A peaceful detached house on the outskirts of Falmouth, this is a well-kept base for exploring one of Cornwall's most rewarding coastlines. The enclosed rear garden is the kind you'll actually use – fire pit, barbecue, and festoon lights making it easy to linger outside long after dinner. Inside, the second bedroom looks out towards Falmouth Harbour, while a dedicated desk in the third room makes it a practical choice for anyone mixing work with a break. Gyllyngvase, Swanpool, and Maenporth beaches are all a seven-minute drive away, as is Falmouth town centre.
