Beautiful and well equipped home with stunning views. So accessible to town and a big plus was off road parking! We loved our stay which made our daughters graduation that much more special! Thank you Louise for making our trip such a memorable one.

The best night’s sleep I’ve had in ages!!
We had a brilliant stay at ‘The Captain’s House’. Louise was a lovely and very accommodating host. The house was very tastefully decorated and the beds were extremely comfy! The best night’s sleep I’ve had in ages!! Everything was very clean. Great location for the town.

Beautiful House
Great communication, a beautiful house with stunning views, and just a 5-minute walk into Falmouth. It’s only a 10-minute drive to Sainsbury’s for provisions. Private parking was a real bonus. Our party of six adults, a 1-year-old, a 5-year-old, and our dog all had plenty of room.
