Gurnard’s Head Michelin Restaurant

Gurnard’s Head Michelin Restaurant

Surrounded by nothing but fields and livestock; a dog-friendly pub with shabby-chic décor, blazing fires and a relaxed, cosy feel. Menus rely on regional and foraged produce and the wine list offers some interesting choices by the glass. Compact bedrooms feature good quality linen and colourful throws.

Home to so many interesting and dedicated people who grow and nurture plants and animals, West Cornwall is a wonderful place in which to run a kitchen. And, like so many things, food is best kept simple. We have built the reputation of the Gurnard’s Head’s kitchen on this maxim. Our short, fresh and seasonal menu changes every day according to what is brought to our back door or what our chefs feel is at its seasonal best. In Winter you might get Fish Soup with Rouille or in summer, a Ceviche of Sea Bass alongside leaf salads foraged by Fat Hen. The tables in the bar, warmed by log fires and bordered by back copies of Giles cartoon annuals, are as popular as those in the red and blue dining room. On the more beautiful days between March and October, eating in the huge enclosed garden has the power to be one of those moments in life when everything comes together.
