St Mawes Hotel

The St Mawes Hotel is well located in this pleasant village, being close to the ferry to Falmouth and a shortish walk to the castle. We dropped in for some drinks prior to returning to Falmouth on the boat. I was mortified to be charged £19 for a pint of Doombar and a large glass of Sauvignon Blanc. This eclipsed even Central London for exorbitance. The same drinks cost between £12 - £15 in other Cornish venues. We were going to have a couple more drinks there, but needless to say, we drank up and departed.

We stayed for 3 nights in June. The staff were great throughout our stay . Breakfast was excellent - looking out over the estuary from the 1st floor. We also had dinner two nights out of 3 and it was also very good. Our room was modern , spotless and serviced everyday. There is no car parking at the hotel but the local council car park is a two minute walk away - £7 for each 24 hours . The hotel is also just a one minute walk from the harbour and ferry over to Falmouth. Overall a jolly nice place to stay in Cornwall.

Dropped into the St Mawes Hotel after a long coastal walk to quench the thirst. We’re staying in St Mawes up the road and had walked past a couple of times and it didn’t look like anything special but the choice of drinking spots in St Mawes is limited! We walked in and were totally taken aback, with its modern interior, smartly dressed attentive staff and laid back atmosphere. It was relatively busy with other walkers so we sat at the bar and had a pint each. It’s also worth mentioned well behaved dogs are allowed! We spotted the specials board and were tempted by the food so took a table in the window and ordered bread of the table, fish finger sandwich and an extra serving of truffle fries. The food was fantastic, we shared the dish and there was still plenty and didn’t manage to eat all of it! The sandwich was a towering burger with plenty of freshly fried fish goujons and tangy tartare sauce! The triple cooked chips that it was served with were delicious too , as were the additional portion of truffle fries but alas our eyes were bigger than our belly’s and we couldn’t eat it all! So impressed with the whole experience, we have decided to go back for dinner tonight!
