Great place away from overcrowded tourism

The White Hart is a very nice place to stay for a week: outstandingly friendly and customer oriented host and staff. The room was not very large and basic, but had everything we needed. The location of the accommodation is perfectly located in the nicest part of Cornwall; very good if you want to stay away from overcrowded touristic locations. The food (breakfast and dinner) was great. Overall, we spent perfect holidays in St. Keverne. Thank you very much.

Mobile signal bad on most networks for miles around, wifi in the pub very, very poor (they know this) - it only just works in one place! Do not rely on that unless a BT wifi subscriber, where the service is apparently good (but a stupid price if you do not already subscribe - not that I was desperate). Good breakfast.

We stayed for 8 nights at The White Hart in May 2022. The pub is located in the village of St Keverne and has good bus connections to Truro, Helston and the nearby seaside village of Coverack, which is great for windsurfing and watersports. The buses stop right outside the pub in in the village square. The staff at the White Hart were really friendly. Breakfast was excellent, as were all of the meals we had including the Sunday roast. There's also a good selection of local ales and ciders in the bar. The accommodation was located at the back of the pub in an annex. Our room had three beds and a giant bathroom with wetroom. It was perfect for drying wetsuits and even our paddleboard. Parking was located next to the room, so was great for loading and unloading the car. The White Hart is also located close to the South West Coast Path and there's a nearby public footpath leading to Coverack (about a 2 mile walk). Overall our stay was thoroughly enjoyable and the staff at the White Hart couldn't have been more friendly and helpful.

Quiet, comfortable and a great base to explore.

If you want to stay in an area where it’s quiet, still with plenty to do, but pleasant and friendly surroundings with a good base to explore other areas then you won’t be disappointed here. The staff are lovely, with a fantastic breakfast, the room we stayed in was comfortable and clean and the price was very reasonable indeed. Myself, my wife and step daughter had a 5 night stay and were welcomed warmly on arrival, the staff answered questions about what to do and where to go around the area. We visited the Seal Sanctuary which is only 7 miles away and had an amazing day there. We walked to Godrevy cove which was an adventure. The 1st night there we had a lovely meal which was reasonably priced (We would of eaten here more often but for going to the Isle of Scilly, St Ives, Penzance, Helton and not getting back till late) Choice of drinks including real ale. We wouldn’t hesitate in booking here again, and at some point in the future we definitely will.

First night we ordered dinner in there but was not good at all so put us off to have there the breakfast as well. I wouldn’t recommend and I would not come back again.

Top class

What a great Inn to stay in. A welcome reception where nothing was too much trouble. And a clean cosy room to sleep in too. Clean bathroom, great shower. My only niggle was lack of signal in the room which certainly isnt the hotels fault but a bit of Wifi maybe a Compromise. However, the Bar had a secure wifi and some lovely beers to help! Thank you, hope to stay again.

This is a lovely little pub in a lovely little village in Cornwall. The food and service were both excellent. The room was charming with high ceilings and exposed wood beams. I couldn't believe the value on a bank holiday weekend. I would highly recommend this place.

Great pub to base yourselves for a Cornwall trip!

Great little pub near Cornwall - within 30 minutes of all major attractions. It was great to base ourselves here, just 20 minutes walking from a beach with all of the facilities nearby (Spar across the road, living at a pub); Wifi could be improved in the rooms, but breakfast every day was great and the value of the stay is outstanding for the area.
