Historic Guest House Questionnaire
Year erected: 1871
What is the history of the property?
A Vicarage built on the site where Edward Benson was once a visiting vicar for a short period. The land was donated by the duchy to the diocese and the then Prince of Wales part paid to build the house to attract Edward Benson to the area. He was appointed first Bishop of Truro and went on to be archbishop of Canterbury and is buried in Westminster cathedral. (He never did end up staying here after all it should be stated).
What was the era and/or the architectural style in which the property was built?
Mid Victorian
Is the property surrounded by other historic buildings?
The house is in the rural hamlet of Davidstow, only the village church remains.
Has restoration work taken place?
The house was renovated in the 1970s and was then very out of date, interior wise. We have completely renovated and taken the interior back to a Victorian/Edwardian style.
Are there any elements of particular historical importance at the building?
One of the upstairs bedrooms has a ornate paneled tin ceiling, very unusual and in material wise very valuable.
Are there any important guests or previous owners worth mentioning?
The then Prince of Wales is believed to have visited /inspected the site. He would go on to become Edward the 7th.

Historic InnSummary of reviews related to the 'Historic' categoryIf you're a history buff, the Port Gaverne Hotel is an absolute must-visit. The hotel is housed in a beautiful old pub that pays homage to its history with carefully themed decor that includes multiple photos of the building in earlier periods. Dating back to the 16th century, this hotel is full of character and old world charm, featuring authentic antiques, brass and flint flag stone floors and a traditional feel about the pub.

But don't let the age of the building scare you off - while some guests noted that the narrow steep staircases may be a challenge for those with mobility issues, visiting for a meal or drink is still highly recommended. Plus with its stunning location and historic character, you won't want to miss the chance to experience this unique property. And if you're a fan of the hit show "Doc Martin," you'll be excited to know that it was filmed here.

While some reviews mention that the hotel suffers from poor historic extensions, most guests rave about the beautifully renovated old inn and the personal and comfortable rooms. So if you're looking for a hotel with a sense of history and character, the Port Gaverne Hotel is the perfect place for you.
