“Awesome”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 August 2011 via mobile

My wife, brother, his partner and I traveled to st mawes for a wedding. My wife and I had left it to late to book and ended up stating in a near by campsite. Although this being the case the owners let us use their facilities to get ready. My brother was staying in the chalet room in the garden which was mad up of a bedroom, tv room and bathroom all of which were nicely decorated and in full working order. The owners gave us all a lift to the wedding venue and we had a small guided tour of the town on the way. We also offered a lift back later which was beyond any of our expectations. We were also invited back to have breakfast in the morning which was amazing. All in all this is one if the best b&bs I have been to and we didn't even stay the night. As we were only there for the wedding we didn't get to explore the town or its surrounding an we are really looking forward to returning soon and will defiantly making sure we book early enough to stay in this b&b.

“What a little beauty”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 May 2011

This B&B is the best we have stayed in for a long time. The rooms were very clean and the breakfast was fantastic. Phyllis and Hugh we very good hosts and made us feel very welcome. What more could you ask for it is very good value for money and I would recommend it to anyone.

“Great Breakfast!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 August 2010

Clean, comfortable accomodation with loveley hosts, who cook a fantastic breakfast!

I would happily recommend to anyone. If you have money, I'm sure you might get a nicer room or view elsewhere, but this was pretty good value.

The only downside is that it is at the top of the steep slope at the back of the town.

As for St Mawes......its very pretty!

“A welcoming comfortable guest house with a personal touch”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 June 2010

We booked this lovely guest house at the last minute and were very lucky to get a room. We stayed in the garden chalet room which had a double bed and a small tv room so you did not have to lie on the bed to watch tv. The decor was lovely and the whole chalet very clean. The bathroom was a good size and had a double shower. We stayed for four nights and had the towels changed after day two.
The hosts Phyllis and Hugh were very friendly and welcoming without being intrusive. Their local knowledge was invaluable re water taxis, ferrys and buses and resulted in us having some amazing coastal walks.
The highlight was definately Phyllis's huge breakfasts which set us up for the day and helped us on our walks.
St Mawes is a lovely village with great pubs and views across the bay. The only slight consideration is that if you having walking difficulties you may find the hill from the harbour to the guest house a challenge, it is however very easy to take a car down or you can walk a slighly longer way which is much easier. It does help you burn the breakfast calories off anyway !!
There is also a lovely garden and patio area which you sit at at anytime and enjoy the sea view.
We would certainly recommend this as a great place to stay!!
