Discover the charm of our historic village pub

Our traditional thatched pub is nestled in the ancient village of Crantock on the Cornish north coast, just west of Newquay. For over 400 years The Old Albion Inn has been a place where beer is served, music is played and stories are told and you can still find all of that, along with restaurant quality food here, in our beautiful Cornish village pub.
