About The Black Swan

Food and drink sit at the heart of The Black Swan, a traditional inn in Gweek near Helston with its own restaurant and bar alongside breakfast each morning. It's the sort of place where a meal and a pint are part of the stay rather than an afterthought, and the garden gives a spot to sit outside when the weather allows.

There are just four rooms, so the feel is intimate rather than corporate, with 24 hour reception on hand and free WiFi throughout. Practical extras include luggage storage, a laundry service, meeting rooms for those combining business with the trip, and free on-site parking, plus airport parking or transfer options for anyone arriving from further afield.

Beyond the inn's own kitchen and bar, Gweek has further pubs, restaurants and entertainment nearby, and the location gives easy access to the Lizard Peninsula and the wider attractions of this part of Cornwall. It suits guests who want a straightforward, well-equipped base with good food close at hand rather than a large resort-style hotel.
