This friendly local was originally part of a farm dating from 1700s and became a coaching inn during the 19th-century. The horseshoe shaped bar, with inglenook fire place, leads through to an adjoining restaurant where locally sourced food is served. A good range of beers from St Austell is always available, together with a local cider in summer. Popular with both cyclists and walkers, the pub lies just one mile from the Tarka Trail. Opening hours will change between Summer and Winter. Opens on a Monday for Bank Holidays
