    Breakfast was great. I marked the location as average because there was always a hill to climb, but that's the nature of Cornish towns. The beach and restaurants were downhill but there's always taxis. We had very good meals at Mine and Bodega 18.

Company information

Falmouth Bay prides itself in being a welcoming and friendly guest house, providing you, the guest, with a comfortable and warm place to base yourself whilst visiting Falmouth and Cornwall.

Property information

At the Falmouth Bay, we have created a sense of simple luxury providing a modern, contemporary guest house, with 8 individual styled en-suite bedrooms, in the heart of Falmouth, with easy access to the Town itself and the rest of Cornwall, including the fantastic beaches of St Ives or the great shopping in Truro. The Falmouth Bay is a detached guest house enjoying sea views across Falmouth Bay, a sheltered stretch of water famed for its safe sailing. The Guest House is minutes walk from Swanpool beach and nature reserve, where you can surf, play golf and enjoy evening meals on the terrace of the ‘Hooked On The Rocks’ restaurant. Gyllyngvase beach is a short walk away, along with the Princess Pavilions which offers a wide variety of music and shows for most of the year and free nightly entertainment in the picturesque Biergarten during the summer months. Falmouth Bay guest house is ideally situated close to Falmouth Golf Club, which has stunning cliff top views across Falmouth Bay. The South West Coast Path attracts 1000’s of walkers every year, many of which choose Falmouth as a ideal location to spend a night or two before setting off for the next leg of their journey.

Neighbourhood information

We are a few minutes walk to the Falmouth University, Woodlane Campus and a great base for those visiting the Tremough site in Penryn. Falmouth is an ideal touring centre. The vast variety of the Cornish Coastline is all within easy reach – there are many coves, beaches, towns and villages for you to explore; or visit the many beautiful private or National Trust houses and gardens open to the public, including the Eden Project. Falmouth’s exceptionally mild climate makes a Spring or Autumn holiday most enjoyable. Falmouth offers two resorts in one: North East: The north east side of Falmouth offers a town full of history and picturesque narrow streets. It is also home to one of the world’s largest natural deep-water harbours where you can sail, fish and take many pleasure boat tours to the River Fal, St Mawes and the nearby Helford River, home of Daphne du Maurier. Falmouth Harbour is renowned for the Tall Ships Race and The National Maritime Museum. South Side: The south side is home to four lovely beaches to relax, swim or explore rock pools or, for the more energetic, diving and wind surfing. There are amazing walks through sub tropical gardens and to Pendennis Castle
