King Arthur’s Arms is fabulously located next to a huge car park, yet on Fore Street, which is the Main Street running through Tintagel and about 3 minutes walk to the top of the hill leading down to English Heritage’s Tintagel Castle. On arrival we were checked in at the bar by Jess with a very friendly Cornish welcome. The smell of cleanliness emerged us as we walked up to our huge room with double bed, wardrobe, dressing table, easy chairs and huge bathroom with double walk in shower, sink, toilet and heated radiator. Huge room for Cornwall and immaculate. We chilled out and wandered along and around Tintagel Castle, then back to the pub for dinner. It’s an extensive menu with huge portions. There was no issue with pub noise and we slept well, waking for an extensive breakfast which commences with a choice of pastries and cereals, then Full English, teas, coffees and juices! We were then able to stay parked for a few hours after check out at 10am to wander around Tintagel.
Really cannot recommend King Arthur’s Arms enough and particularly so to single parents with kids-safe, friendly and accommodating and shout out to Jess for super friendly service throughout!
I recently stayed at the County Arm Hotel and had a very pleasant experience. The cleanliness of the hotel was impeccable, and the staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful throughout my stay. The pub downstairs was also a highlight, offering great atmosphere and food.
The only minor drawback is that the hotel is a bit of a walking distance from the train station. While it should have been very affordable to take a taxi, my driver unfortunately took a detour, increasing the fare unnecessarily.
Despite this small inconvenience, I highly recommend the County Arm Hotel for its excellent service, cleanliness, and charming pub.
