Job description

The 17th century Port Gaverne Hotel is nestled in a beautiful, secluded cove near Port Isaac on North Cornwall's dramatic coast. Relax in our traditional old bar with slate floors, wooden beams, and a wide range of proper ales served alongside seasonal, quality food inspired by the bounty on our doorstep.

The Port Gaverne has 15 ensuite rooms, each individually furnished. Please note, our rooms are situated on two floors of the building, and because the building is very old, we do not have access to an elevator. All rooms are accessible via a narrow, steep staircase with low ceilings, preserving the natural beauty of the place.

The beautiful, peaceful North Cornwall Heritage Coast is on our doorstep, with the beach just moments away.
