THE LOCATION

Penmere Drive is set within the four-acre woodland grounds of Penmere Manor Hotel, originally known as Penmere House and built by one of the captains of the Cornish Packet Ships. Penmere House was converted into a hotel in the late 1950s and has remained family-owned and operated ever since. This is a highly regarded residential location in Falmouth, sought after by those "in the know," offering ultimate convenience to all the town has to offer. It’s an excellent family-friendly area, with schools, convenience stores, and the hospital all within close proximity, while Falmouth town center is just a mile away (a 30-minute walk), and Swanpool Beach is similarly accessible. Public transport options are plentiful, with multiple bus stops nearby, and Penmere train station, a short walk away, offers direct links to Truro and London Paddington. Falmouth itself boasts a wide range of bars, restaurants, and pubs to suit all tastes, along with a variety of shops, from boutiques to high-street retailers. Known for its festivals and regattas, Falmouth also features sandy beaches, Henry VIII’s Pendennis Castle, and stunning walks along the South West Coast Path. The town is home to the third-largest natural harbour in the world and is renowned for its maritime facilities, providing some of the best boating and sailing opportunities in the country—no wonder it’s consistently ranked among the top five places to live in the UK.
