The Idle Rocks sits on the edge of St Mawes harbour wall in the quaint fishing village of St Mawes, on the tip of the Roseland Peninsular, an area of outstanding natural beauty.
The view from the hotel is the Cornish dream brought to life: a small, idyllic harbour, narrow lanes of tidy fisherman's cottages, green fields that slope down to the sea and sandy beaches.
Aside from its enviable location the hotel is a magnet for discerning diners, attracted by its reputation for superb cuisine as well as those simply seeking to relax in its friendly ambience and comfortable accommodation.
The terrace is simply the best place around to sit and watch life on the water of this bustling harbour in summer. In winter, the theatre of water on display (compliments of Mother Nature), provides a natural symphony of entertainment - best enjoyed from the comfort of the hotel lounge, bar and restaurant.
The Idle Rocks has 27 comfortably appointed bedrooms in a choice of categories and most of them offer wonderful sea views. 23 are located in the main building and 4 Premier rooms are located in a restored fisherman's cottage adjacent to the hotel.
The hotel, holder of 2 AA Rosettes for over 12 years, offers exquisite dining in its Water's Edge restaurant. A spacious lounge and bar offer plenty of space for relaxing at any time of the day.
