The Hawkins Arms is an historic coaching inn and one of the oldest pubs in Cornwall.
Situated on the old highway from London to Land’s End, the pub was originally called ‘The Half Moon’ but in the 19th century was renamed ‘Hawkins Arms’ to honour west country Elizabethan seafarer, Sir Richard Hawkins, nephew of Sir Francis Drake and a commander in Drake’s fleet fighting against the Spanish Armada.
Owners Adam and Alex are justifiably proud of their homely, family-friendly ‘Free House’ pub, restaurant and guest house. Where you can enjoy a pleasant drink with good food in a relaxed environment – which during the winter months has a log fire burning away.
