He might not be Cornish by birth but Nathan Outlaw has certainly made Cornwall his home, with this smart yet laid-back offering occupying a great position on the headland. There are few other chefs in the country who understand and execute seafood cookery quite as well; his menus are guided by the daily catch and the refined, pared-back dishes feature classical combinations which keep the focus firmly on the ultra-fresh ingredients. Service strikes the perfect balance of professional yet personable and the signature Porthilly sauce is unmissable. Bedrooms are available in the Guest House across the road.
