Accessibility: Hard to say. We weren’t able to go inside. The step down into the pub is too steep for anyone with mobility issues, so we couldn’t assess the interior or the toilets.
We were able to park just outside the pub though – so not far to walk.
Main text: The Top House Inn sits right in the centre of The Lizard and is clearly a major stopping point for visitors and walkers passing through the village. Although we couldn’t get inside because of the steep step, we did enjoy a sunny drink at the picnic tables out front, with a lovely view across the village. The staff were friendly, and on a good‑weather day it’s a pleasant place to pause and take in the surroundings. From the outside it has the look of a traditional Cornish inn and seems to be a busy spot for people exploring the area.
Overall: A great location and a lovely outdoor stop when the weather’s on your side. But with the steep step at the entrance, it’s not accessible enough for us to visit properly. If we were passing on a fine day, we’d happily sit outside again; otherwise, we’d look for somewhere easier to get into.
