Never was a new cinema anticipated as much as this one. after months of apparent inaction on the…read morebuilding site suddenly St Austell's long awaited cinema opened its doors just in time for Christmas, with hundreds of local people losing bets that it would never open in time. How wrong we were - the building is modern, crisp, a vast improvement on the old cinema. Sweets, ice-creams and popcorn are reassuringly expensive (so stock up beforehand in your local supermarket) and there is a social bar area where you can meet up with friends before seeing your chosen film. We found the seats comfortable, roomy, spacious - overall a surprise! The carpets are a bit 70s but can't have everything. There isn't any parking nearby yet but it means you have plenty of time to discuss the film on the way back to your car. In summary, a pleasant surprise, a real treat for St Austell, and one we will go to again and again!

This cinema is a great investment for the area. It's well built and most importantly all 4 screens…read moreare really good. The seating is well angled and comfy and the projector and screen quality are high (digital I would guess, not sure if 4K though). Sound system also seemed good and I did not hear any noise coming from other screens. My main criticism is that the management clearly have no clue about anything digital. The website is poor, the online booking system and ticket collection system are terrible. They are not listed on Google cinema. But ignoring all that, there's a good chance you will enjoy the movie. Oh, and they serve Ben & Jerrys icecream.

I did grab my purse and bag but had to leave all our just purchased concessions behind. It was cold outside and a lot of customers were milling about but no one came out to give us instructions. Then someone said it was an electrical problem and we couldn't go back inside so my son in law went and got the car and we left, sadly leaving two buckets of popcorn, candy and drinks at our seats. Those things sure aren't cheap plus we now have to try and get reimbursed by a third party ticket agency.

Delighted that this cinema has re-opened after being closed for several years…read more The Rebel has been refurbished and now has a much improved sound system. One big screen and very comfy seats. Good selection of refreshments; clean toilet facilities. Shows a variety of mainstream movies on general release, with clever timetabling so that there's a good selection of films throughout the week. Recommend prebooking at busy times, esp in holidays as it can get very busy. The car park can also be crowded, so worth sharing a car if you can. VERY pleased to have a local cinema back again. Congrats all round.

The inside of theatre is spacious and very clean.

We also make use of student discount which is really a good method of reducing the ticket prices and helps lowering of ticket prices.

The blurb:…read more The Barn Cinema is an independent cinema situated in a renovated 14th century barn within the grounds of the beautiful Dartington Hall estate, near Totnes. The Barn runs a wide-ranging film programme , including independent arthouse, world and mainstream cinema, seven days a week as well as a children's matinee programme on Saturday afternoons. Cinema choice can be quite limiting in Torbay where only the mainstream Hollywood movies are in abundance. The Barn Cinema at Dartington Hall has been a wonderful find to say the least and so far we have managed to see Blindness, Cypher and Planet Terror. Okay so slightly more mainstream than independent, but these films would have probably involved trips to either Exeter or Plymouth. The seating may not be especially comfortable and could well benefit an upgrade, however they may be constrained by the heritage nature of their venue, and as such loses one star. Don't expect your average multiplex with their cheap popcorn and drinks, this is a more discerning cinema. Couple with a meal at the White Hart, this makes for a great night out at the movies.
