Location & Views

Port William Inn sits directly on the cliffs of Trebarwith Strand, a popular surfing beach on the Cornwall coast. The hotel is part of the South West Coastal Path, giving guests immediate access to walking routes that connect to Tintagel Castle in 25 minutes along the coast. Trebarwith Beach lies steps from the inn, and Merlin's Cave Beach is within walking distance.

Rooms

Eight boutique bedrooms each have en suite bathrooms and scenic views across the bay or the beach. Rooms are decorated with a nautical theme and include a fridge, tea and coffee making equipment, and Elemis toiletries. The small double rooms are equipped with a Dyson fan for guest comfort, and the coastal king rooms offer extra space.

Dining

The restaurant serves seasonal menus using locally sourced ingredients and freshly caught fish, with a separate wine list. Breakfast includes a self-service continental buffet and a selection of freshly prepared cooked options, served at window tables with wave views. The conservatory restaurant and the bar with an open fire provide indoor and al fresco seating overlooking the mile of golden sand.

Pet-Friendly Accommodations

Dedicated dog-friendly rooms are available throughout the hotel, and each arrives with a welcome pack containing treats, bowls, and a towel. Dogs are allowed in the bar and restaurant areas, with a special dog lager offered at the bar. The hotel provides a designated fire exit for early and late dog walks, and offers easy beach access for pets.

Live music events are held at the inn, and a pub quiz runs every Thursday evening.
