This convenient and highly sought after location on the seafront is within walking distance of the Princess Pavilion and its beautiful recently landscaped gardens, castle and Gyllyngvase beaches, hotel St Michaels with its spa facilities and walks along the coastline. Falmouth town itself offers a diverse range of independent and High Street shopping together with an effect range of restaurants, public houses and bars and at the far end of town the Events Square which plays host to a variety of festivals throughout the year, the National Maritime Museum and finally Pendennis castle and The Point.
