About The Kings Arms Inn
The Kings Arms Inn suits couples looking for a straightforward base near the Cornish coast, with a pub at its heart rather than a formal hotel setup. Being adults-only, it's geared towards those after a quieter stay, with en-suite rooms, free WiFi, drinks available in room, and free on-site parking making the practical side of things easy.
The restaurant and bar are the main draw, known for generous homemade dishes such as steak and beef brisket pies, along with a popular Sunday roast. The atmosphere tends to be lively, and the food is considered good value, though service has occasionally been described as brusque rather than warm. Breakfast is included, and there's outdoor seating and a garden view for guests who want to eat or drink outside.
Bude itself offers walking and cycling routes, watersports, fishing and golf nearby, plus other pubs, restaurants and entertainment within reach, so there's plenty to fill days beyond the inn. It works well as a comfortable, no-fuss stopover for exploring the surrounding coastline.
