Property details
The Old Quay Inn is located in Devoran, at the head of Restronguet Creek, surrounded by some of Cornwall’s most scenic countryside. The pub sits directly alongside the coast-to-coast cycle and walking trail, placing it in a strong position for daytime trade and visitors to the area. Its waterside setting and uninterrupted views create a clear sense of place, distinguishing it from other pubs in the region.
The pub blends modern décor with traditional character, creating a setting that works across both everyday visits and more planned occasions. Inside, the space is supported by open fires and comfortable seating areas, giving the pub a warm and welcoming feel throughout the year. The pub is also home to the Devoran pilot gig club, with gig‑related photos and artefacts on display, adding a distinctive link to the local area.
Food plays a central role in the business, with an established offer and clear scope to develop a high-quality, seasonal menu that encourages repeat visits and builds a strong reputation over time. There is also an opportunity to grow a daytime offer, making the most of the setting for light lunches, informal dining and social visits.
Drinks remain an important part of the offer, with a well-kept range of ales alongside a considered selection of wines, gins and soft drinks.
A key feature of the site is the terraced garden overlooking the creek, providing a standout space during warmer months and reinforcing its position as a go‑to destination.
The pub includes private on-site accommodation, comprising three bedrooms, a kitchen and a lounge. There are plans to refresh the accommodation with new décor and carpets throughout, improving the overall living space for an incoming publican.
