How to reach us
Please note, we would recommend when using satellite navigation systems, that you ensure you have selected to ‘avoid ferries’ as this will direct you via road and is usually the most direct route. On arrival into the village, via the A3078, turn right onto Upper Castle Road, following signs for the castle; this will bring you into the village from the west. The Elysium St Mawes Hotel is located opposite the harbour, on the left hand side. Upon arrival please pull up outside the hotel, where our team will assist you with your luggage. We will then direct you to public car parking which is located just around the corner.
There are regular train services from London and the Midlands to Truro Station via Great Western Railways. We can arrange transportation for you and your guests from the station to the hotel – please let us know if this is something we can organise for you.
The nearest airport is Cornwall Newquay Airport, and there are regular flights from London, Manchester ,Dublin, Birmingham, Edinburgh, Berlin, Stuttgart as well as many other locations.
