The Cary Arms is a great hotel and restaurant. We stayed in Beach Suite 8, which has a terrace…read moreright on the bay with fully opening three panel glass doors from both the reception (living room) and bedroom. The suites are brand new as of 2016 and are finished to a high standard reminiscent of New England beach chic style. The hotel is extremely dog friendly, allowing dogs in the restaurant, and offering dog meals from the kitchen. They also have hamper service for breakfast, delivering a lovely breakfast to enjoy on your private terrace at 8:30 for ultimate luxury. Also, the restaurant has a somewhat secret vegetarian menu - above and beyond what's listed in the full menu. Be sure to ask to see it, as there are some good choices even if you're not strictly veg.

Stayed at the Cary Arms in August, and I could not recommend it enough, if you are looking for by…read morethe coast, relaxing, a special get away stay, and oh money is not object. Then this is the place. We stayed in the 'Admiral' room, and this has one of the most breath taking view, literally looks out to the sea and coast and cliffs. I truly unwind here, food was brilliant, and who knew staying at a pub will be so much fun, but this is by far the most classy pub I have been too, everything is so plush and a lot of effort has been put into details and offering a 5 star service. Getting here did prove a difficulty, not for the faint hearted, but what do you expect, a hotel being on a cliff edge. I thought my car would not make it back up the steep hill. But dont fear, they do provide assistance. The breakfast was good, lots of options, and everything was fresh, and have i mention the view, amazing. One interesting thing to mention, if you ever do visit or stay, there is the resident sea lion, which hangs just by the coast, completely harmless, the locals go swimming with it, likes it nothing. You can buy fish for the kind beast and feed it. Its astonishing. Amazing place, amazing service, when money is no object. Would love to come back.

Lovely views and cider and beers. The view can not be missed, drinking cider local and snack.read more

Amazing place! Officially the best and my personal favorite…read morepub in all of England. Circa 1540! Ceilings so low even I had to duck a couple times around the many old wood beams and brick arches all over the place. Very small but intimate, warm place with lots of little nooks and cool little places to cuddle up with your special one and a few great pints. Live music was excellent, and it definitely filled the place, making it actually a bit too hot for my comfort, but that's how the English do it. Seating outdoors as well for the smokers. Small bar food menu, but also an upper restaurant part as well with full menu of your usual British food. So glad we stumbled upon this place, somewhat hidden from the main road, and will always be a place we visit when in town.
