Why stay in a Sawday’s pubs with rooms?
✓ Bedrooms with character. We choose pubs where the rooms deserve just as much attention as the bar and kitchen downstairs, whether that means crisp linen after a day on the coast, original beams in an old inn or a sea view worth waking up early for.
✓ Food shaped by Cornwall. From line-caught fish and shellfish to local meat, seasonal vegetables and Cornish ales, the best pub kitchens make the most of what’s around them. Menus change with the seasons and the catch, so dinner feels connected to the landscape outside.
✓ The best of Cornwall starts at the bar. The people behind the bar often know the best beach for a morning swim, the quietest stretch of coast path or where to find the freshest pasty. Stay somewhere with local knowledge built into the welcome and Cornwall opens up rather quickly.

A pub for everyone
Meet David Hancock, our chief pubs inspector
David has spent 30 years doing exactly what most people dream of: travelling the UK in search for the best British pubs. He’s edited every Sawday’s Pubs & Inns guide, written for The Sunday Times and Country Life Magazine, and has judged the country’s top pub awards.
But what makes him truly invaluable is the way he notices the quiet markers of a great pub, like the barman who can proudly trace each pint back to the local brewer, bedrooms that still carry the character of the old coaching inn or village alehouse beneath, and the unmistakable atmosphere of a pub where people feel at home. That instinct is what shapes our pubs with rooms collection today.

FAQ’s for pubs with rooms in Cornwall
Where are the best pubs to stay in Cornwall?
That depends on the kind of Cornish escape you’re after. The north coast is brilliant for surfing, dramatic cliffs and long stretches of the South West Coast Path, while West Cornwall brings fishing villages, wild landscapes and beautiful beaches. The south coast is gentler, with sheltered coves, sailing harbours and quieter seaside towns. Wherever you choose, staying in a pub gives you somewhere characterful to eat, drink and sleep at the end of the day.
What food can I expect at Cornwall pubs with rooms?
Cornwall’s food is naturally shaped by its position between land and sea. Depending on the pub, you might find line-caught fish, local crab and lobster, shellfish, Cornish beef, seasonal vegetables and plenty of good local beer and cider. Many pubs work closely with nearby fishermen, farms and producers, so menus change with the seasons and what’s available locally.
Are pubs with rooms in Cornwall good for walking holidays?
Yes, Cornwall has hundreds of miles of spectacular coastline to explore, with the South West Coast Path passing through some of its most beautiful landscapes.

Very much so. Several of our pubs sit close to beaches, harbour walls and sheltered coves, making them ideal for a traditional seaside escape with a little more character.
