The Ship and Castle Hotel, St Mawes

Hotel Location

St. Mawes is a pretty fishing village nestled at the end of the Roseland Peninsula, one of the most picturesque and unspoilt parts of the British Isles. Narrow streets and white-washed cottages help to give St. Mawes a quaint feel, and you’ll still find all the modern facilities you could need. Gorgeous gardens, galleries, quality cafés and restaurants and two beautiful beaches are just some of the highlights. If history and heritage is more your thing, popular historic attractions include St. Mawes Castle and the nearby Pendennis Castle. The harbour offers many boat excursions; explore the Fal Estuary on a river trip, or board the St. Mawes Ferry and enjoy world-class scenery as you make your way to Falmouth. Avid walkers should make a beeline for the St. Anthony headland, boasting panoramic coastal views and an abundance of wildlife. Take your pick and have the holiday of a lifetime!

Varied choice of meals the only comment is they did a four day menu and we was there for seven days so the meals started to repeat themselves. Hotel was clean and the staff was all very good and friendly.

We had a nice holiday we were very lucky with the weather. Its a shame there's no entertainment but there was noone really there. The bar was empty and it shut at 10 so very quiet. But the food was OK and the breakfast especially was nice. We have been several times to St Mawes and its lovely 😍
