Highcliffe

Falmouth

Set in Falmouth and only 500 metres from Falmouth - Gyllyngvase, Highcliffe offers accommodation with sea views, free WiFi and free private parking. This recently renovated guest house is located 37 km from St Michael's Mount and 39 km from Lizard Lighthouse & Heritage Centre. The accommodation features a housekeeping service and private check-in and check-out for guests. We stayed in Falmouth for two nights as part of a little road trip through Cornwall. Highcliffe was the perfect place to stay! Its elevated location over the town offered gorgeous views of the harbor, yet it was only a short walk to restaurants and shopping. The rooms and bathrooms were well appointed and stylish, as were the lounge spaces downstairs. The restaurant in town is also excellent, we had both breakfast and dinner there, as the location right on the harbour is unbeatable. Very few lodgings in Falmouth offer parking, so this was another plus for us. They also offer an easy self check in process, which is helpful if you plan to arrive in the evening. We would definitely stay at Highcliffe again and will recommend it to friends visiting Cornwall.
