Housel Bay Hotel

Amazing location overlooking bay with direct access onto coastal path. Beautiful . The public lounges were lively with views of garden and bay. However the decor of bedroom tired and need refurbishing. Bed needs replacing

Food and service very good. Location second to none. Dated small room with creaking floorboards. Fog horn from lighthouse kept us awake during one night of wet weather.

beautiful spot- would highly recommend visit to the lizard peninsula and the hotel . We had a beautiful view from our room and the staff were helpful and friendly. Food was excellent . hotel bedroom was pretty small considering it was the ocean view room but the bed was very comfortable . En suite was also bit tight space wise but shower was good. As hotel is near the lighthouse we were woken a couple of times during our stay by the fog horn at 4 am .Maybe the rooms at the back of the hotel wouldnt have this issue but then you would miss out on the spectacular view. Hotel location is great for coastal path walking and trip to kynance cove and we were lucky enough to see plenty seals at lizard point. Loved our stay!

Room was comfortable, food was good, and the location was perfect.

The room

Location of the hotel is spectacular. Overlooks the sea with direct access to the SW coastal path. Staff were all lovely and very accommodating. Good selection of choice at breakfast which was included in our stay. Overall, thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

It was amazing, the most relaxing hotel I’ve ever stayed in! The room and bathroom etc are in desperate need of modernization (which is made clear on the website) but other than that it was a perfect 3 nights. The parking was restricted due to visitors coming in for food (food delicious!) but they did their best to accommodate us. Staff were lovely, very helpful and friendly. Tried to book in for another stay but fully booked on the dates we could do! Will definitely go back :)

The views are amazing and the terrace is a lovely place to spend breakfast. Drinks are reasonably priced and I would say the food is probably expensive for what it is, the fish is paired with accompaniments that have strong flavours and both agreed that you couldn't really taste the fish. The accommodation is a let down, as other reviews have said the hotel is tired. The floorboards are uneven, move under foot and are squeak and the walls are vey thin. We were 'lucky' to have neighbours who woke up at 6am and put the TV on which sounded as if it was in our room. It's a nice location as a base with Lizard town just down the road and Lizard point a 2km walk along the coastal path.

Excellant breakfast and dinner , sea view room was great

This Victorian hotel is located in a “to die for location” and the views are fantastic. The Hotel is need of some serious investment to bring it up to the standard that visitors expect today. The owners appear to be trying but our room 21 had a 1970’s feel about it. Small room with an even smaller bathroom. Some interaction from management and the chef would be nice, girls running the restaurant and bar are lovely. Menu’s appear to be very static and nothing changed while we were there.
