"My parents and I thoroughly enjoyed staying at this pretty cottage on the grounds of the lovely estate. The cottage is well-equipped, nicely designed, and very comfortable. It is well located for the port towns and cliff tops of the Lizard Peninsula. I recommend a visit to the stunning Minack Theatre - an outdoor theatre built into the cliffs with views across the ocean, as well as the nearby town of Helston. Thank you, Charles!"

The Falmouth Hotel

The Falmouth Hotel

8/10 Good
"We had a wonderful stay at The Falmouth Hotel. The building is beautiful, with a grand historic interior, and the lounge overlooking the sea was one of our favourite places to relax. The location is excellent, directly across from Castle Beach, within walking distance of Gyllyngvase Beach, and only a short stroll into town. We also enjoyed the indoor pool, and it would be fantastic to see the former outdoor pool restored one day. Every meal we had—from breakfast to afternoon tea, sandwiches, and fish and chips—was excellent, and the staff were consistently professional and welcoming. Our room was clean, and the free on-site parking was a significant bonus, although it did fill up during busier periods. A couple of things are worth keeping in mind: the hotel hosts weddings/receptions, and the reception during our stay continued until around midnight, which affected our sleep. We also visited during warm weather, and because the hotel does not have air conditioning, our west-facing room became quite hot despite the fan provided. Even with those minor drawbacks, the atmosphere was lovely, and the hotel felt more like a seaside resort than simply a place to sleep. It was the best out of several hotels that we stayed at during our trip. We would definitely stay here again."
