The Old School Hotel - A 3-star coastal hotel with en-suite rooms, cliffside views, and a seafood restaurant
Set in the picturesque village of Port Isaac, The Old School Hotel features 12 individually styled rooms, including kingsize, small double, and single accommodations, all en-suite with tea and coffee facilities. Some rooms offer views of the cliffs, harbour, or Atlantic Ocean, such as the 'Latin' kingsize room, which provides one of the best harbour vistas in Port Isaac. The hotel includes an on-site seafood restaurant serving locally sourced Cornish produce, with seasonal menus and an outdoor decked dining area. Guests can explore nearby attractions like Port Gaverne's beaches or walk the coastal path with views of the Atlantic. Parking is available in the public car park on New Road, a short walk from the hotel.
Pros
The 'Latin' kingsize room offers panoramic harbour views, rated among the best in Port Isaac.
The on-site restaurant serves fresh, locally sourced seafood with seasonal menu changes.
Rooms feature en-suite bathrooms, tea and coffee facilities, and some include refrigerators.
The hotel is licensed for civil wedding ceremonies, ideal for intimate gatherings.
Proximity to coastal walks and beaches like Port Gaverne, known for clear waters.
Cons
Parking requires use of the public car park on New Road, a short walk from the hotel.
The nearest town, Wadebridge, is 16.1 km away, limiting immediate access to urban amenities.
“What strikes me is the ease of finding it, coupled with on-site parking, a real plus in this area. The views over the town and ocean are a definite highlight, as is the possibility of falling asleep to the sound of the sea. I see it as a solid choice for those seeking both comfort and convenience.”
