Traditional hospitality in Falmouth

Enjoyed a very comfortable stay at the Falmouth Hotel (in Falmouth!). It's a large, traditional place, enjoying a simply spectacular location overlooking Falmouth's Gyllynvase Beach and the open sea beyond. Our bedroom was huge - high ceilings, grand proportions and original features all round - and the best bit was the amazing sea view. Downstairs there is a nice bar/lounge and restaurant, and a decent leisure centre Altogether a warm, welcoming, comfortable and relaxing place to stay. And great value - especially out of season, when rooms start from as little as £50 for a double including breakfast.
