar and said we could check in there, so we did.
I have to say the bar had a feel of the Legion type bar to it, all a bit messy and could do with a lick of paint. Just dated and old and I wouldn’t necessarily want to eat in there. The prices of the drinks surprised me too, £3:95 for a double Smirnoff plus mixer which I thought was a bit steep especially as this was a) not London and b) not at all posh.
I went to the toilet and they were grim, as were the men’s (boyff reported back) that actually were dismal indeed. As in mouldy and rank.
Throughout the downstairs there were damp blown bubbles all over the place and I didn’t want to put my drink down or touch anything.
I was dreading the room…
However, what a lovely surprise. Like super lovely. They have obviously just all been kitted out and redone to a high standard, lovely big comfy beds decent TV.
En Suite was done out nicely too.
Shame the extractor fan in the shower didn’t work that well as I was totally steamed out within minutes so had to open the window and door to let some air in.
No ironing board or iron, but the welcome guest book said there was one at reception (where is this blinking reception?!).
Health and safety — There was no fire plan displayed in the room, a sizeable gap under the door and no plugs tested.
The corridor was painted bright blue and with a striped carpet which made you feel like you were at a seaside resort :)
However the kitchen is right by the stairway and it smells rather rank.
I genuinely liked the room, bit expensive to be fair though for what it is. I’d have rather stayed closer the city centre.
Breakfast was cheap quality sausage and bacon, sausage was the really cheapo type and bacon tough as old boots. They had cereals but not continental.
So, the décor of the room was lovely, but the price, cheap food and the cost of it, I won’t be going back.

A great little Pub serving a good range of food, which is really well presented at terrific prices. If the weather ever allows it there is an outdoor seating area overlooking the Tamar. The pub also has a separate dining area for a more formal dining experience.
The juke box has a massive range of music and no matter how obscure your choice it will be there.

Another pub that enjoys the awesome view across to Cornwall, this friendly pub serves Doom Bar.
I feel like I have given the pub a very short review, but it was either that or copying and pasting 90 percent of this review (
