Arrival Day

A warm welcome awaits your arrival in St Mawes.

Check in to your luxurious room, and take in the sea air, while relaxing & refuelling from your journey, with homemade mince pies.

Join our other guests, for an afternoon glass of champagne & festive charcuterie, of course saving plenty of room for a 3-course dinner in the Reef Knot Restaurant that evening.

Dinner will be followed by a fascinating insight into our local Cornish Culture by local historian & researcher Barry West.

Christmas Eve

After a Cornish breakfast overlooking the wonderful Fal estuary, perhaps you’d like to join us for a festive stroll, around St Mawes & the surrounding lanes & byways, enjoying the Winter views & sea-scapes of the Roseland Peninsula.

During the afternoon, we’ll be screening the Christmas classic “It’s A Wonderful Life” in our luxurious Hidden Cinema, with plenty of popcorn & mulled wine!

Dining in the Reef Knot Restaurant, you will indulge in a 3-course festive dinner, prepared using local & seasonal Cornish ingredients.

To end the day, test your mettle in the infamous Idle Christmas quiz, before a good nights’ sleep, in preparation for the big day.

Christmas Day

Awake to find yourself in the most idyllic area of Cornwall. The Fal Estuary is the perfect backdrop to exchange gifts and start the day with a full Cornish breakfast accompanied by a Moet Mimosa.

You’ll need to save plenty of room for the traditional Cornish Christmas lunch served with all the trimmings, followed by The King’s Speech in the Hidden Cinema.

With no washing up to worry about, take the opportunity to enjoy a bracing walk along the picturesque harbour or perhaps a festive tipple in the lounge.

On Christmas Day evening, you’ll enjoy a festive buffet in the Reef Knot Restaurant.

Boxing Day

Boxing Day starts at a leisurely pace with brunch (Bloody Marys included!) then for the rest of the day, you are invited to immerse yourself in Cornish Culture:

After brunch, join an exclusive trip to St Mawes Castle, where you’ll learn about the history of this wonderfully preserved Tudor Fort.

A short sightseeing boat trip on the River Fal follows, with warming hot chocolate & nibbles.

Late afternoon includes a wine tasting, followed by our Boxing Day Festive Buffet, celebrating the best of Cornish produce. It’s a fitting finale to a wonderful and indulgent Cornish Christmas at The Idle Rocks.

Experience an authentic Cornish Christmas, where you’ll be enveloped in our warm hospitality, treated to delicious food & drinks, and find yourself enthralled by the breathtaking winter landscapes of St Mawes and The Roseland Peninsula.
