The Mill House in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly

Hubby and I visited mid feb, what a lovely place Mill House is. Very oldy worldly no marble or concrete here, we had the valentines meal on the Friday and what an amazing meal we had all 3 courses, there was a singer in the bar so we had a lovely evening. Our room was clean, comfortable and warm, bathroom had all the soaps / shampoo etc that were needed, all the staff were friendly and helpful, the owners Jo and Stu were lovely and explained that the hotel was a fairly new venture and was a work in progress as a few of the public areas need a bit of TLC, we loved it and yes we will go back 😊

Spent two nights down at this beautiful old and quirky Millhouse and we had a fabulous time, from the time we walked in to have a few ciders in the bar before booking in, to the morning we left, very old worldly, if you want straight walls level floors, even ceilings, it’s not the place for you, we had the Valentine’s meal on the first night, which was absolutely beautiful, the trio of lamb was excellent, breakfast on the two mornings were excellent. first morning I had a full Cornish, second morning I had salmon and scrambled egg and when I say smoked salmon and eggs I think it was half a salmon and a dozen scrambled eggs, Room was brilliant, comfortable and warm bed, immaculately clean, modern bathroom with everything you need, shower was great, the owners were excellent as were the staff, friendly, helpful and chatty, would we return, absolutely?

Stayed for two nights. Lovely staff. Food was excellent - lovely cooked breakfasts and evening meal. We will happily return.

Looking at reviews on booking com, 3* is about right. First, you need independent travel arrangements as busses and trains won't serve this place or area. What they got right was a clean, comfortable warm (as we went in January) and spacious room. The building looks ancient, old worldy fitting in with what ever it means to be Cornwall in age - loved it. We had bath as opposed to shower, bathroom was massive offering plenty of space and light. Complimentary tea coffee and bottled water replenished ever day. The location is somewhat isolated, plenty of parking set amongst beautiful natural surroundings including a brook. Food gorgeous and delicious what was served to us. Breakfast and evening meals, especially Thursday steak night. Nice to see locals using the establishment. What we think they could improve was WiFi dropping out regularly or just not working in room 1. All times of the day. When we approached staff, there appeared to be little empathy or anything they could do as they talked about how WiFi works on their device. We were left exposed. But no biggy as WiFi isn't essential to us, but it left some communication difficulties unless you were in communal areas. Also, we were one of the last guests to use the rooms (we were reminded of this more than three times!) some of the menu was restricted. We are 2 out of 3 nights (to lend support to local businesses) so for instance: the dessert choices on our last night was ice cream or cheese! On breakfast we were offered anything cold, but the day before it had all been placed out to help yourself. No yoghurt because there hadn't been a delivery, no real empathy given just that's the way it is. I think we were victims of the winding down season, but if we had been informed beforehand, we would have made different plans. We did on our last day by withholding breakfast, it was convenient as we had lunch appointment at home... So we can't really give it much more than a 3* rating even though staff were friendly, polite and helpful. Not a place to stay for disabled or hard of walking, too many stairs to navigate....but if just for drinks/meals, then I thoroughly recommend...

Second year visiting this lovely place and again fell in love with it, scenic, blissfully quiet ( stream at side will put anybody to sleep), 5 minutes walk to strand. Also special thank you to paige and Julia who never stopped whilst we we there not only accomadating out needs but seeing to everybody else (true credits to the business) Nice and welcoming atmosphere and relaxing bar area

Non fa per me, scale ripide lontano dal paese esperienza negativa ma la colpa è della ns agenzia di viaggi che ha prenotato - chissà per quale motivo - una notte in questo posto. Cena da dimenticare in pratica pagato per non mangiare niente. Colazione saltata. Non adatto ad una coppia non più giovane. Ma ripeto la colpa è solo della signora dell agenzia di viaggi che ci ha prenotato una stanza. Forse x una coppia giovane senza alcuna pretesa

Brilliant food and great service, one vegetarian and one meat eater. At last a vegetarian roast that doesn't disappoint, it was all really well cooked, each item cooked spot on, loved the mustard and seeds in the the cauliflower cheese. Generous portions, Monday lunch at work sorted. This is now "our" place to go on a Sunday. We have tried 6 others locally nothing comes near. Carefully cooked food with excellent service.

