Location

The charming fortress of St Mawes Castle stands the other side of the Fal estuary to Pendennis Castle. Falmouth is only a short boat ride, or for the more adventurous, a paddle board away. Take to the South West Coastal parth or enjoy a cruise up the river if a day on the beach isn't for you.
