Cosy · Pub Grub
Hidden in the tiny hamlet of Mithian between Perranporth and St Agnes, this 16th-century stone pub is one of Cornwall’s great secrets. Thick walls, low beams, cosy snugs, and a kitchen that’s earned a fierce local following for its Sunday roasts and daily specials made from the best local produce.
Ice Cream
Handmade Cornish ice cream crafted for over 50 years using local Rodda’s cream and milk. The flavours change regularly — blueberry cheesecake, banoffee, rum & raisin — alongside fresh crêpes, Belgian waffles, sundaes, and even stone-baked pizza. Dog-friendly, with peanut butter dog ice cream to prove it.
Fish & Chips
A Perranporth staple for over 50 years, Pickwicks does the proper thing — fresh cod in crispy batter and chips cooked in beef dripping. A 70-seat diner with takeaway too. Sometimes the queue’s worth it.
Asian
A hidden gem on St Pirans Road — a small, unpretentious Thai takeaway that punches well above its weight. Fresh spring rolls, fragrant curries, and most dishes available in vegetarian or vegan versions. Open daily from 4pm; get there early as it gets busy.

A 16th-century thatched inn tucked away in the hamlet of Trebellan near Cubert — well worth the short drive inland. Roaring log fires, local ales, a legendary specials board using fresh Cornish produce, and a Pie & Ale Festival every May Bank Holiday. A genuine destination pub.

The “Tye” is a proper local pub at the heart of Perranporth — split-level bar, home-cooked food served daily, a famous Sunday carvery, and regular live music. One of those places that feels like it’s been there forever, because it has.
What Our Guests Say
Absolutely love staying at Seven Dunes. We have stayed here a number of times now. It is spotless, tastefully decorated and a minute from the beach 5 minutes to local shops and places to eat. Bedding and towels are supplied which is a bonus. Windbreaks. Everything you need to eat in, however there are some excellent places to eat in Perranporth though would recommend you book during the busy months. Love Seven Dunes (jokingly call it our second home) and Perranporth such a great place.
