The Victory has two very well appointed rooms,
with double beds and en-suite bathrooms, and contain all the usual facilities.
The victory is situated right in the middle of the village making staying
there very convenient for exploring the area. Car parking is available

fill up very quickly in the Summer months and booking is strongly recommended.
RESTAURANT
As well as serving food downstairs in the
bar area, the Victory also has a more formal restaurant upstairs that
connects to a recently completed outside terrace with excellent views
across the St Mawes bay. The restaurant takes advantage of the local fishermen
and offer fresh fish dishes that change almost daily, from whole sole
and bass fillets to whole lobster!
The restaurant is also available for private functions
and parties.
Booking is advisable during the summer season.
LOCATION
St. Mawes, is a pretty harbourside village
that looks out over the River Fal towards the busy maritime town of Falmouth.
The dramatic Cornish coastline around St. Mawes was used as the setting
for the popular television series Poldark.
This is very much a sea faring community, with boats and
yachts continually setting anchor in the calm waters just beyond the main
harbour. St. Mawes' sheltered location creates a a safe anchorage with
easy access to the coast, the Fal and the Carrick Roads - (a large waterway
created after the Ice age from an ancient valley which flooded as the
melt waters caused the sea level to rise dramatically -creating an immense
natural harbour, the world's third largest, which is navigable from Falmouth
to Truro).
St. Mawes is an ideal spot for a family holiday. The village
has two very good beaches,on either side of the harbour, both beaches
are excellent for swimming and benefit from a southerly aspect - making
them ideal for sunbathing.
