The Westcott Bed & Breakfast
Falmouth, Cornwall

Situated halfway up Gyllyngvase Hill and approximately 100 meters from the award-winning Gyllyngvase Beach with its Blue Flag status, this friendly, family-run hotel offers elegant bed and breakfast accommodation. Start the day with a generous breakfast of cereals, fruit or a cooked breakfast, before relaxing in the dining room or the guest lounge to watch the boats sail through the stunning Falmouth Bay. You can also enjoy superb views or glimpses of the sea from many of the guest rooms. The hotel is an ideal base for exploring Falmouth, boasting a position only 10 to 15 minutes walk from the town center and the maritime museum, and close to the docks. It is also the perfect starting point for visits to the many gardens and sights of Cornwall.

Falmouth is the third largest natural harbour in the world, guarded by the impressive castles of St. Mawes and Pendennis. Strategically placed for various cruises – Round Britain, Trans-Atlantic and European positioning, 3/4 day cruises from Southampton or Dover – the port would also be an asset to themed cruises – gardens, golf, maritime history, National Trust and country houses. Spectacular sub-tropical gardens sweep down to secluded beaches on the Helford Estuary. Giant tree ferns and palms mingle with rare trees and exotic shrubs in ever changing colours. A wild and magical playground for all ages.
