The Dolphin, in Kingston is a picturesque 16th century village pub that sits nearby the local village hall and village church.

The pub is set in an ideal location, close to the beach and is in general a great stopping point along the South West coastal path. The site is frequently occupied by local residents and visitors and is known locally for hosting events, theme nights, quizzes and offering great Cask Marque ales.
The pub has beamed ceilings and stone walls offering a homely environment and some excellent facilities. There is parking for up to 12 cars. The internal space offers an open plan trading room with the bar running against the wall and the kitchen behind that. The main room offers a seating area at the front of the bar and two cosy clusters of seating at either end of the bar each with a feature inglenook fireplace, making the pub a warm and welcoming space for a drink on cooler days. There is also a kitchen serving around 30 covers and WIFI. The outside space will be receiving investment, with plans to install a covered alfresco dining area complimented with festoon lighting.
The pub also offers three en-suite letting rooms situated opposite the pub. We have plans in place to refresh the decor and make them an ideal spot for a weekend away.
