Faultless Stay

Simply a perfect stay! From check-in to check-out, nothing was too much trouble. The hotel is spotlessly clean, breakfast superb (well worth £5, that's for sure!) and make sure you try the homemade jam. Given availability, I don't think there's anywhere else I'd stay in Falmouth from now on - can't recommend it enough. Many thanks, and hope to see you again soon

Hospitality winners at Falmouth Bay

Everything was excellent and hosts were the best. However, we missed a place to sit outside, if only a small bench. Living room and common area was nice though, but the possibility to enjoy the summer evenings «at home» was limited.

Very friendly hosts, good advice on local dining, my departure had to be before their normal breakfast start time but they still looked after me very well. Highly recommended.
