Among the holiday cottages Cornwall can offer is this apartment within walking distance of the centre of Falmouth. Falmouth is the leading south Cornwall resort, and has the third largest natural harbour in the world. The setting is superb, with four main beaches; Gyllyngvase Beach - which overlooks Pendennis Castle, Maenporth Beach - ideal for families, Swanpool Beach - a relatively small stretch; and Trefuis Beach - close to Flushing and boasting good views of the town. Gardeners are spoilt for choice with a number of excellent gardens nearby. Trebah is a dramatic and beautiful, sub-tropical ravine garden running down to private beach on the Helford River. Glendurgan is a valley garden on the Helford River with exotic vegetation, camellias, magnolias, specimen trees and a laurel maze. Penjerrick is an uncommercialised garden with rhododendrons, camellias, magnolias, magnificent trees and bridge leading to a luxuriant wilder valley with ponds, bamboos and tree ferns all set in a peaceful atmosphere.
