Stones Throw

3rd visit and already planning my 4th.

Ideally situated nr the pub, shops and sea front, felt like coming home!

This was our second visit to this property which is in a prime location to explore the surrounding area.

We will be back again next year

The cottage was quite shabby.

Kitchen and bedroom with bunk beds are very dark all of the time, making the flat feel claustrophobic. There is a flat directly above and you van hear people suing the toilet and having a shower. The view outside is of a very busy car park! The mattress on the bed was badly stained. There are so many places with wonderful views of the harbour as alternatives. Its a shame I cant post photos to show what is like. Would not recommend.

Very convenient and quiet position.

Parking outside the property. Plenty of eating places all within a few minutes walking distance. Close to the harbour and ferry to Falmouth. Bus to Truro opposite. The surrounding countryside is beautiful, ideal for walking.

We had a lovely stay at Stones Throw.

Great location and well equipped flat. Would definitely recommend a stay there.

Fab location, clean and welcoming and perfect for my first solo holiday age 51!

! only comments would be I couldn't locate the black bin so left the rubbish bag on doorstep when I left on Fri and salt and pepper in the kitchen would be useful!!! All in all 10/10 and will definitely be back :)

Stones Throw was very clean and well equipped.

Fine for a couple or a family with two small children. Not much storage so we used the second bedroom to hang our clothes. The back of the flat gets no direct sunlight so the kitchen and second bedroom are dark. There is also a noticeable musty, damp smell when you enter. We used the allocated parking for our Honda Jazz without problem. There is a large, busy car park immediately in front of the flat so there is very little privacy. There is no area to sit outside. Stones Throw is very convenient for the shops, restaurants and pubs in St Mawes. Also great access to the bus and ferries. The owner, Paula is friendly and helpful. I managed to lock us out of the flat on our first Sunday and she rescued us in about 10 minutes!

Great property, great location, second visit here.

Will no doubt be back again.

Lovely apartment in a perfect location.

Very close to main car park - £35 for 7 days and you can come and go as you wish. Apartment very clean and containing everything we could possibly need for a comfortable stay. We had a fantastic week. Thank you

The owners/property managers have gone to a great deal of trouble to have everything just so.

Almost everything that anyone would need is there. The flat is comfortable, and very close to the sea, with the ferries to Falmouth, and also the shops. the Tourist Information Centre is opposite 'Stones Throw' on the other side of the car park which is nearby. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay there. (My 4th)

Our second stay at Stone's Throw was fantastic.

A great cottage in a superb location. Very clean and well appointed. We hope to return for a third visit next year.

Everything was perfect apart from the damp in the property - we were lucky we had good weather but had this not been the case it would have been very uncomfortable.

None of our towels dried overnight which would normally be the case in the height of summer and you could feel the damp in the air, we were grateful we had a heater we could turn on in the evenings. Great location, cleanliness etc but damp not good,

Outstanding location, not bettered in St Mawes.

Fabulously appointed, super WiFi/TV reception.

It's an excellent property, a ground floor apartment.

Well set out, Clean, tidy, plenty of information for visitors, not only in respect of where things can be located within the apartment, but also facilities in the local area. It has bedrooms, and would be suitable for families.

We had the loveliest stay at Stones Throw in February.

The house had everything we needed, was a minutes walk away from the seafront and pubs/shops. We will 100% be staying again when we come back next February.

The holiday property; a 2-Bed S/c flat was warm and inviting from the first moment I entered it.

There was a 'Holiday Users Guide' on the table in the sitting room, and other information regarding facilities in the area were placed on a coffee table. I'd already booked for a further stay in 'Stones Throw' before I arrived for my recent holiday there. An act of fatih? Maybe, but I was very pleased that I had done so. Whilst there I actually booked a further week's stay at the end of June. This underscores how much I enjoyed staying there.

Stones Throw had everything you need for a week away and many unexpected extras were provided, I would book again and recommend it to anyone.

St Mawes is beautiful with a fantastic beach and great swimming, and the pubs and restaurants are fabulous.

We took with us the usual assortment of 'just in case items' but we could have saved ourselves a lot of packing because the owner has thought of everything and some more besides: the Sweet Williams were a lovely touch as well.

