Trewellard Arms, Trewellard, Penzance

Similar to the nearby North in the sense that not a vast amount has happened to it over the last 40 years. This one’s less charming though, a long plain main room in the front and a more homely little one behind the bar. Classic colours - white, varnished wood trim, beams, red pub carpet and some floor tiling. Look out for the pretty wood-carved lower servery. GBG listed, six pumps with three ales and two ciders offered 2x Tintagel and Salcombe for the casketeers. My Cornwall Pride was tidy (NBSS 3.5) and the Castle Gold even better (4), served-up by a chatty and genial landlord who is a Cornish Onslow. There’s a regular (for Cornwall!) bus service, so easy to get out here from Penzance. Based on the beer quality and friendly welcome, I recommend you do. 8.5
