Definitely a unique experience!

Carn Brea Castle really is something you won't find anywhere else! It's small and very...well... castle-like (think stone walls and wooden benches - cold in winter so dress for the occasion!). The menu is small and specialised, but they do what they do very well. The views stretch out over the nearest town to the north coast one way and over countryside towards the south coast the other. Fabulous place to enjoy the sunset and a meal on midsummer's day.

A unique dining experience!

We enjoyed a fantastic evening at Carn Brea Castle restaurant. The starters and mains were all delicious - I would recommend the fillet steak. The whole atmosphere was so unusual that it has to be experienced. Please note that it is very quirky with just one waiter running up and down the stairs, however, the service was excellent. On arrival you are invited to go up to the roof to admire the amazing views. It is a bit of an adventure to get there, particularly getting in and out of the car park! However, it is well worth the effort. Thoroughly recommended.

A unique experience for those looking for something a little different. Jordanian host Mr Sawalha and his family treat you to an evening of tasty middle eastern food and music within the granite walls of this historic building. A lovely host and very family friendly too.
The journey to the restaurant is also an adventure as it's a 700ft climb from the closest village to the top and the last part of the drive is along a winding dirt track.
