Portreath Arms

Portreath Arms is a village pub dating from the 1850s, set on The Square in Portreath - a beach village on Cornwall’s north coast, 4 miles from Redruth. The pub has a bar, a restaurant serving home-cooked food, a garden, free parking, and free Wi-Fi. Dogs are welcome, and accessible facilities are available.

Each guest room has a flat-screen TV, hairdryer, and tea and coffee facilities. En-suite or shared bathrooms include a shower with towels and complimentary toiletries. The property is small and straightforward - a pub with rooms rather than a hotel - which keeps things relaxed.

Portreath beach is within walking distance, with firm sand at low tide and reliable Atlantic surf. The village sits at one end of the Coast to Coast mineral tramway cycle route to Devoran on the Fal estuary, following the old copper-mining tramway south across Cornwall. The coast path heading west towards Porthtowan passes dramatic cliff scenery and the remains of clifftop mine workings. Gwithian and Godrevy beaches are a short drive along the coast.

The Portreath Arms scores 9.2 on Booking.com from over 630 reviews. Its central village position and pub-restaurant combination make it a solid base for the mining coast between Camborne and St Agnes.
