Porth, British, Traditional Restaurant Guide

2023 Review: This “modern spa hotel with views out to sea” from its clifftop vantage point is fully geared-up for the eco tourist, with a solidly rated kitchen serving up sustainable meals from breakfast via lunch and afternoon tea to dinner, when there is a choice of tasting menus including vegetarian and vegan. Non-residents are now welcome to book, but it remains child-free.

“Great food cooked interestingly with great local ingredients” keeps reporters coming back to this “dog-friendly” pub in a stone building dating back to circa 1460 (and whose rangy garden overlooks the local church). Given the “‘back lane’ location” off the usual Cornish tourist trail, it’s a surprisingly “busy place” – its popularity certainly not hurt by the good-value set-lunch deals.
