The Lookout

Great location and very comfortable

Excellent location, five minutes walk to Maritime Museum and local restaurants, and on to town centre. Very comfortable and well-appointed, with nice welcoming touches (fresh flowers, pint of milk in fridge, packet of shortbread etc). Convenient parking, only a few steps (and a lift) to the front door. Pleasant bathroom, with an outside window. Electric shower, which is just as well as the hot water system could be better (very slow flow). Comfortable bedroom (I only used the double bedroom), though a bit short of space - no room for a chair. Whole property in well maintained and very clean condition. Highly recommended.

Our second visit and an enjoyable stay

Although the weather was changeable we had a good stay. The location was excellent and my little one Jake enjoyed the boats. The flat is on the doorstep of the Maritime museum and various eateries so a good location. It is also a very short walk to the Falmouth docks train station for a day out on the train to Truro.

Good place to stay

We have stayed here before because of its quality and location. Our hostess was very helpful in dealing with our early arrival and need to park before accessing the apartment, and in expediting repair of the washing machine. We think it could benefit from updating the TV and hob for the money, and a professional cleaning contractor would reach the parts that are easily missed! It was fine, and we had a good holiday in spite of the weather and COVID, and would happily return. We were locked in for half an hour because the gates to the village jammed one day and consequently missed our boat and booking to St. MichaelA?s Mount and had to abort that having pre-paid, but that is down to the Pendennis Marina Village who need to review that system. It could prove dangerous if emergency vehicle access is required.

Sandra replied:
I am glad you enjoyed your stay again at The Lookout! It was lovely to see you back. The TV there is quite useful with built in DVD although I appreciate it is not top of the range. We are certainly aware of the hob thank you and we will give it some consideration. I am sorry about the entrance gate. The monitored entrance is certainly a big advantage of the property and I have never known it fail before. I am sure the management will have this under control.

Excellent apartment in a superb location

The apartment was amazing. Perfect location and quite well kitted out. Only suggestion would be tub chair is unsteady and the TV is outdated. Suggestion is that a smart TV is used to replace so that visitors can connect to their own suppliers ie Netflix/prime etc. We love the location of the apartment and the gated entrance.

Sandra replied:
Thank you for your comments. I am so glad you had a lovely stay. We have noted your comment about the TV. The tub chair has been repaired. Best wishes

Absolutely fantastic!

The Lookout was just fantastic! Situated in a beautiful gated community which is impeccably kept. The apartment has easy lift access to the 1st floor. The apartment itself was just magnificent - very clean, very comfortable and beautifully furnished. The owner was also a pleasure to deal with and very helpful. Would highly recommend and would definitely return!

Sandra replied:
Thankyou for your comments. We are so glad you had a lovely time.

Very attractive and comfortable apartment

Lovely apartment that feels like home from home. ItA?s in a great setting in the marina complex and very close to all the shops and restaurants.

Sandra replied:
I am very pleased you are comfortable in The Lookout

Great apartment

excellent accommodation in great location for restaurants shops and trains . Extra touches from owner- flowers and biscuits. Recommend for couple with children but not really for 2 adult couples as only wardrobe in one bedroom.

Pendennis Gem

The Lookout in Pendennis is in an excellent location to explore Falmouth and the rest of SW Cornwall. It is a clean, well maintained ,spacious apartment that should meet the needs of anyone wishing stay there

Sandra replied:
Thank you very much for your review I am glad you enjoyed The Lookout and had a lovely time in Cornwall during this difficult time. Best wishes

Our week in Cornwall.

We returned to the Lookout as we enjoyed it so much last year. It is ideally situated for visiting Falmouth. Gated property, which is in a quiet location only 200 yards from many restaurants including Rick Steins. Rail station 300 yards, ideal for visiting Truro and if you want, St. Ives, saves having the bother of fighting through traffic and expensive car parks. The Lookout is the ideal place to stay. Ian.

Our Stay At The Lookout

We really enjoyed staying in this comfortable flat & the very attractive marina complex was a bonus. Great location.

