Region: Cornwall’s visitors are constantly tempted back to the beautiful coastline, tiny fishing villages, hidden coves and the world-class surfing. Whatever the reason, Cornwall has long cemented its place as one of Britain’s premier holiday destinations.

Town: Falmouth, with its magnificent natural harbour (the third largest in the world), winding streets and beaches, will keep you occupied for hours. The town's old harbour-side pubs, excellent shopping, art gallery and stunning National Maritime Museum simply complete the picture. Pendennis Castle, built by Henry VIII, is Falmouth's most popular attraction, sited on its own peninsula with superb panoramic sea views. Across from Falmouth harbour is the beautiful town of St Mawes, surrounded by the rocky coves, sandy beaches and lush green countryside of the Roseland Peninsula. Go there by car (15 miles) or take the passenger ferry from Falmouth (15 minutes). For nature lovers there is the Swanpool Nature Reserve, a lagoon and site of special scientific interest teeming with a variety of wildlife. Falmouth offers such a rich variety of landscape and attractions for people of all ages, it is sure to tempt you back time and again.

Fabulous cottage w/great location
We booked the cottage for a weekend stay to visit our daughter who is studying at Falmouth University. Perfect house with great location right above the high street. Excellent pub just around the corner and fantastic garden area for us to eat out. Recommended highly to everyone visiting Falmouth either during the summer or winter. The host thoughtfully left scone and refreshments for us which added a caring touch to what was already a great experience.

Tiny, and sweet, but mean for the money
This is a sweet house. It is ‘compact’ and 6 adults would test its limits! Seriously, though, 500 for two January nights is flipping expensive. So we were expecting a few nice touches. Hmmm - 2 teabags left with 3 scones, jam & cream as a welcome - the house is for 6 remember. No tea/coffee at all. No sugar and absolutely no basic oil etc. 4 logs does not constitute a load. So whilst I would say our stay was fine, I definitely won’t book again.

We enjoyed our stay. This is minor but ee were a little confused with the trash instructions as there were several different ones. We asked in an email and through the cottage site but never received any communication. We are considering renting it again for the Sea Shanty time.
