It was as nice as our memory of our first stay, when the sun shines there is only one place to be - on the terrace. Having said that it is very comfortable to be inside. It is a very friendly place to be to enjoy Cornwall.

Lovely rooms with great view. Bathrooms need updating, not the best configuration. Could do with a lighter bar menu.

Ideal Rocks. This place is a proper hidden gem. On the waterfront and with fantastic dining options it was the perfect place to spend a pre Christmas getaway and mooch around the classy little town of St Mawes, which always seems to be bustling without being overcrowded even at peak times of the year. The hotel makes the already superb location even better. The staff were very helpful and friendly and there is even an EV charger (albeit a fairly slow one). Rooms are cosy and individual with great facilities. We also took the ferry over to Falmouth (which runs almost every day) to have a wander around there. Essentially you can leave your car in the hotel carpark and explore the area on foot or using a bit of public transport/ferries. Cracking little place.

The Idle Rocks is a beautiful property in a great location. We arrived late, and our check in experience was exceptional. The staff at the front desk is lovely and very welcoming. We appreciated how short and sweet our check-in process was, especially after a 6 hour drive. There is a sweet young lady that welcomed us and showed us to our room as soon as we arrived. She also was kind enough to mail some postcards for us since we left on a Sunday. The night we arrived a man, who may be the overnight manager, offered us drinks before the bar closed. Him and the bartender were extremely attentive. A few downfalls that affected this rating were that housekeeping did not do a thorough job of cleaning. We ran out of toilet paper and they failed to refill it. I had to ask the front desk for some, and luckily the overnight manager delivered a whole pack of toilet paper. Additionally, our drinks from the first night were left in the room throughout our whole stay. We also found that the staff handling breakfast was rude. There was one waiter in particular, who never checked on us, gave us an attitude when we asked if we should seta ourselves since he failed to acknowledge us when we walked in. His demeanor was unwelcoming and made our breakfast experience very unpleasant. Luckily, Dean ended up waiting on us and was beyond exceptional. He really changed the experience and personally waited on us, although it is my impression that he may be the manager. Thank you dean!

We loved this property for its lovely rooms by the sea, wonderful breakfasts, and outdoor space overlooking the St Mawes harbour. It is centrally located with easy access to shops, restaurants and hiking and water activities. A real gem with friendly and helpful staff.k

Next to waters edge, you can hear the water lapping up against the harbour wall, very relaxing. The service from the staff was excellent.

Providing First class service in a relaxed and friendly environment is a difficult balance. The idle rocks pulls it off. At the risk of further popularising this gem, I couldn’t recommend it more highly.