We visited The Mill House for a special dinner and we were very disappointed. The service was totally shocking, staff got the order wrong with little concern for their error, the wait time was terrible and all the residents who came in after us were all served in front. The final straw was when we’d waited at least 20 minutes after finishing our main course. The staff (3 of them) were neither attentive or cared and carried on talking to residents and clearing other tables. My husband’s burger was burned and no one asked us if our meal was ok. In the end we left the food. After 2 courses we got up and went to ask if we could pay the bill. At that point I told them I was disappointed and the waitress said “I didn’t notice them”. This is a small restaurant and therefore I think that this business is complacent, not caring, very poor customer service and I would definitely not recommend it ever. Still raging about it hence this review!

What a lovely welcome and superb food. My husband and I really enjoyed our meals. Thoroughly recommend a visit.

Great place for a wedding. Just spent 2 days here with family for a wedding. Enjoyed the whole thing immensely fantastic setting great food friendly staff. The owner worked hard to make sure the whole thing was a success. Inly one small criticism for the benifit of the owner rooms could do with a refit but they do have character. I would highly recommend for a planned event or wedding or for just a trip out for an evening meal you would be hard pressed to find better in the area. Thank you to all involved Russ.

Beautiful presented meal , delicious , super friendly staff , very quaintly presented restaurant , we will be back

Live local, on a very wet day, plans changed, went for lunch, winter season, limited menu. What arrived was to dream for, melt in the mouth haddock, not like local chippy chewy, chips fantastic. Will make it a monthly trip if this is the quality!🥳

Very sad to write this review. We should have been prepared when we found bar and restaurant empty on arrival, but we were hungry and reviews looked very promising. Tables were already laid up but as we sat down the waitress went and we realised the table hadn't been cleaned. Waitress returned and cleaned it for us and left, By now we realised that it was really filthy deep down. I actually run my nail across and could see how ingrained the dirt was. Day boat fish was plaice but only one left, OH asked for it. 15 minutes later waitress approached and said chef had cooked it but the realised it hadn't been gutted before cooking, would he have the cod instead. Agreed, but by now we were really concerned about the state of the tables and a chef who didn't have the experience of knowing how to prepare and cook a plaice. We tried to find a member of staff and by now others were waiting to be served at the bar too. We were really concerned that we would be wasting money so we decided to pay for the one beer and leave. We managed to find a staff member and did so. We felt bad for the staff trying to do their job , however someone isn't looking at standards, lack of basic hygiene and training. I have absolutely no idea how the Mill house has so many 4+ reviews. If you read my other reviews at other venues you will see that this type of review is very rare from me.

Our first visit here. We enjoyed a superb Sunday roast [one pork, one beef] . Very quick service. lots of meat and vegetables served by friendly staff. Lovely ginger puddings, a good bottle of wine and what more could one want? Rufus, our King Charles cavalier, sat under the table!

Our visit left a bad taste in my mouth, and not just literally. It was supposed to be a special evening out to celebrate my husbands birthday. He treated himself to the Surf and Turf, and at £32, we were thinking it would be a thing of beauty. The steak was ok, cooked as requested, but he only got 2 prawns and 1 scallop cut in half!! The menu clearly states scallops, suggesting more than one… I got the chargrilled aubergine bake. It was horrible mess, slices of aubergine covered in a sickly sauce, soggy and definitely not chargrilled. It wasn’t a bake and the crumb was non existent. I couldn’t eat it. In fairness, they removed it from our bill, but I was left with no food. There was no vegetarian option on the children’s menu, I asked if there was anything for my son and was told if it’s not in the menu, then no. Eventually the waitress asked the chef and they agreed he could have a vege burger. It was pub food charged at restaurant prices. Also, the place felt grubby, my chair cushion was filthy and we could hardly get our legs under the table. We left feeling really disappointed and a lot poorer!

We called in for a drink after a day on the beach at Trebarwith Strand and as it seemed a nice place we booked our final evening there for the steak night (£15 with all the trimmings) this seemed reasonable compared to the outrageous prices we had experienced everywhere else. We were greeted by a lovely girl who showed us to our table, we had our dog with us as well, a plus point on holiday. Our meals were served in reasonable time and they were excellent, another girl helped with the service and they were both really attentive and helpful especially as they had a huge party to deal with as well. We all said at the end we had really enjoyed it and that to me is very important at todays prices, well done, we would thoroughly recommend

Visited here for my wife’s birthday with the rest of our immediate family. Whilst the building was a little tired internally and externally the food was an absolute triumph. Scallops, scotch egg, curry, hake, chicken wings, cheesy mac were all wonderfully presented and very tasty. We tried the fried cream tea (fried scone, cream and jam) with trepidation but OMG what a taste sensation. The owner, who served us, was a wonderful host !

