Those planning on staying in Cornwall holiday cottages may want to visit the Victoria Inn on their visit to the county.
The pub has been noted as one of the best in the region by the Telegraph’’s Cornwall Pub Guide for its efforts to surpass the traditional offerings of gastropubs with its haute cuisine.
Situated near St Michael’’s Mount in the village of Perranuthnoe, the Victoria Inn is more of a restaurant with a bar than a pub, according to the guide, selling dishes such as garlic and herb roasted chicken with ratatouille, green beans and pesto.
"At lunchtimes The Vic serves a pared-back menu catering for day-trippers and coastal path walkers. Ciabatta with grilled goat’’s cheese, tomato, rocket and pesto shows just how far even the humble ‘’sarnie” has evolved," the newspaper noted.
Teresa Timms of VisitCornwall recently told Business Cornwall that the standard of entries from restaurants, cafes and other attractions for the Cornwall Tourism Awards gets better every year.

I’ve eaten at The Victoria Inn a couple of times and it is very highly recommended. You might be surprised at the very high quality of some eateries in the surrounding area too – Our favourite is the Navy Inn in Penzance. A very new & promising arrival is the cafe at Scarlett Wines, The Old Forge, Lelant, nr Hayle. For good simple bar food I’d look at Country Skittles near Leedstown.
