    I was walking the coastal path with friends. Portreath Arms was a wonderful place to stay, the bedroom was beautiful and the bed extremely comfortable and the bathroom high spec. However the my main recommendation is that the staff were so helpful. Ann was kind, flexible , eager to please and meet my needs . My meal is their restaurant was delicious . They provide a basket for items that you might forget, eg phone cahrger/ ear plugs! I didn't need them but it was a thoughtful addition I have not seen before no issues atall

    Really friendly staff, location perfect as close walking distance to beach, harbour and cafes. Food was great, and a lovely outside area to chill out and relax in. Parking outside a bonus, definitely worth visiting again Nothing negative to say about the Portreath Arms

    Lovely pub / hotel close to the beach. Excellent value with everything you need for a pleasant stay in Cornwall. Lots of little extras available like beach towels and fresh milk in the fridge for your morning coffee. Comfortable room and a nice pub for a drink and food. Portreath is a lovely spot.

    Location Unhappy staff

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    Property was in a lovely condition nicely renovated and great location so close to the beach. Sadly the shower let the room down hugely. The family room 1 was so immaculate with nice furnishings and sadly a very poor electric shower that went from boiling to freezing. Sadly the noise from the pub was extremely bad so bad non of us got to bed till 12.30am and with two kids this wasn’t acceptable. I had hoped by 11pm staff would have asked those customers drinking outside shouting and screaming for hours to have quietened down or to go indoors so my kids could sleep. Sadly that didn’t happen, we were left to endure the noise till way past midnight. If you advertise family rooms you need to accommodate families with kids. The breakfasts was amazing great value in the price but very early for holiday makers to eat by 9am another suggestion would be to extend it just to 10am rather. For adults it’s an amazing place to stay but I don’t recommend for families. A fan in the room would be a good idea too with the uk summers being so hot.

    After a long hike, this was a real haven. We had dinner here too - the mussels were the best I've ever eaten. The staff was super helpful. I wandered off the following morning with the room key in my pocket . Instead of having to return (1h walk), they met us down the coast by car to collect.

    Gorgeous room lovely and clean and lots of nice touches free spring and still water and milk. Ate in the dining room food was so delicious as was the breakfast. Staff all very attentive and friendly.

    Honestly, we were really nervous making a booking as booking accommodation above a pub on a Friday night sounds like it would be a nightmare for getting any rest but we were absolutely proven wrong. - Really welcoming hosts, our dogs got loads of goodies as well and were treated like royalty - Some great street food from the pub restaurant being served outside - Breakfast included, which included cold but also cooked to order - The room was way quieter than we expected it would be - Room was clean and a lovely shower Just a minor detail, but the room could have done with its own mini-fridge for us to keep our drinks cold!

    Very warm welcome, good parking, ample breakfast, Nothing

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Wonderful staff - all were friendly and helpful. Modern, clean pub with great facilities. Appreciated the availability of chilled water and beach towels. There were excellent vegetarian and vegan options for dinner and breakfast. The room was quite hot (top floor in a heat wave) but there was a fan. Not much else they could do other than install Aircon.