This is our favourite place especially for their superb Sunday roasts. The staff are fantastic with wonderful service and ready to go the extra mile. Highly recommended.

Always love this wonderful pub and restaurant but their 5 course vegan menu was truly excellent. The food was so creative - every course a suprise. Just a few examples; Leek & potato veloute, garlic & mushroom arancini, butternut squash Kiev and hazelnut crusted celeriac. The service was excellent as always. The wine was delicious - a wonderful evening.

I would not recommend this place to stay. We had room 1 and it was very poor. The bedside light was broken and the lampshade was torn a simple replacement would have been an easy fix. It was very dirty behind the bed side tables....

We visited for my 60th birthday. Nice drink in the bar first, all dog friendly. We had been here a couple of years ago, but this time round the food actually seemed better. Menu was a little restricted, I normally choose fish but didn’t fancy...

Nice embiance, good small menu, fantastic food, top quality nothing negative to say. We went for our wedding anniversary meal and were not disappointed with service or food/drink. Can’t wait to return. (You get what you pay for)

8 of us stayed locally in a cottage and this was local. Lovely setting. Gorgeous food and good service. Nothing negative.

Fantastic by any means , go for it , you wont regret it , good menus , great food , nicely situated towards the beach at Trebarwith Strand .

We were prepared for understaffing etc and prepared to be sympathetic to this, but this restaurant was not apparently understaffed. We waited about ten minutes before we even got a menu. The food was good, but a bit pricey. We waited again for a long...

A classic old fashioned Inn with all the modern touches you’ll ever need in this rural paradise. Rooms are very clean, spacious and had plenty of storage for our clothes and luggage. Bathrooms were spotless and the showers had excellent water pressure - perfect for...

Wonderful setting, wonderful grounds, beautiful old building...and the main restaurant area has the appearance and furnishing of a second-rate community centre including screens to separate it into separate areas. Food was OK if over-priced. The main reason I regretted the visit was the drop from...

We stayed in tintagel for 4 nights. We liked the food here and the service was good. Only downside is the price.. which I feel is a tad high compared to the main town where especially in one pub the food was better and cheaper....

Visited The Mill after discovering the nearby pub doesn’t serve lunch on Tuesdays. I am SO glad we came here, the food was phenomenal and staff were warm and friendly. Highly recommend the messy fries! Can’t wait to come back again.

Just had an exceptional Sunday lunch here, the food was amazing, first class service too. Booked again for in the week, everything was perfect. Well done to all the staff.

10 minutes walk up the busy road from the strand we were expecting a first rate experience . The dish of the day had run out ( by 7.30 ) . Food when it came was well presented and good quality albeit expensive . The...

The Mill House was excellent and very Covid secure. Great food, drink and customer service (unlike the Port William)

We ate whilst staying at the hotel, the food and service were excellent - only comment portion sizes were oin small side - the ice cream portion was one large spoon full and this was not reflected in pricing ! We also tried the local...

Mill House is a great pub/hotel and very dog-friendly (look for a giant husky called Strider in the bar). the rooms are clean and comfortable and breakfast is terrific.

Went here with our dog after a long day exploring. I won’t lie when we first walked in to the restaurant I felt like it was a little clinical, but I soon realised this was just due to covid and precautions, and the food was one of the best meals we had on our holiday. The presentation and taste was superb, my husband had a T bone steak special and I had the Hake. The service was also fantastic. I would highly recommend to anyone in the area.

We ate here in December we went on steak special night when rump with all the trimmings was £12 it was presented beautifully and was very tasty the chef done a very good job we will return when back in cornwall

Following our lunch and review of the 30 September we are back again and staying in The Cottage. Booked in for dinner for both of our evenings whilst staying here. Why go further? See separate review for accommodation. Very good to excellent food. A surprisingly extensive and quality wine list for a pub but it transpires the owner Mark also has a wine supply business. Three local real ales on pump. Usual kegs. Very good traditional breakfasts including kippers which you don't often see. Alastair Sawday and Good Pub Guide entries. Most pleasant and engaging team. Two dining rooms but we found the one adjoining the bar far more atmospheric and with a great ambience. Doggy friendly throughout. Not that we have a dog but great to see and all part of the British pub scene. Beautiful area.

