1 / 8Port Gaverne Hotel
Port Isaac, Cornwall
Yes. Dogs can stay in selected rooms.
A Cornish pub with fifteen historic rooms by the sheltered cove at Port Gaverne, where dogs get a tennis ball, Forthglade treats and a welcome in the bar.
Port Gaverne is a peaceful cove surrounded by cliffs, rock pools and winding clifftop paths on the North Cornwall coast, in its own hamlet just steps from Port Isaac. It blends the rustic charm of a traditional pub with fifteen historic rooms, and this dog friendly hotel hands you the coast to explore with your dog from the moment you arrive.
Dogs stay in a select number of the rooms, so make sure a Dog-Friendly Room is booked before you travel. Each dog's stay comes with pup presents: biodegradable poo bags, a tennis ball and Forthglade treats, plus a beer for you to take away. Keep dogs on leads in the public areas, and don't leave them on their own in the room. Whether more than one dog can share your room, the hotel's pages don't say, so check when booking.
The bar welcomes well behaved dogs, the natural place to settle with a Cornish ale after the cliffs. Your dog may join you anywhere but the main restaurant, and the hotel doesn't say which tables work at mealtimes, so check with the team. The menu is rooted in locally sourced ingredients, from fresh seafood to comforting pub favourites, and Sunday brings a roast.
The sheltered cove is on your doorstep, and from it the South West Coast Path leads towards Port Isaac or out to Port Quin for dramatic sea views, a walk your dog can start straight from the door. Wildpack's Polzeath to Port Isaac Coastal Walk is 4.3 miles away, and Trebarwith Strand, the closest beach our map rates for dogs, lies 4.6 miles off.
