Beautiful fishing village
This spectacular small fishing village nestling at the end of the Roseland peninsula is a lovely place to visit. It can be reached via the foot-passenger ferry which leaves from the centre of Falmouth, or you can drive to St. Mawes using the King Harry Ferry at Feock.
St Mawes is a Mecca for the boating and yachting fraternity and boasts three boatyards with numerous moorings and anchorages for visiting yachtsman in and around the Roseland Peninsula. It’s also a haven for the gastro enthusiast, with restaurants and pubs serving up superb fish and more traditional dishes all year round.
St. Mawes Castle, owned by English Heritage, is positioned on the western point of the village. It was built in 1538 by Henry VIII after a confrontation with Spanish and French warships in Falmouth Bay.
