Self-catering pods with private garden views, 11 km from the Eden Project

Accommodation

Polgooth Inn offers family rooms and glamping pods with self-catering kitchenettes, private entrances, and garden views. Each unit includes a flat-screen TV, private bathroom with hair dryer, and a tea/coffee maker. The pods feature a fridge, microwave, and work desk, with a sofa bed in deluxe options.

Dining

A continental breakfast is served daily, included with pod stays, with a full Cornish English breakfast available for an additional £10. The on-site bar/lounge area serves evening meals, including seafood biryani and market fish of the day. Guests can also enjoy locally sourced gastro-pub food in the restaurant.

Location

The hotel is 11 km from the Eden Project and 17 km from St Catherines Castle, with Newquay Cornwall Airport 22 km away. Pendennis Castle is 40 km from the property, and boating activities are available in the surrounding area. Free private parking is provided on site, and Newquay Train Station is nearby.

Family & Pet Amenities

Family rooms are equipped with kitchenettes, making self-catering easy for groups. Pet-friendly policies allow furry companions to stay in the pods, though no gate separates pod area from parking. Children can enjoy the outdoor garden space, and the pods have reclining chairs outside.

Outdoor Spaces

Each pod has a private garden setting with outdoor furniture and deck chairs for relaxing. The property features an outdoor garden space with a view over the valley, shared among the three pods. Underfloor heating keeps the pods warm in cooler months, and the pub grounds are quiet despite being next door.
