Dining

What the boats brought in

Twenty-four seats, tall windows onto the bay and a short menu that changes every day with what the Porthkellis boats land and what grows in the walled garden.

One kitchen, one cook, the day's catch

Tamsin Rowe cooked in London for twelve years before she came home to the coast. She goes down to the harbour at seven to see what's come in, picks what's ready in the garden, and writes the menu at noon. What you read below is a typical day; the real one is chalked up in the bar from four.

A tiny bar in the evening, a zinc counter and brass rail, glasses and bottles on oak shelves, candles and the last blue light over the sea

The bar at the window

A zinc counter, two stools and a window over the bay. Come in from the beach for a cider, or sit with a gimlet while the light goes. Dogs are welcome in the bar.

A table for dinner

Guests staying with us always get a table; book it when you book your room. Not staying? We keep six seats for neighbours and walkers: call us or ask at the desk.

Questions about dinner

Can we eat if we're not staying?

Yes. Six seats each evening are kept for people not staying with us; call to book.

Do you cook for vegetarians and vegans?

Every evening there's a vegetarian main, and Tamsin cooks a vegan menu if you tell us when you book.

Is there dinner on Monday and Tuesday?

The restaurant rests, but the bar serves oysters, crab on toast and a soup, and the pub in the village is very good.
