Wow, thank you to Sue and her team, Sally, Sal and Will. What a warm welcome! We had such a lovely time with you all. A well run, friendly and warm spirited pub and B&B. The drinks were cold, and flowed easily and the food second to none. I would not hesitate to recommend a stay. No wonder the local patrons enjoy spending their down time with you!

Great place to stay. Not much in the area itself but good location if visiting other places like Tintagel and Boscastle as only a few minutes down the road. Staff were great and food was awesome
