Travellers and employees of the Great Western Railway once frequented this 19th-century inn, which was named after a visit by King Edward VII to a local copper mine. The pub is now on the Atlantic Coast line of the 'Rail Ale Trail', and the building is much extended, with an open-plan bar serving a variety of real ales. Leading off are the dining areas which comprise a cosy beamed room and conservatory. The long bar menu offers everything from pizzas and burgers to sandwiches, salads and omelettes, and grills and jackets. The restaurant menu includes three cheese tortellini, loin of cod, and chicken tikka masala. Fifteen comfortable rooms are available.
