Large thatched pub with beautiful gardens set in the heart of picturesque Cockington Village, on the the outskirts of Torquay. Comfortable with plenty of rooms and lots of good food with a takeaway option also available.

Historic Interest

Designed by Sir Edwin Lutyens, the only public house ever designed by the great architect. The bricks are 16th-century style and Sir Edwin specified that they be imported from Belgium. The design of the chimneys pays homage to his Cenotaph in central London. The pub cost £7,000 to build and was opened on 23rd May 1936; today it bears a blue plaque in honour of Lutyens.
