PROPER JOB👍 The Ring of bells welcomes you from the moment you step of the main road in the front door (no joke). Service was friendly, efficient and helpful with good knowledge of menu. Food was excellently presented and tasted great. Plenty for your money as portions were not scrimped on. Loved it and hadn’t changed from the same cosy feel of over 30 years since I was last there. Thanks team for a lovely evening 👍☺ Walker Newmans
Gorgeous little country pub, large car park across the lane, lovely friendly service from the couple behind the bar. Food was superb – hot, tasty and nicely presented: it’s proper pub grub which is exactly what we were after. Reasonable prices and great local beer too. We’ll definitely be back.

Had a really nice meal, staff super friendly. Birthday and Anniversary celebration, were able to have a great meal whilst still being safe with well organised social distancing. Would highly recommend a meal in a traditional old English pub setting.

Found this place about 3 years ago, we visit this part of Cornwall twice a year and eat at the Ring o’ Bells most of the time, if you like good traditional fresh cooked food, then this is the place for you. A typical village pub with a very friendly atmosphere. Also dog friendly which for us is an added bonus! If in the area give it a try, you won’t regret it

Decent country pub with a friendly welcome at atmosphere. Dog friendly, reasonably priced on food and drinks, good selection of drinks available from the bar. Food was hot and tasty. Booking probably advised but we got there early and a table was spare..

With Foreign Travel severely restricted, competition for accommodation locally is pushing up rates. However, you will be delighted to hear that we are keeping our room rates the same as last year.

The Ring O Bells at St Issey, is located about two and a half miles south of the popular fishing port of Padstow and within easy travelling distance of some of the best sandy beaches in Cornwall (See: 7 Bays for 7 Days).
Here in the heart of the village stands our 17th Century Inn, nestled in picturesque rolling countryside with a small courtyard garden and intimate restaurant. The Ring O Bells is well known locally for serving really good quality home cooked fayre at ‘pub meal’ prices.
The perfect location
St Issey is ideally placed for anyone wishing to tour the North Cornwall coastline, with its rugged cliffs and beautiful sandy beaches.
Every year thousands of tourists visit the area, because of its great wealth of attractions, these include:
- Padstow with its pretty harbour and Rick Stein’s Seaview restaurant
- Harlyn Bay the famous surfers beach which is also perfect for bathers and walkers
- The long sweeping sands of Constantine Bay
- Trevone with its safe sandy beach and rocky outcrops harbouring a world of rockpools crabs and starfish
- The Camel Trail ever popular with cyclists and walkers that runs from Bodmin to Padstow
- The ruins of Tintagel Castle are just a short drive to the north
- Polzeath is an even shorter distance away and is considered to be amongst the best surfing beaches in the UK
There is something for everyone in North Cornwall and St Issey is just minutes away from the main Atlantic Highway, that runs all the way to North Devon.
Important:
You must call to book a table for food or drinks, as we are only able to host reduced numbers of guests, due to the current government restrictions.
Our opening hours are also reduced, to enable us to ensure that the highest possible hygeine is maintained.
Your safety is our primary concern and we hope to provide the very best possible experience, despite the limitations.

Good Pub Guide
“Traditional 17th century Cornish inn in small village setting, between Padstow and Wadebridge. Pork comes from proprietor’s own smallholding nearby and food is traditional pub grub at sensible prices. There are four rooms for overnight guests, including a family room, all at very low nightly rates, especially when compared to similar accommodation locally. Real ales include Betty Stoggs and other guest beers.”
