The Bush Inn is a 13th Century free house in the beautiful parish of Morwenstow. Rich in character, this hidden gem is one of the oldest pubs in Cornwall, with a history of hospitality dating back to around 950AD.
Less than a mile away from the North Cornish coast, the Bush Inn is a perfect stopover for those hiking the South West Coast Path. This one-of-a-kind pub has a quirky bar area oozing charm, as well as a bright, modern restaurant offering stunning views of the sea.


Being a rural pub in this beautiful part of the world, we strive to source as many local ingredients from the land around us. We pride ourselves in using quality local produce wherever possible with all of our eggs, dairy, poultry, beef, pork, lamb and potatoes coming from local suppliers in North Cornwall, some of which are farmers from here in Morwenstow. We even have our own herd of beef cattle situated just half a mile down the coastline.
We serve food 12pm-9pm every day, offering a variety of dishes from pub classics, salads, pies & fresh focaccia sandwiches.
We also have a vast array of Cornish drinks including Cornish gin, Bude rum, ales, lagers & ciders.
We are excited to announce that we will now be serving breakfast on Wed-Sun 8am-12pm, commencing Wednesday 29th July!

What really sets The Bush apart is the combination of outstanding food and genuinely friendly service. It’s clear that everyone takes real pride in what they do, and that care shines through in every aspect of the experience. We left feeling relaxed, well looked after and already looking forward to returning.

I wanted to visit The Bush Inn, as it had come up on my searches before coming to Cornwall. Food exceptional. My husband's "best ever" roast dinner he said. Staff very friendly, pub clean and tables set with room.Set in rolling hills with lovely views and outside seating for warmer weather.

Really delicious food and a menu with something on it for everyone. The onion rings are a must have! Great service from friendly staff, and a lovely warm atmosphere in the pub. Especially grateful as they managed to sit four of us indoors on a busy Friday. Thank you for a brill evening
