This property is probably the best we have ever stayed at. Expensive but worth the extra for the location. For the first time we rebooked for next year before we left!

Thank you so much for your lovely review. We're delighted that you enjoyed everything about Top Sails so much that you've booked again for next year! We're so glad that you didn't find parking an issue. Unfortunately, St Mawes car park doesn't facilitate advanced parking but, with over 250 spaces in the long stay and a smaller short stay carpark by the quay there is always a good chance that you'll find a space.

This was our second stay at this property and we were not disappointed. The property is in beautiful location, spotlessly clean, well equipped with good local amenities. We will hopefully rebook in the future.

Top Sails is a beautiful property, well designed, extremely comfortable with the most amazing wrap around views from the main bedroom and sitting room. Truly stunning. We had a lovely relaxing week. The outside staircase is also well designed, non slip, well lit and with double hand rails - all very helpful when getting luggage up to the apartment....

Fantastic find. It would be hard to better the sea views whilst relaxing in the lounge. We will be back!
