This ancient building, once a chapel, dates in parts back to 950AD. Unassuming from the outside, it is a gem internally and is simply furnished, with slate floors, granite walls and exposed beams in the two separate bar rooms, one of which is subdivided into separate drinking areas. Conversation is the main entertainment here. There is a protected smokers' area in the ancient courtyard at the front of the pub, and a large garden (with children's play area) at the back offering outstanding views over the Tidna Valley and out to sea. A new restaurant has been incorporated, and food is available most of the day from 1200 to 2130. Two ensuite rooms and a 6-berth holiday cottage (the 'Martyn Room') are available. Expect always to find the HSD here, although the other beers may be varied from time to time - or may not be present at all!  Disabled access, although the car park is cobbled and the pub  floor is somewhat uneven, but worth the effort.
