    “Good location for walking into town, scones were a nice touch.”

    Difficult to unload as parking up outside is near impossible, we had to park at the end of the street and carry our luggage up steps to cottage, parking is provided but a couple of streets away. It was quite noisy 2 out of the 3 nights we stayed with talking and music from houses around the back into the early hours. My main gripe was the dog poop that was left in the back garden that I had to pick, that to me is not acceptable!

Set just a few minutes walk from the bustling town of Falmouth, this pretty period cottage is delightfully tucked away in a residential street above the harbour.

The cottage offers a superb blend of character with exposed stone walls and painted wooden floors alongside contemporary flair.

The sitting room is bright a welcoming, with slate floors and a wood burner stove - a comfy spot to relax with a book or enjoy one of the many games provided.

The smart kitchen is a lovely space to gather and socialise with glazed doors leading out to the neat courtyard garden.

Here you'll find a neat table and chairs where you can enjoy a glass of fizz or canape in the sunshine.

On the first floor are two comfy double bedrooms, one with sea glimpses and a bunk room ideal for children.

They share a family bathroom and there's a further shower room on the ground floor.

Tops'l Cottage is an excellent base from which to explore the golden beaches, quirky fishing villages, hidden creeks and footpaths through woodland and along the coastline.

Falmouth offers a host of attractions for every occasion.Explore the harbour or take a boat to St Mawes or to the cathedral city of Truro.

Castle, Gyllyngvase and Swanpool Beach are all nearby and perfect for a swim, surf or kayak, or get busy with a net and bucket and explore the rock pools.

Visit historic Pendennis Castle, once home to Henry VIII or enjoy a ramble along the picturesque coastal path to Helford Passage.

The sub-tropical gardens of Trebah and Glendurgan are waiting to be explored.

The Helford River with secret river inlets and the Lizard Peninsula, with scenic coves set against dramatic granite cliffs are within easy reach by car; Kynance Cove is breathtaking and will not disappoint.

With so much to see and do nearby, Tops'l Cottage is an ideal holiday cottage in a superb location.
