Staff, bedroom and location spot on. Team were warm and welcoming and room and en-suite clean and spacious, we had a harbour view and was lovely to wake up and see the sea! The bar was great and full of locals and fab to have a live band too! The only negative for us was the dining area needed a refurb

This is the third time we've stayed here and, as always, a truly terrific holiday! Everyone is super-friendly (and super-efficient)! The Ship Inn is cosy and quirky and has almost as many (well-behaved and on leads) dogs as customers in the bar! Beer and cider top-notch and the food is great. Thanks, everyone!! Mousehole is a beautiful place and we never bother to bring the car as there's a bus to Penzance about every 20 mins and from there the world's your oyster! You really should go to The Ship Inn and Mousehole!

Lovely overnight visit
The staff were very friendly and helpful. We were given a beautiful room, overlooking the harbour - it was very clean, comfortable and well-appointed. We had arrived in Mousehole at lunch time, so had what we thought would be a snack lunch at the Ship Inn - the food was delicious and plentiful, to the extent that we couldn't face a full evening meal later on and just had some starters! It needs to be said, however, that several items on the menu were not available and, when we arrived for breakfast the next morning, we were told that the chef hadn't turned up and so we had cereal and toast. This was slightly disappointing but not a major issue for us and the manager did reduce our bill to compensate us, which we were happy with. To put this in perspective, we were visiting at the end of January and were, I believe, the only overnight guests. I realise that it may not be cost-effective to provide a full menu and, from other places we visited, it is apparent that staffing is a general problem - made far worse by the fact that many workers can't afford to live in the places where they work because of inflated prices due to holiday lets and second homes. Anyway, enough politics. The hotel doesn't have a car park but there is public parking nearby, which was £5 for 24 hours. Stepping outside in the morning to a beautiful clear day and watching the sun rise directly in front of us was worth the bill just on its own.

The ONLY place to stay in this part of Cornwall! On the waterfront, literally, sunset and sunrise from your bed - both incredible in mid October. Wonderful, warm, fun and kind staff. Superb pub quiz. Delicious breakfast and supper. Super dog friendly. Heavenly comfy bed.

Fantastic location and great service
Really helpful and friendly staff. The room was good and certainly had excellent harbour views. It was a bit damp around the ceiling - but then you are on the coast. Excellent tea & coffee choice in the room. Only improvement would be being able to lock the window partly open. As it was a sash window on the ground floor, that could be easily opened from outside, it meant that I didn't leave it open at night (which was a bit stuffy - and may explain the damp). That aside, I would definitely recommend it for a short stay. Very good breakfast, too.
