Perched on the top of the hill Portscatho, The Standard Inn is a cosy, quintessential pub to sip on a pint and watch the world go by. The food is also utterly scrumptious: with changing weekly menus, you’re sure to find something that tickles your fancy. 

A luxurious country retreat just a few metres from the beach, The Nare Hotel's location couldn't be more picturesque. Swim in the outdoor pool with views across the bay or discover Cornwall from one of the hotel boats. When dinner time rolls around you don't have to venture far for a fine dining feast. 

The Idle Rocks at St Mawes isn't just set within a jaw-droppingly gorgeous location, nor is it just an exceptional restaurant serving up mouth-watering dishes headed by chef Matt Haggath. It is also a place to unwind, relax, and call home for your Cornwall adventure. With only 19 rooms, this spot is small, though big on comfort. 

On the Roseland Peninsula, St Mawes is the kind of fishing village to bring your camera to – pastel cottages, bobbing boats, and fresh sea air. Overlooking it all, St Mawes Castle sits tall and pretty on the headland, one of Henry VIII’s best-preserved coastal forts. You can walk the ramparts, watch for dolphins, then drop down into the village for crab sandwiches and a pint as the ferry comes in.
