Trebarwith Strand beach is dotted with curious rock pools and glistening sand at low tide. It’s also home to a surfing school, giving beginners the chance to carve their first waves safely. Tintagel, steeped in Arthurian legend, is a short drive or walk away, and promises a magical day out at its mythical clifftop castle. Popular north coast destinations such as Padstow, Port Isaac, Boscastle and Bude are also close by.

The pub offers front row, sea-facing seats for truly scenic al fresco dining. Inside, the contemporary decor charms with the crackle of a cosy wood burner during the colder months. Serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner, the menus combine favourite pub classics with changing daily specials. Each dish goes down best with one of St Austell Brewery’s award-winning beers. There’s a tasty selection for children too, making it a go-to base for family adventures.