Perfect holiday base in Falmouth

It was everything we expected. Comfortable, spacious and very well located. It was also quiet and spotless

Excellent holiday

Great weeks holiday, apartments was excellent as was location, would recommend to family and friends,

A great place to stay in Falmouth

The apartment is very centrally located, just 5 mins walk to the Town centre. ItA?s in a gated community, which is very well maintained. The apartment is in very good condition and everything needed is provided. ItA?s a very comfortable place and well maintained. Highly recommend. My only small grouse is that having travelled a reasonable distance to get there, that having to wait until 4pm to gain access is a bit late. Most places these days you can gain access between 2 to 3pm.

Highly recommended

Lovely property, well equipped from cafetiA?re to cooking foil, soap and spare batteries, and in a handy location.

Fabulous apartment in a great location

Fabulous apartment, great for families. Well equipped Great views and location. Very clean and well presented.

Everything is thought of here

Fabulous location,will be returning soon Highly recommended,stayed here last year,the accommodation is so well thought out. Beautiful throughout,

Our stay at the Lookout

We found the Lookout to be an excellent location for a stay in Falmouth and the surrounding area. A very well equipped and comfortable apartment

Ian & Pat Jones. Our holiday in Cornwall staying at the Lookout.

Hi, Pat & I had a lovely stay in Cornwall. The Lookout was all we could ask for in a holiday rental. We had obviously checked it out on the internet and were delighted when we actually arrived there. Everything was perfect as far as we were concerned. The view from our bedroom was lovely looking over the marina. We were lucky with the weather and loved Falmouth. We will probably return.

Sandra replied:
Thank you for your review. We are glad you had a lovely time

A week at the Lookout

Good location and parking. Close to town centre and restaurants. Well equipped property. Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

You will wish you stayed longer

Excellent position close to everything, Sea, Beach, Town, etc. yet comfortable, warm and secure flat. Everything you need is available. It is so good that you will wish you had booked for a longer stay, you will.

Great stay at the Look Out

We enjoyed our one week stay in this apartment which is walking distance to Falmouth but still in a very quite area. Apartment is very clean and comfortable plus we were welcomed with flowers, tea coffee biscuits etc. Such a nice place to return to after a day of adventure! will be back again!

Remember, remember

4 days in November, no gunpowder or treason but a plot to cherish in Port Pendennis; of course it rained a couple of times, it got darker early but 'The Lookout' is superbly situated, supremely comfortable and very well equipped. We loved it!!

Highly recommended

This property is in an excellent location,beautifully decorated,and very well equipped throughout. Very thoughtful touches if arriving late. Milk,water,tea etc all there for you.Parking right outside also a garage. Will be back next year,thank you for a great stay.

Falmouth Stay At The Lookout

If you are looking for an excellent spot to explore the south west of Cornwall, you could not choose a better location than the Lookout in Falmouth. Firstly the location; a private gated development,right on the sea front, just two minutes from Rick Steins and less than 5 minutes to the centre of the town. The apartment was excellent, very spacious, clean and welcoming,everything you could want for a relaxed start. We received full instructions on how to get there,and into the apartment. Little things that make a difference like fresh milk in the fridge as well as tea and coffee aplenty added to the overall feeling that you were being well cared for without anyone being obtrusive. With so many excellent places to see all within an hours drive this location and holiday apartment are first class. Just a quick browse through the visitors book said it all lots of people coming back again and again. We will certainly be joining them.

A lovely apartment in an ideal location.

Had a lovely week here in a property which was ideal for the two of us and in a fantastic location. Everything worked as it should and the only negative was the tiny television (hopefully larger by the next time we stay). For good measure the weather provided a heatwave!

A home from home

The Lookout is perfectly located and was a great base to have to explore Falmouth and Cornwall in general. In a gated complex, the car parking space just outside the block is ideal. The apartment itself is spacious and comfortable and the kitchen is very well equipped for self catering. I will definitely be returning and certainly can recommend staying here. It's been a home away from home, with a very helpful and generous host.

Nice place to stay in Falmouth

This property is well located near restaurants and tourist attractions. The apartment was in excellent condition.

A great place to stay.

