Alive with creativity, Falmouth has a year-round vibrancy that makes it the ideal destination for a Cornish seaside holiday. This pretty harbourside town and port is steeped in maritime history and sits at the mouth of the River Fal on the south coast of Cornwall. It’s a wonderful place to explore from our holiday cottages in Falmouth.
Step out from your cottage onto one of Falmouth’s three sandy beaches. Spend time on Blue Flag Gyllyngvase Beach (or Gylly Beach) or explore the rock pools and sandy coves of Castle Beach. At Swanpool Beach, enjoy watersports, great swimming waters, and a brilliant beachside restaurant. Or head out to Maenporth for peaceful dips, coastal walks, and great restaurants.
A burgeoning reputation for food and drink makes Falmouth a must-visit destination for foodies. Renowned restaurants offer delights stretching from local seafood to international fare. Naturally, there’s more than one spot for that good old-fashioned holiday Fish and Chips. You’re beside the sea, after all.
Get inspired whilst wandering the cobbled high street, lined with art galleries, independent shops, and cosy cafes. With a creative heart and an enviable calendar of events, this is the place for culture in Cornwall. From The Falmouth Oyster Festival on Discovery Quay to the International Sea Shanty Festival each June.
Explore Cornwall’s coast further by hopping on a boat to St Mawes and the Roseland Peninsula, popping into bustling Penryn, or enjoying the sights and sounds of the Helford River by boat or on foot.
