Warm welcomes and waggy tails

The Cornish Arms, Pendoggett is proud to be dog friendly!

Having taken over the business just over two years ago, owners Geoff and Karen Dennison and their team of staff ensure a warm welcome awaits you at The Cornish Arms, Pendoggett, a traditional country pub dating back to the 16th Century. Situated near the north coast, between popular destinations Port Isaac and Tintagel, The Cornish Arms is ideally located to explore this rugged region of Cornwall, and the many attractions it has to offer.

“Our freshly prepared traditional pub food is made wherever possible with locally sourced ingredients and is served every lunchtime and evening.”

The Cornish Arms is just three miles away from the attractive fishing village of Port Isaac, an idyllic filming location thanks to its winding streets and whitewashed cottages and a beautiful place to explore on foot. To the north of the pub is Boscastle, an area of coast that’s acclaimed for its outstanding beauty – a beauty that’s inspired generations of authors such as Thomas Hardy, whose footsteps you can trace along this picturesque part of Cornwall’s coastline.

After a long day exploring the abundant attractions that Cornwall has to offer, what better way to relax than to sit down with a refreshing pint at The Cornish Arms? The beer garden has lush green grass and sturdy wooden benches from which you can admire the quirky form of the pub itself, which looks warped with age and with a host of stories to tell. Head into the pub on an evening, and enjoy the gentle ambiance of exposed beams and dark wood that creates a warm and comforting environment to enjoy your food.

Karen tells us: “Our freshly prepared traditional pub food is made wherever possible with locally sourced ingredients and is served every lunchtime and evening.” For the gin lovers out there, the pub also boasts a wide selection of over 100 gins from Cornwall and beyond as well as its variety of Cornish beers, lagers and ciders. There’s something to suit every taste and you can top it all off with a comfortable night’s sleep in one of the seven en-suite rooms available – which may be necessary after an evening of gin tasting!