Great place to stay. Brilliant location, easy walk to Maritime Museum, Pendennis Castle , town and the lovely beach and Gylly cafe, where the food is brilliant! The Lookout is a fantastic place to stay and the welcoming personal touches e.g. fresh flowers, milk in fridge , tray laid with cups teapot etc and shortbread were lovely.

Fabulous Falmouth apartment

My mother and I have just returned from a 5 night stay in The Lookout apartment in Falmouth. Very spacious kitchen, dining and living room, tastefully decorated, very clean and well equipped for self catering, comfortable beds, power shower, large bathroom. Loved it. Fabulous location in gated community with 5 min walk to harbour, shops, restaurants. 2 min drive to beaches, castle and main road out of town to explore fabulous Cornwall coast, river waterways and inland sites eg. Bodmin moor ancient standing stones. Would highly recommend.

I am so glad you enjoyed your time in Cornwall

Homely apartment in excellent location

This cosy apartment is ideally placed within walking distance of Falmouth town centre. It has everything included you could wish for including car parking.

Excellent in every way

I have already given my review and was very satisfied with all the accommodation and value for money

A Little Gem

This was the 2nd time for us staying at the Lookout, and needless to say we were so impressed that we came back ! This time we invited friends from Dorset to share our experience and they absolutely loved it. The location was perfect for the shops, bars and excellent restaurants and we had some fantastic meals . The apartment itself was very spacious and comfortable with all the facilities you could wish for, including fresh ground coffee ! We certainly needed the heating during our stay as it was during storm Angus so fun was had by all :) The only criticism would be that the tv was on the small size for such a big room. Other than that, perfect. This apartment is a little gem in a perfect spot and we will definitely be back next year.

location location location

Fantastic location walking into town and to town beaches. Comfortable with large white fluffy towels. Two tvs. Big kitchen and sitting areas. Easy to get into gated village with parking . No need to have a car if yoi are just wanting to stay in falmouth. Use ferries buses and train...

Nice but needs a bit of TLC

Great location and the milk/water/flowers were nice touches. The apartment is comfortable but perhaps needing a bit of TLC with special attention to the plumbing which needs updating. Having said that would not be unhappy to stay there again.

All very good

We stayed for three nights with my elderly Mother, so location (flat walking into town) was excellent for us. Flat was clean and well equipped. Thank you Bob and Sarah Holloway

Fantastic Location

A brilliantly located apartment, easy walk into Falmouth and close to some lovely beaches. The owners have added some wonderful personal touches to make a stay at The Lookout incredibly convenient.

The Lookout

This is our fourth visit to the Port Pendennis compex and our first stay at the Lookout. The accommodation was generally very good and catered well for our children (age 2 and 5). It is also in an excellent position for the local beach and shops/restaurants.

Fantastic week!

We loved our stay at The Lookout. Its in a fantastic location in lovely Falmouth and is really well equipped with everything you could possibly need! We definitely plan to go back next summer.

Great spot in Falmouth

A great position , near both town and beach . Great to have a garage , lovely walks nearby . My only one negative is the key to apartment door also fits the main security door which I assume everyone in the block has a key to , felt I needed to carry money and valuables with me all the time .

Sandra Campbell replied:
The keys are special security keys which open the front door of the apartment block but are individual to each flat and therefore do not open any other apartment.

A well located property

The property is well located with excellent views of the marina . It was clean and well equipped with little touches that contributed to an excellent rating . The television has a small screen and is a little out of date but functioned OK.

Five Stars for The Lookout!

The Lookout exceeded our expectations, even better than it looked on line. Lovely welcoming touches, daffodils, Easter biscuits, milk in fridge, tea, coffee. Plenty of toilet rolls, always an advantage!! Nice toiletries and Wonderful white fluffy towels provided. Every base covered, even bottled water and glasses in bedrooms. Parking immediately outside with lift access to apartment. Lovely sunny aspect with view on to the Marina. Everything very comfortable with great dining table and chairs. Easy flat access to Falmouth town with many varied restaurants, wonderful fish and chips and of course Cornish pasties! Altogether a great week at The Lookout, we'd give it Five Stars!

