Quiet location,was a 20 minute walk to village, very steep from flat to the top road. Not many shops in St mawes, very small cramped coop, good pasties from the deli on the square. Worth taking the ferry to Falmouth.

Short break in St Mawes

Everything was as we expected and we had a very enjoyable stay exploring the Roseland, Truro and Falmouth.

Good one bedroom flat to stay in, great location in a working boatyard. Would recommend it to stay at.

A week watching the boats go by...

Pelyn is a lovely little apartment- big enough for two, spotlessly clean, with an excellent kitchen. It's such a great spot to access St Mawes by foot and the view over the boatyard is really pretty. Early morning staring out over the water was a favourite pastime!

Convenient

Very convenient for walking in to St Mawes and the local footpaths. We enjoyed our stay and would try and book again but have noticed that the price has increased for 2025.

Thank you for your review, we are pleased you had a good stay and enjoyed the local area. Our prices are on a flexible rate so they change regularly, keep and eye out for the quieter weeks as the prices can drop, I hope that helps.

A great place to stay

Pelyn is an ideal place for a stay in St Mawes. It offers compact but well thought out accommodation for 2 people. Although the bedroom is small, the view from the window is worth it. The lounge area also has patio doors opening on to a small balcony and has the same outlook. . The apartment has all the necessary facilities and the allocated parking is a real bonus. It is located a ten minute walk from the centre of St Mawes which does involve some hills but is a pleasant walk, mostly off road.

A great place to stay

A return visit. The property is ideally located just a short walk from the centre of St Mawes. It comes with a parking place too which is a real bonus. It was very clean and has everything needed. The only slight negative is the poor shower.
