Pubs are great place to meet the locals, enjoy a pint or some live entertainment whilst on holiday or enjoying some downtime. Unlike some other more urban areas a lot of Cornwall is very dog friendly. Pubs and restaurants regularly have outdoor spaces that welcome you and your dog outside and provide water so your dog gets their thirst quenched too. Not all establishments provide space indoors for your four legged friend and some are certainly more hospitable than others. We have picked out some of our favourites in this part of the world.
The Watering Hole, Perranporth
Less of a dog friendly pub and more of a dog drop in community centre, it sometimes feels like there are as many dogs as people in this very friendly drinking spot. Based in Perranporth, this pub allows dogs any time of the year. Check out The Watering Hole.
The Rockpool, Gwithian
Located between Gwithian and Godrevy, The Rockpool is a hot spot for live bands and serves some great food and ales. Dogs welcome on leads at all times. Check out The Rockpool.
Godolphin Arms, Marazion
This pub/restaurant in Marazion not only overlooks the mighty St Michaels mount it also boats some amazing outdoor seating to watch the sunset as well as some very special touches dedicated to your dog if you book a hotel room. Check out Godolphin Arms.
Blue Bar, Porthtowan
In our humble opinion, this pub in Porthtowan is one of the best places to watch the sun set in Cornwall. This is a dog friendly spot that provides access to water bowls, but also has dog biscuits for sale. Check out Blue Bar.
Gurnard’s Head, Zennor
Dogs are welcome in the Gurnard’s head for a quick thirst quencher as well as an overnight stay, but strictly only humans allowed on the beds.
Be sure to call ahead and check if your local watering hole allow four legged friends and make sure it’s not too loud for them in there. Check out Gurnard’s Head.
