Superb selection of traditional and New World wines available by the glass, bottle, or case, which should suit every occasion! Like the beach at Portmellon, we are dog-friendly so dogs on a leash are welcome in the bar area (fresh drinking water is available at the front door).
Please note that although we welcome accompanied children of all ages during the day, we insist that only children of 13 years and over enter the inn after 1800 hours and then only to eat dinner in either the snug area, or in the restaurant. There are numerous nearby establishments that will cater for families with younger children and most serve evening meals earlier than our restaurant, which opens from 1830 to 2130 hours daily. The inn has friendly and well-trained staff that will ensure that your visit is a memorable one and hopefully persuade you to follow many others, by returning to see us again, when you visit Cornwall.
All this is mixed
with a convivial sociable atmosphere to provide a quality and good
value place to rest, recuperate and enjoy.
