Enjoy the very best of the South Cornish coast at this sublime beachside retreat right on the harbour. The sun terrace is the ideal place to enjoy sumptuous locally-caught seafood and Cornish wines from Trevibban Mill, and ultra-fresh produce in simple, imaginative dishes packed with flavour. Unwind in cool, coastal elegance, with beach-chic interiors that create a stylish, relaxed seaside vibe here at the Idle Rocks.
For a memorable experience, try guided stand-up paddle boarding, or enjoy a boat-charter to the nearby National Trust Trelissick Gardens.
