Set right on the water’s edge with breathtaking views of St Michael’s Mount, this much-loved pub is the perfect place to eat, drink, sleep and relax - come sunshine or rain.

We're delighted to share that the brilliant Godolphin team are staying on and joining the St Austell Brewery family, and we can’t wait to bring our signature warm hospitality, local food, and award-winning beers to this iconic Cornish location.

Andrew Turner, Chief Operating Officer, St Austell Brewery, said: “We are delighted to welcome The Godolphin and all the team into our managed pub estate. As a family business, we are passionate about operating the region’s very best pubs and The Godolphin is an exciting addition. The Godolphin is an important part of the local community as well as a favourite for the many visitors to the area, and we are looking forward to building on its reputation.” 

Andrew added: “This acquisition builds on the strong momentum we have in our managed pubs and follows the recent announcement about the transformative investment at the Pedn Olva in St Ives. This level of investment further demonstrates our commitment to West Cornwall and the Cornish hospitality economy more broadly.”

The Godolphin boasts a 120-cover indoor dining space.

Felix St Aubyn, Chief Executive, St Aubyn Estates, added: “We’re delighted St Austell Brewery are taking over The Godolphin, an iconic Cornish venue, that will continue to flourish under their care.

“I am very optimistic that this partnership, between two Cornish family businesses, will secure a bright future for The Godolphin for all those who know and love it.”

We're proud to have established relationships with some of the best local food suppliers across the South West, and will be sensitively evolving The Godolphin’s menu in the coming months to ensure the seafront venue continues to showcase the very best of the region’s produce. 

As well as a premium 120-cover indoor dining space, The Godolphin has 10 bedrooms and one of the most beautifully located outside terraces in Cornwall, boasting panoramic views across to St Michael’s Mount. We can't wait to welcome you for a drink and a bite to eat!
