Bugle Inn

The Bugle Inn is located at 57 Fore Street, Bugle, Cornwall PL26 8PB, right in the centre of this traditional clay country village. Bugle developed during the 19th century around the china clay industry, and the pub itself predates much of the village, even lending its name to the settlement. With the A30 on the doorstep and just five miles north of St Austell, the pub offers excellent access to both the north and south coasts. The Eden Project is only four miles away, and the Clay Trails walking and cycling network links Bugle to local attractions including Wheal Martyn, bringing steady visitor traffic through the area. This combination of strong local identity and tourist accessibility creates a valuable dual income stream throughout the year.

Internally, the Bugle Inn has a warm and welcoming feel with traditional features and a layout that supports both drinking and dining. The main entrance leads into the central bar area, with a dedicated dining space to one side and a sports area for darts and pool to the other, helping to create a natural rhythm between food, drink and community activity. The commercial kitchen is well sized and fully equipped to support the current bar meals offer, with clear scope to develop a confident traditional pub food menu that performs strongly during peak visitor periods. The pub also benefits from five high-quality en-suite letting rooms, all finished to a good standard, providing an important additional revenue stream and the ability to grow occupancy through effective online marketing and local partnerships.

To the rear of the property is a good-sized decked area, ideal for seasonal trading and casual outdoor drinking and dining. While the pub fronts directly onto Fore Street with strong visibility, it also benefits from a rear public car park with space for approximately 12 vehicles, a valuable asset for both diners and overnight guests.

The private accommodation comprises three bedrooms along with an open-plan lounge, dining and kitchen area and one bathroom, providing comfortable on-site living for a Business Partner.
