We were 5 adults & a 3 year old. We all appreciated the space, deceptive from the outside as the basement is now converted to the kitchen/living space. And 3 bathrooms so we each had our own, absolutely brilliant. It took a little while to get the hand of some of the technology in the house, you don't really want to be reading an oven manual on the first night but it was fine in the end. The outside space was great too, though the weather didn't co-operate to eat outside. We didn't have any problem parking one car in the allotted space, its not as narrow as you think & we managed to street park the other vehicle most times outside. We would love to come back & have no hesitation in recommending this property.

The property is very high spec, the kitchen and living areas are fabulous, and the bedrooms are light and roomy with very comfortable beds. The open plan layout on the ground floor was perfect and offered a great space for us all to be together as a family. It rained a lot during our week unfortunately, otherwise we would have made more use of the lovely outdoor space and bifold doors. On the other hand, we were so lucky to have a wonderful house to enjoy and escape the bad weather. The kitchen was extremely well-equipped and had everything we needed. We especially loved the American-style fridge freezer with crushed ice whenever we wanted! We were usually able to find a parking spot outside the house but there is private parking around the corner, although the approach to it is a little narrow. The location is good for accessing Falmouth town centre and the surrounding areas, with many nice bars, restaurants and shops all within walking distance. A wonderful house in a great location - we would love to visit again in better weather!

Spotlessly clean, cosy, comfortable, equipped with everything and more that you could need. 2 en-suites and a separate shower room was just perfect. Fabulous outdoor space too. The management company were also amazing and very responsive with the questions we had. We were a little worried about the stairs (as one person has some mobility issues), but still chose Sailors because everything else ticked all the boxes - thankfully it worked out fine. Parking on the street directly outside the house was normally possible, otherwise the dedicated parking space was great to have. Would be my first choice to book if we return to Cornwall again.
