Tresanton is a cluster of houses on the edge of St Mawes, one of the prettiest fishing villages in Cornwall. Originally created as a yachtsmen’s club, in 1997 Olga Polizzi bought Tresanton and spent two years completely redesigning and restoring it. All rooms have stunning views across the sea towards St Anthony’s lighthouse. In addition to 31 rooms the hotel has a restaurant, bar, sitting room, cinema, playroom, children’s garden and a private yacht. www.tresanton.com
