About this property
Primrose Cottage is in the heart of Penryn, quietly tucked away off the high street, yet only a two minute stroll from the pubs and shops, a charming terraced cottage over two levels. Step through the stable doors in to the entrance hall with flagstone floor and follow through to the living room with cosy wood-burning stove. The open-plan kitchen-dining room is separate. At this level there is the family bathroom and a separate WC. Head up the stairs to two double bedrooms. The enclosed courtyard garden has bistro table and chairs. A characterful and stylish cottage, close to Penryn harbour (water taxi) and within easy reach of Falmouth's town and beaches.
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.

The only thing I would suggest is to replace both mattresses. They are very dipped and quite uncomfortable.

It has all the amenities you would need, although if you are disabled I would not recommend it, just as older buildings were not built with these things in mind. The car parking space is about 50m away from the house which is really nice to have as finding a parking space otherwise would be difficult. Penryns is a short bus ride away from Falmouth & is a great place to stay in Cornwall. It has everything you need within a short distance away shops, restaurants. The fish & chip shop is really good. It would be nice to have checkout maybe be an hour later - at around 10. Except for that, we really enjoyed our stay at this really unique cottage & would definitely visit again. Thank you for the gifts in the fridge, they were greatly appreciated
