Restaurateurs Paul Ainsworth and Emma Ainsworth will relaunch the 100-year-old St Enodoc estate in Rock, Cornwall, following an extensive renovation on 27 July 2026.
The initial phase of the development includes the introduction of two new dining concepts, a luxury wedding venue, and dedicated corporate event spaces. A planned second phase of the project will focus on upgrading the property’s 21 guest bedrooms and constructing a new gym and wellness centre.
The culinary offering at the venue will feature the Estuary Grill, which will serve locally sourced meat and seafood, alongside a seasonal outdoor pizzeria named the Flour Garden. The centrally located St Enodoc Bar will also open daily to provide beverage services for both local residents and visiting hotel guests.
The site has operated as a coastal retreat since the 1920s and features direct access to the championship course at the neighbouring St Enodoc Golf Club.
Ainsworth said: “Emma and I share a clear vision for St Enodoc: to honour a place rich in soul and history, bringing a renewed sense of energy and accessibility to its next chapter without losing what has always made it so special. We want St Enodoc to be a place for everyone to enjoy, whether you’re staying locally, travelling from afar or living around the corner. We can’t wait to welcome guests from the moment they arrive, with the same warmth and hospitality that runs through everything we do across our Collection, this time in a truly extraordinary setting.
“With the most incredible views, in a place that means so much to Emma and me, our ambition is for St Enodoc to become a year-round destination, not just for those of us who love Rock and Cornwall, but for visitors from across the UK and beyond to enjoy.”
