During a self catering holiday we happened upon Driftwood Spars on a cool windy April day. We have two dogs (well behaved of course!) & we were literally given a warm welcome with lovely comfortable seats close to a blazing log fire. We had a most enjoyable lunch & would certainly go back. Highly recommended.

we arrived in the middle of a typical Cornish downpour, to be welcomed with a blazing log burner and a pint of Cornish rattler. Feeling peckish we chose light dishes from the menu, having coeliac disease we confirmed the dish i chose was safe with the staff who were very helpful. Unfortunately the chef got a little confused and confirmed... More

We nipped in here for a light lunch in between showers whilst visitng Trevaunance Cove. This to me is what you envision when you think of a Cornish Inn. Friendly staff, friendly locals. The pub was very cosy and I could easily have imagined many nights supping a pint of two had we being staying locally! The menu was compact... More

I stayed here for 1 night on a business trip to Cornwall. Great location near sea, great atmosphere in traditional pub with good selection of real ales, and good food selection. Room was very good with view of sea, all at a very competitive price. Above all the staff were very friendly and courteous, they even posted an item that... More

We stayed in one of the garden rooms slightly away from the main building - slept soundly. Very clean lovely room. I feel like we've discovered a little gem here, the village is lovely, the hotel is in a cove with gorgeous views. We were really impressed by the pub, it's got such great atmosphere and character, food was good... More

Dirty bed linen, paper thin walls allowing us to hear complete conversations from neighbouring room including their phone vibrating when they receieved messages and loud humming noise intermittently throughout the night resulted in us getting hardly any sleep so only staying the one night instead of two as planned.

Our second stay and this is a lovely Pub in a wonderful location. Staff are friendly and helpful, food very good. February is very much out of season but still a great place to visit. We had a nice room with a sea view. The Pub itself is full of character with a real sense of community. Thoroughly recommended

We stayed at the Driftwood Spars over New Year and the whole experience was fantastic. We stayed in garden house which o.k. could have done with a face lift but it was clean, spacious and perfect for the short break we planned. The locals were great and made us feel very welcome, the staff at the hotel were first class... More

I have always loved St Agnes and visited many, many times over the last fifteen years. At some point I will always end up in the Driftwood Spars. This time we stayed for three nights in a room in the main building. We have had rooms in the garden house before but found them extremely tired for want of a... More
