The Engine Inn

i enjoyed my stay. because it was peaceful. close to the places to visit. the staff were very friendly,the food was excellent.

Big room and in a great location. The pub is really nice and breakfast was lovely. The host was very friendly and helpful.

The Engine Inn was brilliantly located between Penzance and St Ives and had fantastic local views. The room was spacious and had the potential to be amazing. Unfortunately it was not. The bed stunk although the linen was freshly washed. Bathroom was an excellent size, really useful if you require a wet room but covered in mould and people’s hair who had used it before us. No toilet roll and now shower gel etc to use. The room looks beautiful but it’s really let down. Be warned, if you are downstairs the take ear plugs because the noise from upstairs is so loud - not much management can do about that, it’s an old building with old floorboards but just a helpful tip.

I’ll detail my very poor experience on trip advisor

We had such a lovely stay at the Engine Inn! The countryside views from the garden are absolutely stunning, the perfect place to enjoy a cocktail and chat with the locals. Owner Bianca was so friendly, and she offers an amazing full breakfast for a great value. The rooms are very cozy, with the exposed beams and rustic decor reminiscent of a simpler time. We would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a nice country escape!

friendly staff. convenient to entire area. must have car to fully see everything. true local pub experience. very large accommodations. happy to see wash cloths. actual 1700 building. dog allergic should not book as dogs are abundant in pub where breakfast and restaurant is.

Simple comfort, pleasing surroundings. Had to cross the road to the car park to get a phone signal.

The room was far above our expectations. The views were outstanding,although very rural only 5 min drive to St Ives so best of both worlds. The pub itself served good beer and great food and we will return.

The landlady of this quaint little pub was very welcoming. The views are absolutely stunning. The accomodation was spacious but a little basic (converted stone barn with a slightly under power heater). We are looking forward to a return visit in slightly warmer weather.

On arrival was told no food as it was out of season. Nothing on web site stating this. Told no cooked breakfast before 8am but could have breakfast basket. Room freezing and took till the morning to warm up No one available at check out waited nearly ten minutes in the end left key behind bar
