The Nare
The Nare is an exclusive and privately owned 40-bedroom, five-star country house hotel. Traditionally managed, yet with proprietorial presence and charm, it is considered to be the most comfortable hotel in Cornwall. The Nare's brand of traditional hospitality and personal touches make for a truly relaxing stay all year round.

The Nare's spectacular south coast location provides the most delightful sanctuary and a choice escape from the stresses of everyday life. Situated in a secluded bay, the hotel is surrounded by beautifully landscaped gardens, rolling hills and boasts panoramic sea views over Carne beach. The Nare is hidden far from the madding crowd in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
Services
I am particularly proud to introduce you to The Nare which has been in our family's ownership for over 30 years. An AA 5-star hotel, it has been the highest rated hotel in Cornwall for the last three decades. Acquired by my grandmother, Bettye Gray, The Nare continues a century-long family tradition of running hotels.
The Nare is surely one of the most beautifully situated hotels in the British isles. Set on the Roseland Peninsula, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the hotel benefits from spectacular sea views and the natural beauty of the rural landscape.

Located south of Truro and just over four hours from London, The Nare is a perfect place to escape the hustle and bustle of life and discover the stunning natural beauty, culture, and historic sights on offer in Cornwall.
Nare bedrooms are both elegant and comfortable. Most are large and spacious and all rooms have the refinements one would usually find in a well-run country house; armchairs, books, magazines and fresh flowers. Some of our rooms are on the ground floor making them easily accessible and a lift is available to access rooms on the first floor.
Dining at The Nare is a luxurious experience. Guests will have the opportunity to have dinner in The Quarterdeck restaurant and the Dining Room during their stay. The Nare's reputation for fine dining has been established over many years, with both Nare restaurants receiving recognition for culinary excellence.
Carne Bay Spa is The Nare's charming spa facility. Located in a quiet corner of the hotel you will find two calming treatment rooms and a full menu of treatments designed to relax, de-stress and help you shake off the cares of the world. Spoil yourself with a massage, pamper yourself with a manicure or simply have your hair done for the evening.

Recently returned from another delightful 4-night stay at The Nare. This is a hotel that really understands its customer base and caters for it perfectly. That's why so many of us keep coming back....

Beautiful hotel, lovely staff. Decor is cosy and inviting, with elegance.
Stunning location and lovely beach, bit off the main routes, but worth it once you are there.

Another place which did not want my custom all we wanted was a Wednesday lunchtime drink in the sun was told not open to non residents. Do these places want to earn some money or not?
Anyway suggest going to the Plume of Feathers in Portscatho where the welcome was warm and friendly and it was packed out too. Take a note

Went to the quarterdeck restaurant in the Narefor a friend's Birthday and was surprised when I looked at the fairly limited menu and very little without fish. Luckily I love fish and started with the Thai crab cakes which were really nice! For my main I had half a lobster with potatoes and a salad. the lobster had been pre-removed from the shell and covered in garlic butter and was absolutely delicious! Finally I had the dessert of the day which was a sort of fruit mouse which was also delicious! I had an excellent lunch with the only thing being the lack of choice on the menu. Is was expensive

Looks lovely and great location but not open to non-residents if you're looking for a drink/lunch. Probably one to avoid for the foreseeable and pick one of the many in the area that are.
