St Mawes Holiday Cottages

What our customers say about their holidays

  Excellent holiday apartment, clean, bright and fully equipped, they have thought of everything.

  We struggled a bit with the night storage heaters (instructions would have been helpful) but supplementary heating was available. Private parking is at a premium in St Mawes so it was great that this apartment had a private space right outside, albeit small and awkward - a Chelsea tractor wouldn't stand a chance. Having said that the Council car park is adjacent and charges not unreasonable (think it was £30 per week). The apartment is very central, once parked there is no need for a car as everything is within strolling distance. The bus to Truro starts from the Council car park. We recommend taking the bus to St Just where there is a beautiful church and gardens (and tea shop) and walking the coastal path back. Perefct. Lamorran Gardens are well worth a visit too.

  Stones Throw was very clean and well equipped.

  Fine for a couple or a family with two small children. Not much storage so we used the second bedroom to hang our clothes. The back of the flat gets no direct sunlight so the kitchen and second bedroom are dark. There is also a noticeable musty, damp smell when you enter. We used the allocated parking for our Honda Jazz without problem. There is a large, busy car park immediately in front of the flat so there is very little privacy. There is no area to sit outside. Stones Throw is very convenient for the shops, restaurants and pubs in St Mawes. Also great access to the bus and ferries. The owner, Paula is friendly and helpful. I managed to lock us out of the flat on our first Sunday and she rescued us in about 10 minutes!

  We took with us the usual assortment of 'just in case items' but we could have saved ourselves a lot of packing because the owner has thought of everything and some more besides: the Sweet Williams were a lovely touch as well.

  The flat is very well appointed, comfortable and in a great position to access the many amenities St Mawes has to offer on foot. Cornish fishing villages were not meant for motor vehicles so parking is always at a premium. Stones Throw does have parking so long as you have a smallish car. Actually parking is a test of skill, clutch and engine and no surprise that the route is not given in the description as it wouldn't be easy to do. For those with a bigger car or more faint hearted drivers there is a large public car park on the doorstep, currently £32 for a week. In conclusion we would highly recommend St Mawes and Stones Throw.

  The cottage was beautiful and so relaxing to be in.

  Being able to use the pool and spa facilities on the park site was a real plus as well. The beds were all comfy and having a separate ‘wing’ to the adult living room and bedroom was great! The only reason I didn’t give 5stars is because you can’t quite see the sea view from the garden and the garden isn’t enclosed enough to be able to let our naughty dog roam free as she runs away given any chance. But we had a long lead so it was fine! Lovely cream tea on arrival as well Thankyou!!

  A great little base for exploring the area.

  All mod cons. Reasonable-sized fridge, which helped with our on-line food order which we booked for the evening of our arrival (although delivery driver had to call to find us!). Very friendly and helpful owners. The twin (bunk bed) room was a bit small for 2 teenage boys, but they slept well enough. The only real concern we had was that we couldn't leave the window open in that room at nights because it seemed too easy for someone to lean in and open the door.