I do like an water old mill. Water mills are one of those brilliant pre-industrial buildings where the building design itself is an integral part of the process of manufacturing whatever it is that’s being manufactured. Treknow Mill dates from the 1760s and spent the best part of 160 years doing milling stuff before becoming a private home for a few years. In 1945 it morphed into a guest house and, by the 1960s, it had done the full butterfly and become a hotel/pub. It’s been doing it’s hospitality thing in this beautiful wooded valley with the stream hurtling down towards Trebarwith Strand ever since. It’s fair to say that the imaginatively named Mill House doesn’t look a while bunch like an old water mill these days. There are numerous additions that have cropped up over the last 250-odd years, but it’s still an attractive venue. We came here for dinner on the last night of a recent holiday. Despite all the covid-related zombie apocalypse precautions the staff were great; friendly, welcoming and efficient. The dining room spacious but not free from atmosphere. We’d been told to expect fine dining rather than pub grub and I was a little wary of this. Many pub restaurants sacrifice the quality of cooking and flavour in favour of fussing artistically with plating food on enormous, oddly shaped, plates and smearing some kind of “jus” or (God forbid) “foam” about the place. Thankfully, the Mill House don’t do this. The food is nicely presented, but more importantly, it tastes great. At £128 for 2 courses and 2 rounds of drinks for 4 people it’s not cheap but it’s certainly not over priced. We had a completely enjoyable evening and that, after all, is the point.We came to Trebarwith Strand once before many years ago and we didn’t eat here. I wish we had. Enough said.

Featured in the Alastair Sawday Pub Guide and the Good Pub Guide. Enough said. We called in for a light lunch. Superb ingredients. The bar area is rustic and cosy with log fire and sofas. A couple of restaurant areas. We always prefer the bar for an authentic pub ambience, sadly dented by the current covid19 nonsense. Friendly team and we had already pre booked a two night stay for December. Looking forward to it.

Lovely spacious dining area in this old cornish mill house. A little pricey, but hotel prices! Worth a look!

Came for lunch after running away from Port William Inn. Seated in garden as no space indoors (to be fair we had just shown up out of the blue for a late lunch, and they were busy so it was good of them to seat us at all). Garden is a bit ropey but indoors looked nice.Very friendly greeting and service, if slightly haphazard!Food - portions are generous. Lunch menu was a mix of pub standard dishes and slightly more unusual options. Food was tasty, well cooked and piping hot. Not outstanding but perfectly good meal.

Filthy . Such a shame as the chef is clearly talented but let down by staff. We got someone else’s order and then in a none Covid safe way it was taken back from us after a few minutes and given to an elderly vulnerable couple who looked terrified . And not dog friendly at all unless your dog can climb near vertical stairs . Just avoid

We had a fabulous meal here. We couldn’t fault anything about the food or the service. The restaurant is also dog friendly. We had mackerel and cured monkfish as starters, wife had cod and I had probably the best fish and chips I’ve ever eaten. Everything was cooked brilliantly and presented really well. Not the cheapest, but the quality of the food makes it very good value for money. Well recommended!

Having been herded around like animals at the nearby Port William Inn, we came to the Mill House and found a warm welcome and superb selection of real ales. Will definitely be back.

The room. it was a family room, room number 9. It looks like a deposit for old rubbish (dirty mattresses, one in a wardrobe, another under the double bed, a black sack in another wardrobe). There are too many stuff in one of the room: you can't open the drawers of the chests of drawers because they are blocked with an old armchair and you can't move the armchair because there is no room. So I had to keep all of my stuff in the suitcases because there was no appropriate, clean storage space.The window in the bathroom is broken and you can't open it. One bathroom, four people and you can't open the window....And the flush of the toilet is powerless. The bathroom is truly dated with a ridiculous small sink and mirror. Walls are dirty, full of marks and prints of any sort. I don't know the other rooms so I am only speaking for room number 9, the family room. Bar, restaurant and staff are lovely tought, so no complain at all. I appreciate they didn't charge my 2 years old girl, but still I think you must update the accommodation to a decent standard.

