Perfectly perched on the West Pentire Headland, overlooking the golden sands of Crantock Beach, near the popular surfing and family destination of Newquay.
The Bowgie is the place where you can momentarily escape to a slower pace of life with mind-blowing views and an enviable cliff-top location.
The panoramic coastal views of the unspoiled beach of Crantock, Polly Joke, the Gannel and the dramatic headlands nearby, help to inspire and regenerate the soul.
The ‘Bowgie’ which is Cornish for ‘cowshed’ is one of Cornwall’s most well-known and loved pubs, and has one of the most incredible beer gardens in the whole country. Andy Pickles has proudly owned the pub for 50 years, and back in the 1970s, he used to grow potatoes in the field on the cliff edge to make the pub chips! You can still see some of the original features of the old farm building which The Bowgie once was up until the 1950s, and hidden gems and traditional charm can still be seen throughout the pub.
Whether you want to warm up with a coffee after a chilly walk, catch some rays on our sun terrace with a glass of wine, refuel with some traditional home-cooked food or try a delicious Cornish gin from our huge selection – you will always be guaranteed a friendly welcome from owners Andy and Sally Pickles.
50 years of The Bowgie, so many eras and so many stories! Two things that never change are the fabulous people and the best view in the world, and we love them both!
We have lots of loyal, local customers and visitors who come back year after year – we get to see their families grow and love hearing stories about previous holidays and their fond memories of The Bowgie.
Children are welcome when accompanied by adults in our designated family areas, which are ideal for all ages.
Dogs are permitted outside in our terrace and beer garden only, which is fantastic for our four-legged friends. You can even treat them to a Bonio from a jar on the bar with a donation to the wonderful local canine charities.
Closing time is subject to change depending on bookings, so advanced reservations are strongly advised to avoid disappointment and can be made up to 3 weeks before your visit via our Book page or via the DishCult App: https://dishcult.com/restaurant/bowgieinnn
