    “Lovely well equipped house for 4 of us a short stroll from the lovely swan-pool beach in a lovely quiet area.”

    We used it as a base to explore Falmouth and surrounding areas. It’s approx 35 mins walk to the centre of Falmouth along the coast path. Beds are comfy, kitchen well equipped for self catering. The only thing I would change is the supply of a washing airer to dry washing. Thanks we will be back again.

The property

Tucked away in the South Coast of Cornwall is Dragonflies & Seahorses, resting in the seaside town of Falmouth.

This beautiful, detached home sleeps up to six guests and is the ideal getaway destination for a family or friend group in Cornwall.

You are welcomed to the property by a driveway accompanied by a stunning front garden blooming with pastel-coloured flowers.

Step through the turquoise door and enter into the refreshing interior where you will find a long hallway; ideal for keeping those sandy shoes safe until your next visit to the beach.

To the right, you will discover the snug sitting room, where you can look forward to getting out the popcorn and cuddling up with loved ones in front of the Smart TV.

Moving through the property, locate the well-equipped kitchen/diner, where you can gather around the dining table and enjoy a tasty meal together.

Once the sun has set, head upstairs and retire to the stunning master bedroom, where the coastal setting of the cottage is reflected in the pretty décor.

Across the landing you will find the twin bedroom and the bunk-bed room, both with ample storage along with a peaceful atmosphere so the young ones can drift into a blissful nights sleep.

The first-floor is complete with a family bathroom with a charming, wooden-paneled bath fit for a luxurious soak, or instead take a shower to rinse off your sandy feet.

Outdoor table and chairs offer an alternative dining arrangement - make sure to take advantage of the barbecue and enjoy your meal in the pretty rear garden whilst the sun is shining.

For a hearty carvery, take a short stroll to the local pub, Boslowick Inn, or head to the beachfront restaurant Hooked On The Rocks to taste some exquisite seafood.

You will find all your essentials at the nearby convenience store, the perfect place to stock up on local produce.

Dragonflies & Seahorses is just a stone's throw away from the sandy cove of Swanpool beach, which boasts a shingle bar, crazy golf course, and the option to hire a kayak.

Falmouth is also home to the National Maritime Museum, which exhibits local artifacts and a variety of boats; a great place to take children for a fun and educational day out.

Your family will be delighted with the nearby village, Penryn, which also has a popular museum, indoor soft play, a donkey sanctuary, and numerous bars and cafes for dining out.

Take a drive to the historical city of Truro, which hosts a world-famous cathedral, quirky cafes, and open green spaces.

Truro is also a fantastic place for retail therapy.

For an exquisite holiday to Cornwall that you'll never forget, bring your family to Dragonflies & Seahorses and enjoy an enchanting trip to the South Coast of England.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £100.

About the location

FALMOUTH

Penryn 2 miles; Mabe 3 miles; Truro 11 miles.

Falmouth, with its magnificent natural harbour (the third largest in the world), winding streets and beaches, will keep you occupied for hours. The town's old harbour-side pubs, excellent shopping, art gallery and stunning National Maritime Museum simply complete the picture. Pendennis Castle, built by Henry VIII, is Falmouth's most popular attraction, sited on its own peninsula with superb panoramic sea views. Across from Falmouth harbour is the beautiful town of St Mawes, surrounded by the rocky coves, sandy beaches and lush green countryside of the Roseland Peninsula. Go there by car (15 miles) or take the passenger ferry from Falmouth (15 minutes). For nature lovers there is the Swanpool Nature Reserve, a lagoon and site of special scientific interest teeming with a variety of wildlife. There is also a golf course. Falmouth offers such a rich variety of landscape and attractions for people of all ages, it is sure to tempt you back time and again.

Note: The gas fire cannot be used for the foreseeable future due to a bird family nesting in the chimney.
