Guests say
Pegasus in Falmouth is a well-regarded duplex apartment with stunning sea views, praised for its cleanliness, comfort, and prime location close to town and beaches. Guests appreciate the dedicated parking and well-equipped kitchen, though some maintenance issues were noted.
Most guests found Pegasus to be spotlessly clean and well-maintained, contributing to a comfortable stay. However, one review mentioned a less thorough cleaning after a previous guest with a dog, slightly affecting the overall impression.
The location is highly praised for its proximity to the town, shops, restaurants, and beaches, as well as its wonderful sea views, making it an ideal base for exploring Falmouth.
Guests generally found the apartment very comfortable, with cosy beds and a homely atmosphere. However, some guests mentioned issues with low ceilings and difficulties using the toilet in the top bedroom, which impacted the comfort level for taller individuals.
Facilities are overall good, with a well-equipped kitchen and comfortable lounges. Some guests experienced maintenance issues such as a non-functioning TV, problematic washing machine, and difficult-to-operate bifold doors, indicating room for improvement.
While guests have had positive experiences, there is no mention of gifts or special touches that would indicate a level of thoughtfulness. Therefore, this category cannot be scored.

Falmouth is home to a natural deep harbour on the Fal estuary, it has three beaches: the largest, Gyllyngvase, is just 10mins down the road, castle beach directly opposite and Swanpool, another popular beach for families with a café. It is just a 10-minute walk into town and Falmouth has so much to offer: cobbled streets, small independent shops, cafés, pubs and restaurants, markets and many events during the year. Wander around looking for gifts, stop for refreshment in the square and people watch. Why not visit The Maritime Museum, head to the 16th-century Pendennis Castle, walk along the rugged coast paths or visit one of the beautiful gardens at Trebah, Glendurgan or Enys Gardens? The beauty of Falmouth is all year, a brisk stroll along the coast path is great for blowing away the cobwebs. If you want to venture further then the city of Truro is 12 miles away, with cobbled streets, variety of shops, cafés, bars, and restaurants to suit every culture or St Ives, a major arts centre.
At the beach there is SUP and canoe hire as well as scuba diving including instruction - why not explore the submarine wrecks just off the coastline? You can hire e-bikes from a stand nearby.
There is so much to do here, from visiting the cathedral to bowling or cinema, and the hotel has a restaurant and bar should you wish to stay in for the evening. Our four-legged friends are allowed on most beaches; check the schedule on each beach. Many restaurants and shops will also welcome them too!

Lovely apartment with a great view, comfortable beds, many extras, lovely walks along the front and a short walk to town. would definitely recommend.I would recommend a small rug by sofa for pets to sit on.

Amazing views and central location. Brilliant location, very clean and lots of lovely little touches. Lots of space and done to a very high standard. The views are amazing anc so central to everything. My only isue was arriving in the dark after a 6 hour journey it was difficult to find the carpark and the key. But a really helpful receptionist at the hotel saved the day.

Decided to use Falmouth as our base for our week in Cornwall and so glad we booked Pegasus. The duplex apartment was spotlessly clean, very comfortable and had everything we needed. It has a dedicated parking space and great views out to sea from the lounges and balconies. It is a short walk into town where there are plenty of shops, bars and restaurants. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it.
