We stayed at the Cornish Arms in April. The weather was wet and cold, but the atmosphere in the Cornish Arms was warm and friendly. We had a triple room. It was spotless and quiet (despite being next to the main road across to Port Isaac) and the bathroom set-up was excellent. Downstairs, the ancient low-ceilinged pub is full of... More

We stayed opposite the Cornish Arms last week for half term and found a great place to go. We arrived late afternoon after a long drive so decided to pop over and see what was on offer. We were delighted to find they did a takeaway service but I am no expert on Thai food, Felicity the landlady went through... More

Because we couldn't find a B and B in Port Isaac we booked into an inn 2 miles away. The Cornish Arms was just down the street and we were really surprised at the quality of the food. We had Thai platter for the starter and pork belly for the entree. The sauces on the Thai sampler were delicate and... More

The outside of the Cornish Arms was exactly like the pictures online...quaint, old and very pretty. Our room for the night was very old fashioned but clean. Beds comfy and shower adequate. Room freezing cold but Landlord did put heating on when asked...not his fault that on the day of our stay, the weather resembled November rather than May!! Landlord... More

We passed by The Cornish Arms on our way back from a day out and stopped for a drink. What a lovely little location and with friendly staff. Even though we were not eating, a waiter was happy for us to ask questions about the menu. The options were really varied and compared to other places we ate, very reasonably... More

I visit the Cornish Arms every time I go to north Cornwall (up to three times a year) and it's such a great place. It has a nice atmosphere, the locals are very fun and welcoming and the food is good too! The pub menu consists of fresh local produce (which is always nice to see) and there's a good... More

We booked a table and were really looking forward to authentic cornish pub food! I had an overpriced crab salad as a starter, followed by a really dissapointing belly pork! Should have gone Thai!! Waitress was apologetic and knocked a bit of the bill which wasn't necessary. I thought the placed looked a bit shabby, possibly going for an authentic... More

The whole building needs painting and updating.the heating system needs to be repaired.everywhere needs a thorough clean.the food was okay although a lot was not available on the menu .Very expensive and hotel does not deserve the star rating it has. I would not recommend it to anyone.

Can't comment on the accommodation, but both Thai meals we ordered (Thai green curry and pad Thai) were delicious. Very friendly owner made us feel welcome and it was warm and cozy in the main bar. We will definitely be back when we visit Cornwall again. (Did notice it's very dog friendly).
