The Situation
This delightful modern apartment is centrally located, nestled high up in the peaks of the prestigious Packet Quays development in Falmouth, with the principle living areas and both bedrooms overlooking the harbour and offering visitors spectacular and ever-changing views of the water.

Until you visit this property it really is difficult to explain how breathtaking and jaw dropping the views are from the 39ft long balcony. Internally the well-planned accommodation comfortably suits four persons and, with two bathrooms, makes an ideal property for two couples or a family. This is the perfect base for those wanting to relax in a waterside location, yet with all the wonderful restaurants, facilities and amenities that the bustling port of Falmouth town has to offer just on the doorstep.

The stunning location

Falmouth is well served by leisure facilities such as two cinemas, one mainstream and the other, part of The Poly arts centre, showing lots of interesting world cinema and arthouse films. There are many permanent art exhibitions and interesting galleries showcasing the wonderful raw talent of the south west. A visit to Falmouth would not be complete without a trip to the National Maritime Museum Cornwall on Discovery Quay. Adjacent to the museum is the popular Events Square which features many different festivals throughout the year, as well as hosting various shops, restaurants and cafes with outside eating areas.

The Ships and Castles Leisure Centre, with fun pool, log flume and gym and The Ocean Bowl are great venues for when the weather is not so conducive to outside activities.

Falmouth has three beaches, the Blue Flag, sandy beach of Gyllyngvase is just a short drive or a twenty minute walk away. Gylly Beach Cafe, it's wonderful food and decking area are very popular and for good reason too. (www.gyllybeach.com)

From the Prince of Wales Pier, (just at the bottom of the high street), you can make a lovely day out by taking a passenger ferry to St Mawes, Truro or Flushing. There are also other boating opportunties from here such as partaking in a fantastic Orca Sea Safari, river trips up the Fal or over to the Helford, or perhaps you prefer to try your hand at a little fishing.

Truro is a twenty minute drive, The Eden Project thirty-five, St. Ives and the North Coast forty. Falmouth has good transport links with three local branchline train stations, the nearest being Penmere Platform. From the Moor you can catch buses to all over Cornwall, as well as there being a National Express coach stop.

Guests Comments

"Fantastic apartment - mega views! Very clean and modern. Loved all the furniture. Hope to use you again - thanks."

"The best holiday let that we have stayed in over the past number of years. Nothing has compared with Cross Trees in terms of accommodation, situation or cost. A gem in the West Country and one which perhaps sets a standard in holiday properties. Very well done to you all at Cornish Holiday Cottages."