Dined here for our weekend away, lovely choice of breakfasts every morning and menu to choose from in the evenings. Ordered off the children's menu one night. Nothing was too much. Staff are attentive and welcoming. Restaurant clean with a small running river that you can listen too whilst eating. Lovely atmosphere.

Feta taurine was the best thing I have eaten this year. Amazing staff, great chef. Wine was pretty darn good too

Popped in here a couple of evenings when we were staying down the road during February 2020. Traditional lovely, old pub, friendly staff and a pool table to keep children and adults entertained. We went in for the steak night which was excellent value and the steak was pretty good. We will go back when we inevitably return to the area.

Gorgeous food really enjoyed it. Slightly tucked away so you may not notice it!! Don’t allow this to be kissed it’s a gem. Food is lovely and well priced and service is outstanding xx

My husband and I received a Gastro Pub Voucher from my in laws, for our anniversary. The Mill House came up as a place to use it. They were very friendly on the phone and I booked a table.Service on the evening was friendly and welcoming. The atmosphere was really relaxing and pretty - love the fairy lights and candles!The food was beautiful, they can certainly cook fish very well. Also there was a good selection of local ales and some very cute local paws in the bar! We would recommend this, if you are looking for great food, good drink and some local Cornish cheer (along with their furry friends!).

We also went here for a Group-on lunch. We weren't expecting much, but the service was good, food service was fast, and the food delicious and well-presented. We'd come here more often if we lived nearer. It's probably crowded in the summer, but in March it's a great place for lunch.

Friends bought us a Groupon voucher for a lunch at The Mill House Inn and we were grateful and still are.....but (you knew there was a but coming didn't you?) the food was underwhelming and over priced for what it was.I know it was winter and the weather has been particularly poor but the place just looked a bit tired.

Loved it, good food, good company, great breakfast especially. Weather was a little unkind, but warmth from staff and locals made up for it. It's an old building and a little tired in places but that only adds to the character. Give it a try and make up your own mind, very dog friendly, we don't have one but just adds to the experience.

We highly recommend staying at The Mill House, Trebarwith. The locals, management and staff made our family of 5 feel a part of their family and close knit community. The customer service was outstanding and they went above and beyond to ensure our stay at The Mill House was an enjoyable and memorable experience for us and our kids. We give this gorgeous English Inn our highest recommendation!

This picturesque hotel makes for a lovely stay. It's friendly, peaceful and comfortable. The staff are lovely and the food was excellent. Best veggie breakfast!

So fortunate to have stumbled upon this wonderful gem. Absolutely lovely breakfast and dinner (&beer) with such welcoming staff. Beautiful surroundings and a great base from which to explore North Cornwall. Will definitely return 🍺

Great value steak night in lovely warm pub - up the road from Port William pub. Authentic pub. Good beer and atmosphere

My wife and I stayed here for 3 nights in a Groupon deal. It was for my 60th birthday and we had a fantastic time. We where thrilled with our beautiful and spacious room. The breakfast was the best we have ever tasted. The staff made us feel so welcome and even brought my breakfast with a candle in it for my birthday. We spent 3 nights and we could have stayed much longer as we loved this wonderful place.

My other half booked for my birthday via groupon.....

Came for a w night stay. The steak night was excellent. I will be returning again next year. The bay down the road has stunning views.

We have regularly visited for a pint, but not eat here.

We had a delicious Sunday lunch at the Mill House. Served steaming hot and plenty of meat and vegetables. Would highly recommend.

Visited on a quiet saturday lunchtime, steady stream of customers but not busy. Food godo quality with quick service and prices not bad either. Nice to visit, though access roads can be a bit grid locked!

A popular venue, we hadn't booked but they fitted us in for Sunday roast. Very generous portions and well cooked. We returned later in the week for evening meal and again had friendly service and good food.

Arrived early Sunday after the Mill had hosted a wedding the night before. Had not booked, had the dog but were so looking forward to a proper Sunday Lunch. Not thing too much trouble. We sat outside, I had Roast Brisket Hubby had lamb. Homemade Yorkshire, and some of the best veggies, plenty of homemade proper gravy. Superb, superb, superb. Thank you for making the first day of a long awaited holiday very special. We will be back very soon.

