Falmouth, Cornwall -travel information and accommodation

Falmouth is built on a superb natural harbour. In tudor times the Fal River was a busy and important port, and Henry VIII had the magnificent Pendennis castle built. The castle, situated on the tip of the promontory with Falmouth now built behind, is Cornwalls largest fort and well worth a visit. 

As a base to explore this part of Cornwall, Falmouth has many advantages, the beaches are good all around this region, and the rugged cornish coast provides many surprises with magnificent sandy stretches as well as hidden coves.

Falmouths town centre is busy with craft shops and fish merchants as well as some lovely restaurants and pubs to eat at.

Ferries and pleasure trips abound with fishing and site seeing readily available.

Truro the Cathedral city lies to the north and has plenty of places to visit. Being on the main Penzance to London line helped the development of Truro and it became the major distribution centre for Cornish tin.

The Lizard to the South West of Falmouth, has many beaches, small towns and villages. The Peninsular is mainland Britains most southerly point.
