The West Country is filled with stunning locations, ideal for day trips or weekends away. But perhaps one of the most eye-catching destinations for a perfect day out is a Cornish pub where you can spot dolphins from the beer garden.
The Bowgie Inn near Newquay overlooks Crantock beach, known for its large expanse of golden sands. And now the pub has gone viral after being visited by a Tiktoker who was blown away by it, reports Cornwall Live.
More than a million people have seen CJ's (@cjexplores) video since he shared it, with others sharing similar experiences of the bar. “You have to visit this pub in Cornwall for its incredible beach views. Wow look at that view,” the caption on his video said. The footage shows CJ walking through the pub and out to the beer garden, from where the sapphire sea can clearly be seen.

The location is for swimming, snorkelling, surfing and wind-surfing and there is board and canoe hire there for anyone who wants it.
People in the comments rushed to share their love of the pub. One wrote: "Been here so many times it's lovely."
Another said: "The Bowgie Inn is legendary for its parties and BBQs. So many good times in Crantock - beautiful." A third added: "No, don't encourage everyone to go. It's one of our favourites!"
Another wrote: "The Bowgie overlooks Crantock beach and if you're lucky you can sit with a nice cold beer and watch the dolphins chase the surfers along the waves.”
And some reviewers on TripAdvisor were equally as impressed. One person wrote: "The setting/location of the place is lovely. The interior and exterior are decorated beautifully."
Another said: "Last Sunday enjoyed a beautiful steak with all the trimmings in the company of family and friends. Service was attentive and food well presented and absolutely delicious."