Booked table for 4 plus 1child 18.9.19 did not realise fish and chip night only fish on menu or veg burger as alternative not the most exciting meal for anniversary celebration was not overly impressed chips dry felt like reheated 3 ordered sticky toffee pudding with toffee sauce and ice cream there was no sauce unless it was the squiggle on plate but that was not toffee pudding was dry. If the have themed nights they should warn people before hand that that is all that will be served it was too l ate to go anywhere else. Expectations were high disappointed cannot comment on Inn itself as did not stay there

Slightly disappointing visit. The staff were helpful but the food was average and the beer poor. Maybe we had been spoilt by other establishments in the area but this was poor by comparison.

This is the second time that my Wife and I have stayed at The Mill House and I must say that we were not disappointed. The staff were as friendly as ever with a warm welcome. The bedroom was very comfortable, if a little on the warm side. The food was excellent and the wine list more than respectable. We would certainly be very happy to stay there again. Many thanks, Max and Shirley.

I stayed for one night with my husband and dog Percy, we treated ourselves after walking from Minehead along the Coastal

Read some good reviews so was a little disappointed when we ate here.

Allora, se cercate un hotel "classico" non é la struttura giusta. Si tratta di un mulino restrutturato, ma comunque é molto rustico. Qualche ragnetto si può trovare. Peró la stanza era pulita e confortevole. Colazione ottima. Tutto molto caratteristico. Non prende il pieno dei voti perché il bagno aveva un lavandino microscopico.

Located off the beaten track with a cheekily tight right turn the Millhouse Inn is a really fine looking building.

We booked a night away before going onto visit our daughter in Truro, and decided to treat ourselves so 4 star queen room with views sounded ideal. However, when we arrived we were shown to the Mill Cottage which at first seemed great until we realised there were some serious issues. The upstairs of the cottage is fine, although a microwave and then no cutlery or crockery makes no sense, but the down stairs bedroom is shocking. When we went downstairs it felt icy cold and damp and the decoration is appalling-far from 4 star. There were signs of mould around all the windows and in the bathroom, and the bathroom floor and skirting boards were dirty. There was no loo roll. When we got into the bed it was cold and damp.

Good menu and fabulously presented and tasty. Cheerful welcoming staff, recommended. Has accommodations as well

Excellent food, upmarket traditional with some delicious and creative vegetable dishes. Friendly staff and great ambience in bar area.

Good dinner in the garden, good service, welcoming staff. Inside lots of old world charm and ambience, super local beers.

Caught them near the end of food service but they were happy to serve us. Had a lovely ploughman’s. Plenty of cheese. My husband had a mix of cheddar cheese and ham and again there was plenty. One of the best ploughman’s I’ve had for ages.

Stopped for a drink here last week . Beautiful position set in amongst the woodland . However walking through the weedy garden, tables were left with dirty plates and glasses even though folk had left.

This is quite an expensive pub but all the food was good. The ploughman’s were enormous! Out of the way location so a good bet if you find Tintagel too crowded for comfort.

On saturday the 22nd of June we got married here at The Mill House Mark couldnt do more to help and his staff was very freindly. All of our guest commented how amazing the food was and how beautiful The Mill & grounds was. We stayed 2 nights in the cottage which was clean and full of character and the breakfast was full of choice. I cant thank Mark and his team enough. We have been back for food and we highly reccomend it what ever the visit. Food, Drink or Stay! See you soon!

My wife and I called in for lunch at The Mill House. The pub/hotel is tucked away in an idyllic spot. Although the building is obviously old, it is as clean and fresh as you could expect from such an old building. Bar staff (owner?) was very friendly and helpful. We both elected to have their beef burger, chips and salad. Neither of us have ever experienced a beefburger so tasty and fresh. The owner said they are home made using local Cornish beef. I would have loved to have their recipe!

We discovered this pub entirely by accident whilst driving down some very narrow and pretty country lanes Very welcoming pub with a good selection of local beers and a nice menu, a little on the pricey side but worth it

We've expected better, much better. Short staffed and more shabby than chic. So different from The Maltsters at Chapel Amble where we'd been the previous evening.

Cottage in lovely setting, but, the kitchen that had a microwave , sink and fridge had no crockery and no knives. Explanation, " we don't rent it as self catering " ??? Bedroom stairs filthy at edges and riser, bedroom smelt damp, chest of drawers marked and stained drawers smelt, wardrobe door broken, fire door locked from outside, considering bedroom in basement very worrying if fir broke out upstairs in kitchen living room area. Owner did not believe us so showed reception person who said she didn't smell anything as she was used to old buildings ? ........ We left and would rather have slept in the car.......

