The host lives on site and was very friendly, helpful and efficient
MarcelGermanySehr günstig gelegen, Nähe Penzance, Mousehole, Minnack Theatre. Freundliche, aufmerksame Gastgeber.
Für die Dauer von 5 Nächten ist es zu beengt. Keine Möglichkeit, sich etwas zuzubereiten.

Great place to stay very good welcome from hosts
Parking is tight but right outside door
MarcoItalyTutto, bellissimo locale, nuovo pulito e ben gestito. Anche l'accoglienza è stata top e il posto auto era davvero attaccato all'ingresso quindi molto comodo
Maria RosariaItalyLa camera era ampia e confortevole e i proprietari gentili e simpatici.
La distanza da Penzance e la difficoltà con i mezzi pubblici. Perfetta sistemazione per chi viaggia in auto.

Does The Old Workshop - Drift have Wi-Fi?
Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.
Does The Old Workshop - Drift have wheelchair accessible rooms?
The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.

Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
