The Captain's House is the perfect setting for a family holiday in Falmouth. A 5* beautifully restored Georgian Sea Captain's house, with a modern classic interior - showing an elegant blend of 18th century character with modern functionality. This stunning cottage is ideally located on the outskirts of Falmouth's town centre with shops, restaurants, galleries and boutiques. Short stays in June price on application contact host
Traveling with enough adventure is my prime interest . I Still require a really good facilities ,however remote or challenging a trip, hospitality with care and a bit unique are more important than ratings .This is what we strive to provide in our Holiday house in Falmouth. Always amazing bed linen and great furnishings to really relax into. I have worked in Fine Art Conservation and Property Restoration for quite a while , I'm lucky to work & have projects that I find interesting . The Captains' House In Falmouth is the latest restoration of an historical property that I have completed . We are fully available if help is required, but we leave you alone to enjoy your holiday and enjoy the setting of the house.
Possibly the most desirable Terrace in Falmouth. The house is placed in the most historic area of town , a conservation area of outstanding natural beauty. Over-looking the harbour, marina, the Roseland Peninsula and the ocean beyond. A remarkably peaceful terrace in a very central location, just a 5 minute walk into the town centre and harbour. Once the car is parked in the large parking space everything can be done on foot. The Royal Cornwall Yacht club is directly below the house. Falmouth's attractions are within walking distance from the house. Just a five minute drive to the nearest beaches. Ferry hop around the Fal estuary to all neighbouring creekside villages and further, a stunning way to travel and really absorb the local area. Two main-line train stations connect at Truro for services to London. Fly to/from Newquay airport for London or Scilly Isles (and selected British airports) Local buses and taxis are reasonably priced.