The Lookout with Everything

Having stayed In Port Pendennis before, we more or less know what to expect with regards to the position and views. However, from the moment we booked with Cornwall Cottages, we knew this was going to be a treat. The service was excellent and we were contacted prior to our check in by the Owners, introducing themselves and giving full check in procedures. When we arrived at The Lookout, the apartment was pristine clean and with every gadget you could wish for to make your stay home from home. A welcome tray of shortbread biscuits and milk and fresh flowers made us feel wanted. All the facilities were first class, although the shower was a little on the "slow" side with the water pressure but nothing, not even the gale force winds and torrential rain for the whole 3 days of our stay, could put a dampener on the weekend. We really felt rested having stayed there even though we were out and about every day in the rain as the position was absolutely perfect. We will certainly being staying there again and will recommend both Cornwall Cottages and The Lookout to anyone wanting somewhere to stay which is most certainly like a home. Well done for the care taken by the Owners and we look forward to coming back.

Great central location

Lovely clean spacious apartment with views to the harbour, Everything provided that we needed for a weeks stay with our 2 children. Great location with lovely restaurants and maritime museum within walking distance. Use of the tennis courts (racquet and balls in apartment - great idea!) Would definately stay here again

cornwalls cottages, the lookout falmouth

The lookout apartment was very clean and pleasant in a very nice location,with excellent access to falmouth town centre .The apartment is in the pendennis marina village which is very private and secure with gated access,the whole experience of booking with cornwalls cottages and dealing with the owners was very simple and pleasant, highly recommend.

Lovely apartment

The look out is a lovely apartment,very clean, spacious and well equipped, and in a great location. The owner was very helpful and pleasant. Our only real complaint is that the TV was far too small, and it would be good if there were lamps on both sides of both beds. We also felt that it needed more seating to be comfortable if there was four of you. We were only two so we were fine. We would definitely recommend this apartment .

Great Flat in a Great Location

The flat is ideally located & secure with a gated entrance. Access to Falmouth & the surrounding area is easy from here. The arrival instructions were clear & easy to follow & the flat is of a very high standard with everything you could possibly need provided. The view of the marina to the front really shows off the location & I would highly recommend a stay at the lookout.

Fantastic flat

A lovely flat. We were well cared for with lots of provisions left for our children. Thank you. Also lovely and clean and great location. Also use of garage for pushchair.

Lookout for the Lookout

A very well laid out and spacious apartment that had a good view of the marina. Ideally situated and only a few minutes walk from the town, we would certainly consider staying there again. In many ways a home from home however there were few basic things that need addressing: 1.Not all the doors close 2.With the limited hanging clothes space, hooks are required in the front bedroom and the bathroom, stick-on hooks just don't work and fall off all the time. 3.The shower pressure is weak and the temperature control poor, in fact the shower is very old and needs replacing altogether. Don't be put off by my last comments as I'm sure these points will be addressed

An excellent week at the lookout

We are regular visitors to Falmouth and love the Port Pendennis complex. The lookout was a nice location and fitted out to high standards. Some minor items were noted but the owners have promised to look into. A great weeks holiday.

Great location

The location of this property was ideal for us. Easy walking distance to the museum, eateries and shops. Possible to walk to the beach but we didn't do this as we had too much to carry! Spacious accommodation and very comfortable. A little more info about the other exit to the complex (which saved a more lengthy walk )would be useful as we only found it by chance and others may not.

Stay at the lookout during Falmouth week 2014

A very enjoyable week helped by the excellent location of the property. We enjoyed watching the ships, taking boat trips, fishing and made use of the tennis court on a number of occasions. The property was generally very well kept with good facilities. Only minor issues with the flushing of the toilet (difficult but possible), and the regulation of the shower temperature.

Beautiful view at The Lookout

Stunning view over the marina, gorgeous development and convenient for local amenities. Apartment was huge, much bigger than expected, pristine and comfortable. Attention to detail by the owners was very thoughtful - coffee, milk and shortbread provided and a selection of books and magazines to read. Everything had been thought of and I would absolutely recommend. Good kitchen facilities too.

Pendennis Marina

A lovely appartment in a well positioned area and protected with security gates overlooking the Marina, within walking distance to Falmouth town where there are many places to eat and drink, not to mention the local attractions. We had a very enjoyable stay and would recommend to family and friends.
