A turning staircase from the dining area takes you to an amazing sitting room on the first floor with pitched roof and exposed timbers and doors leading to a balcony which is a great place to enjoy views to Falmouth harbour, the docs and Penryn River whilst having your morning coffee or afternoon tea.

Falmouth town centre is where you will find an eclectic blend of independent and high street retail outlets, plus a great selection of restaurants from around the world, public houses, bars, the poly theatre and a phoenix multi screen cinema.
