Falmouth is a great location if you are an outdoors person. With plenty of cycle routes all around the town and surrounding area you can enjoy exploring the bridleways and trail paths for hours on end.
If you’re more of a water lover, then why not take a boat trip out for a spot of fishing, explore the reef with a dive off the Gyllyngvase beach or simply have a picnic on the white sands and take in the view while the kids take out their body boards.
For history enthusiasts this town is home to Henry VIII’s impressive Pendennis and St.Mawes castles, while the Lifeboat and National Maritime Museum of Cornwall make for fascinating days out. For the perfect way to end the day, an evening stroll along the well maintained seafront promenade to soak in the atmosphere, marvel at the nature of the sea and feast on some of the country’s tastiest fresh fish and chips or hot Cornish pasties, is highly recommended.
Falmouth is also the ideal location to base yourself if you are planning to visit further afield in Cornwall too. The picturesque town of St. Austell is less than an hour up the coast with its nearby Eden Project, Land’s End is just over an hour westward, while the famous Lizard Point is only 45 minutes south making for some fabulous days out in all directions.
Most cheap b&b properties in town are family run and are within close distance of the beach. Some bed and breakfast offer spectacular sea views. A great breakfast to start the day is served each morning. Stay on a budget near the lovely sandy beaches of Castle Beach, Gyllyngvase Beach, Swanpool Beach or Maenporth Beach. Don’t forget check parking facilities when reserving your accommodation to allow for a stress-free arrival.
