The Bugle Inn, Bugle, St Austell

Visited: 12/06/2026 Accessibility: Getting in is problematical. Most of the main bar is on one level, but a steep set of steps has to be navigated to reach the toilets. We didn’t attempt it. Outside, accessibility isn’t much easier: there are two spaces by the rear door, but the car park itself is tiny, not […]

The Queen’s Head, St. Stephen

Visited: 08/05/2026 Accessibility: Parking front and back. Levels shift inside, but there’s a ramp for anyone who can’t manage the steps into the main bar. Toilets at the rear and easy to get to. A seating area at the back with great views of the local church. Eric been here before and hadn’t liked it, […]

The Silver Ball, St Columb Major

Visited: 31 May 2026Accessibility: No dedicated car park spotted. Small drop‑off space directly out front beside a few picnic tables. Level, wheelchair‑friendly route into the front bar area. Toilets are not on the same level as the front of the bar; there’s a step up to reach them. We didn’t see a car park at […]

Hawkin’s Arms, Probus

Visited: 29/05/2026 Accessibility: Car park at the back with a gentle slope leading to a well‑laid‑out beer garden. Front has a handy ramp close to the door. Toilets easier from the rear, though steps are required to reach the main bar. We parked at the back, where the ground is mostly flat and leads straight […]

Holmbush Inn, St Austell

Visited: Multiple times Accessibility: Level access from the rear car park. Dedicated disabled toilet (RADAR key) near the back door; key available from the bar. Inside is generally spacious but can feel tight when the pub is busy. The front of the pub sits directly on the main road with no stopping options, so parking […]

The Rising Sun, Portmellon

Visited: 23 March 2025 Accessibility: Small steps to enter and to reach the toilets. Adjacent car park not owned by the pub; on‑street parking a few hundred metres away is easier. A pub we’d been meaning to visit for a long time, not least because it sits right on the water and looked ideal for […]

Farmer’s Arms, St Columb Minor

Visited: 24/04/2026 Accessibility: Not fully assessed. We parked at the back of the pub where there are steps and Eric didn’t enter or use the toilets. A quiet pub in a great spot, tucked in the shadow of the local church tower. When we visited on a sunny Friday afternoon it was almost empty, which made […]

The Dolphin, Grampound

Visited: 15/05/2026 Accessibility: One disabled parking bay sits near the back door, but the rear entrance has some fairly high steps. The front door opens straight onto the A390, so Eric didn’t fancy stopping there to check it properly, though it did look a bit easier than the back. Overall: Accessibility issues aside, it’s a […]

The Britannia Inn, Par

Visited: Multiple Times Accessibility: Very good. Disabled parking bays close to the entrances to both the lounge bar and Waves Restaurant. Everything inside on the level so simple to navigate. It gets busy though so movement sometimes difficult. Easy to access disabled toilets if dining in Waves ask to sit close to reception. The Restaurant […]

The Rashleigh Arms

Visited: Numerous times Access: The adjacent car park with its historic, but very uneven surface, probably isn’t the easiest place to park. If mobility is an issue, better to either drop off on the main street in the adjacent lay by or use the car park on the other side of the road, accessed off […]
