The Roseland Peninsula has been designated part of Cornwall’s Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty for the quality of its landscape and unrivalled coastal scenery. Here you will find secluded coves, delightful creeks, wooded countryside, pretty fishing and rural villages, tranquil beaches and scenic cliffs and headlands.
The Roseland’s principal village in the area, St Mawes, is situated at the southern end of the peninsula. A picturesque harbour with whitewashed houses guarded by Henry VIII’s iconic Castle, St Mawes remains a centre for a wide range of watersports activities. Other villages in the area include the twin villages of Gerrans and Portscatho, Veryan with its famous roundhouses and Portloe with its tiny harbour.
You will find a range of accommodation in St Mawes and The Roseland. There are boutique hotels near the sea and guest accommodation with outstanding cuisine and friendly B&Bs. Comfortable farm house cottages and friendly campsites are ideal for relaxing family holidays.
A haven for walkers, wildlife lovers and watersports enthusiast, there is plenty to keep you active during your holiday on The Roseland. Or, if you prefer just to wind down - enjoy a relaxing day on the beach or a boat trip on the Fal estuary, and round it off with a cream tea in one of the excellent cafés, a pint in a character pub.
