The oldest Inn in Looe

Main Content

The Jolly Sailor Inn

One of the oldest Inns in the country. Affectionately known as ‘the Jolly’, by the locals.
The heart of any inn is, of course, its bar, and the Jolly’s bar is a fine example of the olde English style,
with dark timber beams supporting the low roof and a roaring fire to warm the cockles on those cold coastal evenings. We even have "Cosy Corner", an area in the family room with sofas and a coffee table.
Behind the bar, a comprehensive selection of beers, wines and spirits are served with lagers, ciders and real ales available on draught. There is also a huge selection of gins.

Quiz nights on Mondays. Folk/Open Mic night on Tuesdays. Shanty Night on Thursdays. Regular music and events including bands, comedy, Rock and Roll Bingo, themed nights
The Jolly Sailor has been a place of rest and recreation for seafarers and travellers since 1516. Bed and (award-nominated) Breakfast, all bedrooms are tastefully decorated and furnished in keeping with the character and age of the building.

The Jolly Sailor has been a place of rest and recreation for seafarers and travellers since 1516.

Bed and Breakfast, all bedrooms are tastefully decorated and furnished in keeping with the character and age of the building.

Sea faring vessels used to moor right alongside the old part of the Jolly Sailor building, until land was reclaimed to build the cottages that are now adjacent to the pub.

The main beam in the Jolly was taken from a French ship of the line at the Battle of Trafalgar in 1805. The ship was captured and renamed The Indefatigable. When she was later broken up, the landlord of the time arranged for the beam to be installed in the main bar and it remains there to this day.

All rooms have spacious en-suite facilities.

Room 3 has an en-suite bathroom. Room 5 has a private separate shower & toilet.

A full English breakfast is served with alternatives available on request.
