Area Falmouth, with its magnificent natural harbour (the third largest in the world), winding streets and beaches, will keep you occupied for hours. The town's old harbourside pubs, excellent shopping, art gallery and stunning National Maritime Museum simply complete the picture. Pendennis Castle, built by Henry VIII, is Falmouth's most popular attraction, sited on its own peninsula with superb panoramic sea views. Across from Falmouth harbour is the beautiful town of St Mawes, surrounded by the rocky coves, sandy beaches and lush green countryside of the Roseland Peninsula. Go there by car (15 miles) or take the passenger ferry from Falmouth (15 minutes).
Region Cornwall's visitors are constantly tempted back to the beautiful coastline, tiny fishing villages, hidden coves and the world-class surfing. Whatever the reason, Cornwall has long cemented its place as one of Britain's premier holiday destinations.

The apartment is ideally located for visiting Cornwall, just a few minutes walk down into the busy shopping centre, but also a relaxing view along the estuary.. With it’s allocated secure parking makes it less stressful and it’s a good location for touring Cornwall. The apartment is well equipped, clean and comfortable with a nice touch of a welcome pack and flowers to greet you on arrival. We have used this apartment on a number of occasions over the years and it is testament to the apartments quality that we will continue to use it in the future.

Ideally placed and comfortable apartment well sited to explore the town of Falmouth but also well positioned for a quick exit from the town to other parts of Cornwall.. An undercover retained carparking slot was a bonus.

The description of the location states 10 minute walk to shops, restaurants, cafes and beach.. The beach is not a 10 minute walk. It took us about 20-25 mins. The signpost at the end of the high street says 10 minutes from there!
The location of The Lookout is perfect for exploring Cornwall and being in the centre means we could leave the car behind when going out in the evening. Having off street parking was great too. The Lookout has everything you could need (including a hairdryer, but it's not listed so I packed mine). It was very much like being at home. There is plenty of living space and the knick knacks and pictures add to the seaside/holiday feeling. The kitchen and the living room do have a lovely views.
The downsides of this property are: the damp smell in the main bedroom - we could see it on the external wall, and the kitchen had an odd smell. The kitchen is well equipped and clean though, it is just is outdated compared to the rest of the rooms. In the bathroom, the grouting around the shower needs a good clean to brighten it up. We did enjoy our week as the positives outweigh the negatives.

The apartment is well placed for Falmouth high street and local attractions.. Car parking facilities are excellent. The apartment was very clean and every facility is provided. On a rainy day the apartment is cosy, when the sun comes out it's a good base for exploring.
