The Port Gaverne Hotel is a wonderfully nostalgic, old coastal inn situated in a tiny, ancient and time-honoured fishing hamlet overlooking Port Isaac Bay. Here you will find a world you thought had long ago disappeared. The fishermen's cottages still survive, but chambermaids no longer bring water to your room and you won't find Larks' Tongues or Swan Pie on the menu either, at this atmospheric place.  Instead, the rooms are all en-suite with every modern convenience, and the food is equal to that of the best of restaurants.  Or perhaps you prefer the splendid isolation and self-sufficiency afforded by one of the old cottages - all equally as up-to-date. Here you can sunbathe and swim from the small beach, or walk along to Port Isaac, surely Cornwall's most picturesque and unspoilt little harbour, where the fishermen still land their catch and the lifeboat answers the call of distressed mariners along this part of England's historic coastline. The holiday resorts of Newquay and Bude, fabulous sands and surfing beaches at Widemouth Bay and nearby Polzeath, world famous Tintagel where you will find King Arthur's Castle, and Padstow Harbour, are all close by along the coast. Whether you stay in one of the beautiful, self contained cottages, or at the inn.....whether you come to dine or just linger awhile and sample the atmosphere......you will find that you will want to return like so many others before
