Elliot Arms

The picturesque Eliot Arms is situated in the centre of the Cornish village of Tregadillett on the outskirts of Launceston. The pub is easy accessible being just a couple of minutes off the A30, one of Cornwall's major access routes. Tregadillett provides an excellent base for touring in the region as it is within a short distance of Bodmin Moor, Dartmoor and the north Cornish resorts at Bude, Widemouth Bay, Boscastle and Tintagel (the latter being the main focal point for Arthurian legend). The beautiful National Trust property at Lydford Gorge is within 20 minutes drive, as is Cornwall's premier tourist attraction, the Eden Project.

The inn itself is an unusual and interesting building. It was constructed in the 14th century, becoming a coaching inn during 1625. The building fell into disarray in the early 19th century and became a blacksmith's shop before being restored to a public house in 1840 when the name Eliot Arms was added to the original name of Square and Compass (the area was known as Compass many years ago).

The bar and restaurant areas are full of nooks and crannies housing Masonic memorabilia, pictures, antique grandfather clocks and many other interesting artifacts. The bedrooms are well furnished in country style with en-suite facilities, TV and complementary beverage tray with one bedroom housing a romantic four-poster bed.

The Eliot Arms has a fine reputation for its food with locally sourced meats, Cornish fresh fish and shellfish used in a wide-ranging main menu and daily specials board.

A choice of real ales is available and there is an extensive wine list with each of the wines being available by the bottle or the glass.
