The Idle Rocks "Your Home from Home by the Sea" Perched perfectly on the rocks, in the heart of St Mawes, on the Roseland Peninsula, on the South Coast of Cornwall. Our 19 bedroom Relais & Châteaux hotel is your home away from home. Each of our bedrooms are individually designed to reflect the ultimate beauty in waterside comfort & luxury. With an award winning restaurant and unprecedented south facing views across the water, the environment is relaxed and the hospitality is genuine and engaging. St Mawes Hotel The location of the St Mawes hotel, in the centre of the village alongside the harbour, places it at the heart of the community. It’s where the locals, the fishermen, the sailors and visitors all gather throughout the day and long into the evening. Throughout the summer months the front doors are always wide open onto the street, inviting passers-by into the lively, informal bar and restaurant where our friendly team of staff wait to greet them. Food is served in the bar or the relaxed environment of the Upper Deck, with its casual seating and log burning stove for those cold winter evenings. The St Mawes hotel is a lively venue with a relaxed atmosphere.
