The Old Inn

The Old Inn was used as an alehouse for the visiting sailors to buy their beer brewed on the premises and some say there was a clandestine ‘still’ to make gin out the back, under the cliff! It is now a modern cottage, with 3 bedrooms, large living room, kitchen, bathroom and cloakroom.

The roof was raised in the 1960s, and there have been modernisations ever since. With 3 star Visit England status, Families Welcome and a Gold Award, this cottage provides everything you should need for a comfortable holiday, including wifi connection to the internet.

Nestled in a peaceful valley on a quiet, no-through road, our terraced stone cottage is just 200 meters from the village square, with the quay and beach beyond. Pentewan Beach, a wide sandy stretch with hidden coves, remains largely unspoiled and offers family-friendly facilities and water sports in summer.

The village pub serves meals and features a lovely outdoor seating area overlooking the quay. Nearby, discover other picturesque bays, beaches, and harbors, some home to majestic tall ships. Pentewan also has cosy cafés and a small shop for your convenience.

During your stay, immerse yourself in the beauty and attractions of Cornwall. Stroll along the South West Coast Path toward Mevagissey to the west or Fowey to the east, soaking in breathtaking views.

Explore the world-famous Eden Project, just 8 miles away, or spend a relaxing afternoon at the enchanting Lost Gardens of Heligan. Visit the beautiful Roseland Peninsula, the quaint harbour village of Mevagissey (just 2.5 miles away), or the iconic port of Charlestown, home to magnificent tall ships.
