The Tree Inn

The Tree Inn in Stratton is one of those places where history isn't just a detail, it's woven into everything around you. Set within a former manor house with roots stretching back to the 13th century, it carries centuries of character, from low beams to timber said to come from shipwrecks along this stretch of coast, including a Spanish galleon. Just a short hop from Bude, it feels tucked away enough to slow things down, but close enough to be an easy detour.

Food and drink celebrate the local area, with seasonal produce and a strong lineup of beers, ciders, lagers and spirits that lean proudly Cornish. The atmosphere shifts beautifully with the seasons too, from sun-filled courtyard afternoons in summer to fireside evenings that make you want to stay just one drink longer in winter.

Dogs are welcome inside, so muddy paws can come straight in and settle while you do the same.
