About us

We have lived in St Mawes since 2009 are very involved village life. We are both members of the Sailing Club and regularly race our 24′ Keelboat on Thursday evenings and Sunday mornings throughout the summer.  We also sometimes manage to escape for a night away on our small Yacht “Herbie”.  Over the last 3 years I have managed to race in the Barmouth to Fort William 3 Peaks Yacht Race and won the event in 2023.
Amelia organises a community choir that sings on Monday evenings throughout the winter.  We are both members of an amateur dramatics group and have appeared together in a production.
We have taken on running the village carnival which runs for the first week of August.
We also organise the St Mawes Classic Car Festival always at the beginning of May and The UK Saltwater Fly Fishing Festival in September/October.
I also run a  walking holiday business organising walks around the South West Coast Path.

We are also keen gardeners and have lavished much love and attention on the garden at Nearwater.
