The view from the French windows takes in the wonderful seascape from Flushing across Falmouth harbour to the Roseland peninsula in the distance.

Falmouth is one of Cornwall's most popular places to visit because of it's unique mix of attractions, water sports, beaches, history and place to eat. The National Maritime Museum Cornwall and Pendennis Castle are both high on visitors lists of places to visit and the views from Pendennis on a fine day a truly magical. Falmouth is the sailing capital of Cornwall with its spectacular deep water natural harbour offering a haven for both cruisers and racers. Many events are held through the summer culminating in the famous Falmouth Regatta Week and associated shore side events. You can enjoy the fireworks from your very own balcony!
The beaches at Gyllingvase & Swanpool are coarse sand and are wonderfully sunny south facing spots. You can ride the ferry to beautiful St Mawes for the day or take a delightful trip around the estuary stopping off at either Trelissick Gardens or Smugglers Cottage for a cream tea! There are plenty of places to eat & drink in Falmouth and recently Rick Stein has opened his Fish & Chip Restaurant & Oyster Bar at Discovery Quay adding to the superb mix across the town.
Booking Swallows was very easy and straightforward and all information was relevant, easy to follow and very helpful. We had a lovely week's holiday and good weather was an added bonus. The apartment is lovely, very well appointed, in a great location with wonderful views and has many positive features.

I had a great time. I found your booking system very easy to use, I used the booking page online firstly, and spoke to your bookings lady on the phone during the week to extend my stay, both ways were incredibly easy and stress free. The cottage itself was lovely too, overall I would use you lot again!
