Ah! So they have a public holiday the day before the rest of us - I see.
Still wouldn't go back. Looks wondeful - but rubbish service

Hot September day and sat outside. Nice pint of cider and the pasties are great

This place is a barony. Research the web to see that its owned and controlled by one estate family. To their credit their grip is so firm it is unspoiled and preserved in a time wrap, but the attitude to making money is to their discredit. This pub is a gem architecturally. The snug and bar date from another era. But on a Thursday evening we found that much of the bar menu was "sold out". The beer prices were OK, but take a look at the wine list and the half board rate. Amazingly expensive! We stayed at a BB on the quay and the owner couldn't be bothered to make us a sandwich to take as a packed lunch - we were walking the coastal path. He told us to get one at the post office - which of course did not sell sandwiches. It's worth visiting Clovelly to see an unspoiled place, but don't stay or eat there.

Visited the pub last year and canīt wait until my next time in Clovelly. Will book into the Hotel and see what the village is like when the day visitors have left. Old fashioned bar, with decent beer (according to my Husband) Shandy was nice as well.
Had a pleasent meal in the small bar.

Visited in October 07. Fantastic setting. Nice pint and good lunch time food. The snug is wonderful with the locals mixing well with the countless visitors.

See Mr Crow visited on new years eve. What a surprise that he found the service slow and food not the top of the range. Perhaps this day is a local holiday in those parts.
