St Mawes is a village opposite Falmouth, on the Roseland Peninsula on the south coast of Cornwall, England, United Kingdom. It lies on the east bank of 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, often claimed to be the third largest in the world. It was once a busy fishing port, but the trade declined during the 20th century and it now serves as a popular tourist location, with many properties in the town functioning as holiday accommodation. The town is in the civil parish of St Just in Roseland.
A year-round ferry provides a service to Falmouth, which is less than a mile away by boat, but due to its proximity to the Fal estuary it is some 30 miles (48 km) away by road. The Place Ferry links the South West Coast Path and operates from Good Friday to the end of October.
St Mawes was once an important town and was made a borough in 1563, returning two members to parliament. It was disfranchised in 1832. St Mawes Castle is a well-preserved coastal fortress from the time of Henry VIII, built to counter the invasion threat from the Continent. Charles Henderson, writing in 1925, says of St Mawes, an ancient fishing town which in late years has assumed the different and more sophisticated character of a watering place. The seal of St Mawes was Az. a bend lozengy Or between a tower in the sinister chief Arg. and a ship with three masts the sail furled in the dexter base of the second, with the legend Commune Sigillum Burgi de St. Mawes al Mauditt.
St Mawes lies within the Cornwall Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). Almost a third of Cornwall has AONB designation, with the same status and protection as a National Park. As well as this St Mawes is considered to be home to one of the oldest small Cornish bakeries in the county of Cornwall. The St Mawes bakery is estimated to have been founded in 1912 by the Curtis family (the current owners) making it 100 years old in 2012. Although the bakeries premises is probably much older (going back to the 1800s).

Friends & family, rather than checking in individually over the next several weeks, I plan to try and post a few highlights along my journey. I will post on my new blog when the mood strikes or like today I have a quiet morning.
Most of you know my wish to actually check-out for awhile as I step forward on a new path. So far my travel companion, my inner child, has a beautiful adventurous imagination and has taken us on a magical ride off the beaten path a time or two already. I can't wait to see what she has planned for today. Best wishes to you all and that you have abundant smiles & laughter in your day.
Love to you all
Trevessa, Upper Castle Road, St Mawes, Cornwall.
Available on the open market for the first time since built 42 years ago!
Some of the best and most sought after locations in St Mawes are found on the western side of the village, where Trevessa enjoys a superb elevated yet private position. This reverse level detached house is set in its own beautifully stocked and manageable surrounding gardens, which combine stunning panoramic views with the benefit of an easy sloping private pedestrian access on to Lower Castle Road. Therefore Tavern Beach and central village amenities are a short distance away.
The property has been in the ownership of our clients’ family ever since it was built after purchasing the approximately half an acre plot of their choice in 1968. Our client’s parents named the property Trevessa. In Cornish, ‘tre’ means home or homestead of and ‘vessa’ means lowest on the hill. Therefore the property is aptly named the lowest house on the hill. By only viewing can one fully appreciate the closeness to the water yet be surprised as to the privacy and tranquillity created within its surroundings.
