About Ship and Castle Hotel

Set beside the harbour, in an enviable position, the Ship and Castle Hotel is full of the charming atmosphere of nautical St Mawes and is an ideal base for a leisurely holiday. From this peaceful spot, with its winding streets and ancient Tudor castle, a short ferry trip (weather permitting!) is a lovely way to reach Falmouth and its range of interests. Delightful country and cliff-top walks are on hand, or you may prefer to take to the road and escape to a deserted beach, try your luck at sea angling, or cruise up pretty creeks and rivers. Whatever you choose to do, the Ship and Castle is one of the best equipped hotels in St Mawes for you to simply sit back and relax, and is a perfect complement to all that Cornwall has to offer.

As with many St Mawes hotels, The Ship & Castle Hotel St Mawes does not have a car park. A public car park is located nearby. (Parking charges apply).

Christmas

Having just returned from a very good Christmas at this hotel. The staff were friendly, nothing too much trouble, the hotels is having a refit in February 2011, it was ok at the moment, will have to go back to see the improvements. I cannot praise the staff enough, the food was really good, so much choice and well cooked, the entertainment in the evening was good, only complaint is that I would have liked duvets on bed instead of blankets, saying that I was plenty warm, also the cleaners were great

Thank You

We had a wonderful family weekend break at the end of May 2011. The Balcony room was wonderful with views across the water. John Pierre made the weekend more special as he went out of his way to make my husband’s special birthday quite memorable. Food excellent as usual, the upgraded dining room was lovely and clean and the cafe downstairs very chic. Definitely will go back again at a later date. A special thanks to all the staff from reception to our room cleaners

Fabulous Service

Exceeded our expectations, having stayed in a number of Shearings Hotels, this was by far the best yet. Excellent service. The professional manner in which every aspect of the restaurant was managed by Jean Pierre made all the difference. In fact all the staff were extremely pleasant and customer-focused at all times. Standard of food was a delightful. We're planning on coming back. A big thank you to all!

Wonderful Time

Have had a wonderful time over the new year but you should look at the shower in room 210 you can be having a shower and the water becomes boiling hot did tell the staff twice with no response. PS -  the price of a can of Guinness is far too high at £3.65 also is warm.
