Passing visit

Although the inn was doing a brisk trade we received a warm and friendly welcome. The room was fine for an overnight stay though the bed was a little soft for my liking. I would definitely recommend.

Cornish summer one day stay

I recently had the pleasure of staying at this charming pub, and it was an absolutely delightful experience. The room was cozy and well considered, providing a perfect blend of comfort and rustic charm. The staff were incredibly friendly and went out of their way to make sure I had everything I needed. The food was delicious, with a great selection of hearty pub classics and local specialties. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, making it a perfect spot to relax and unwind. I highly recommend this pub for anyone looking for a memorable and enjoyable stay to cornwall

I was really happy with the staff there. Everyone I dealt with was pleasant and helpful. Lovely breakfast and as clean room, clean sheets, clean bathroom. Nothing fancy but just what I wanted. I`m not a drinker but the pub looked authentic and inviting. I was automatically upgraded when a double room was available for most of my week. They made the holiday very pleasant.