The flat is very well appointed, comfortable and in a great position to access the many amenities St Mawes has to offer on foot. Cornish fishing villages were not meant for motor vehicles so parking is always at a premium. Stones Throw does have parking so long as you have a smallish car. Actually parking is a test of skill, clutch and engine and no surprise that the route is not given in the description as it wouldn't be easy to do. For those with a bigger car or more faint hearted drivers there is a large public car park on the doorstep, currently £32 for a week. In conclusion we would highly recommend St Mawes and Stones Throw.

The small bedroom was damp.

Other than that cottage was very nice

Lovely and clean on arrival.

Really comfortable to relax in and only seconds from the centre of st mawes. All essentials in place when we decided to eat in and cook for ourselves.

The apartment had absolutely everything that you needed to ensure that your stay was relaxing and comforting.

Having two children under three the lounge space was perfect for them both the play in the early mornings. The location is fairly peaceful, just hearing the odd bus, which we didnt mind as it was exceptionally close to the beach, village front and pubs, which meant little legs could walk it happily. Defintely a gem of a find and will be booking to go back.

Excellent holiday apartment, clean, bright and fully equipped, they have thought of everything.

We struggled a bit with the night storage heaters (instructions would have been helpful) but supplementary heating was available. Private parking is at a premium in St Mawes so it was great that this apartment had a private space right outside, albeit small and awkward - a Chelsea tractor wouldn't stand a chance. Having said that the Council car park is adjacent and charges not unreasonable (think it was £30 per week). The apartment is very central, once parked there is no need for a car as everything is within strolling distance. The bus to Truro starts from the Council car park. We recommend taking the bus to St Just where there is a beautiful church and gardens (and tea shop) and walking the coastal path back. Perefct. Lamorran Gardens are well worth a visit too.

Lovely, well equipped apartment.

Second bedroom is quite small. Parking space, although mentioned, isn’t easy to find. Better directions to that would be helpful. Our car was ok but may be too small for a larger car. Lovely position in the heart of St Mawes, easy access to shops, pubs and the beach. Would definitely look to rebook.

Parking quite difficult so did cost £30 for the week in adjoining car park.

The apartment was extremely clean.

The facilities excellent and the thoughtfulness I.e. tea, coffee, biscuits etc. Plus fresh flowers in each room was very much appreciated.

Stones Throw was the perfect holiday home for our visit to the beautiful St.

Mawes. I would recommend this home to a couple or young family without hesitation. The access for more elderly infirm people would be challenging and the parking is tricky when all the spaces are occupied, otherwise fab place

Our second stay at Stones Throw.

Ideal for a couple or small family. Very clean and well equipped for a self catering holiday. Location at St Mawes is great with a 2 minute walk to harbour for shops,bakery, pubs and restaurants. St Mawes is a beautiful place to stay and the Roseland area is great for walking with lovely beaches. Great service from Sykes Cottages with plenty of communication. A lovely holiday!

Great accomodation.

Comfortable and clean. The only confusion is I thought I booked directly through Sykes cottages, but received confirmation of the booking via booking.com. They said if I had any enquiries then send an email to the link, which I did, but no response. I called Sykes in the end as didn't know how to access the property. The staff member was very helpful, however I just think it needs to be clearer on the website who you are booking with.

Apartment well equipped.

Overlooks car park so can be noisy at times. Pedestrians can see into apartment windows. Generally good value for money. Very clean.

Amazing place.

Fantastic location.

House could have had its street number listed.

It was a bit hard to find tucked around the corner of the street. That said, a wonderful cottage.. Enjoyed St Mawes and the cottage immensely.

A great little base for exploring the area.

All mod cons. Reasonable-sized fridge, which helped with our on-line food order which we booked for the evening of our arrival (although delivery driver had to call to find us!). Very friendly and helpful owners. The twin (bunk bed) room was a bit small for 2 teenage boys, but they slept well enough. The only real concern we had was that we couldn't leave the window open in that room at nights because it seemed too easy for someone to lean in and open the door.

The apartment was perfect!

Clean and well equipped, there was even a new bottle of milk and some biscuits to make us feel at home! We really liked the location- fantastic for the south coast and its beaches, St Mawes is lovely and has everything you need for a holiday.

Lovely, well equipped apartment, had everything.

Situated in gorgeous town. lack of storage think could of been bit of a problem if 4 was in apartment and it is a shame they have storage heaters. We were lucky having lovely weather. Would go to Cottage againbeing able to park outside apartment was great.