The food at the Mill House is great. 8 of us ate there on a work trip to Tintagel. Lots of clean plates. (Breakfast good too). Highly recommended.

Lovely little secret in a valley, full of Cornish charm within walking distance of a beautiful beach, food fantastic, hosts very welcoming

Myself and my girlfriend came here with another couple friend of ours after booking a local AirBnb. Having no idea of the area we just dipped our toe with the local pub, but we stumbled on a gem. We had maybe the best Sunday roast (beef was amazing) and came back for the Monday night curry which again did not disappoint. Shame we are only here for 2x nights otherwise we would be back for more.

Over a number of recent years our family have shared many lunches at weekends at the Mill House. Without exception we have enjoyed lovely food, a friendly service and good value in this lovely authentic Cornish setting. The smaller restaurant area adjacent to the bar is our favourite place to eat, however on busier days there is a further separate comfortable restaurant area with lots of light which is very pleasant also.

This is the first poor review i have given on Trip Advisor. I really hate to give a bad review but feel i have to. We had the Pauper's Supper, which was recommended by other reviewers on this site. I ordered the Chef's Lamb Curry for main. This is possibly the worst meal i have ever had - gristle in a chip shop curry sauce. I do not think there was one piece of edible lamb in the entire dish. I did complain, which is very unusual for me. The waitress wasn't interested in offering an apology, or more.

We were staying down the road at the PortWilliam, and decided to nip out one evening to try the 'competition'. Glad we did. Apparently Wed night is 'Paupers Night' at the Mill, with a bargain 3 courser for £17.50 on offer. Absolutely stunning value with bags of choice . Reasonably priced wine and good selection of Tintagel ales. Great night out.

Stopped by for lunch. All food was ok except for my daughters squid bites and chips. It was all very oily and the squid rings themselves tasted like they were just bought in frozen squid rings. In an area with such good seafood it seemed a real shame that the seafood was so poor. Fresh is always best

Pauper's is every Wednesday during the low season. A limited but excellent menu is available with fixed prices for starters, mains and puddings. I had a really excellent meal there tonight with friends. Fish dishes are especially good and a warm welcome awaits you.

Me and my beautiful wife had our wedding here on the 20th of September. I have to say that the venue is stunning and the food is delightful. And the staff are out of this world so helpful and just brilliant. Big thank you to mark and all his wonderful staff, thank you for making our big day so magical. James and Andrea

We had driven past this pub several times on the way to Trebarwith Strand but decided to try it for lunch on holiday.

Food was divine! Couldn’t fault it. Excellent value. Recommended this place by friends. Ample parking. Restaurant is light and airy. Delightful friendly staff. Great menu. Fillet steak was amazing. Cooked perfectly. Served rare. With lovely side salad and fries with a few veggies.

Book a table during the high season. Staff very welcoming and good service. Thursday night is steak night for £10. My husband and I had an excellent rump steak with all the trimmings and perfectly cooked. There are other options on the menu. Also starters and desserts. We ate in the restaurant which was very pleasant.

Stumbled on this by chance and so glad we did.

A great meal! From the entrance looks like a good bar, it is really good beers. The menu on line looks like really good bar food. It is however far better than that! We had a table for 6, really attentive service and top drawer food.

I am only able to give this 1 out of 5 as we didn’t even get to order a Sunday Lunch! We stumbled on this place quite by accident during our holiday and planned to go for a Sunday Lunch. After checking their website we found it a little confusing on times of service. However the section stating ‘Sunday Lunch Menu’ quite clearly states service until 3:00pm. So we headed off on our 45min journey and arrived at 2:25 only to be told they had stopped serving. I pointed out the website times and was just given blank looks from the bar staff! They rung the chef and he confirmed that service had closed.

My husband and I ate here recently. It looked much better on the website than in reality: dining room is “rustic” and not the cleanest - needs some TLC. Loud music coming from the bar area was off putting. The food was ok, though my husband had fish and chips; the batter was soggy and fish look as if it could have come from a frozen packet - given that this is situated in a coastal county it was very disappointing. The waitress (who added ‘no worries’ to every sentence grrrrr!) said she would pass on our comments to the chef.
