A beautifully presented boutique guest house located moments from Falmouth's spectacular seafront and just a circa 10-minute walk to the bustling town centre. Our clients have invested substantially into this grand property, so much so that the Energy Performance Certificate rating is now a B. With off road parking for approximately 6 cars, substantial proportions and 10 bedrooms (8 ensuites), properties of this size, in this very desirable area, are few and far between. The business has an excellent reputation (5* rating on Trip Advisor and the second highest rated B&B in Falmouth) but would also make a fabulous family house, subject to achieving a change of use.
