A great Falmouth location.

The apartment was ideal for our 6-day stay. It had a commanding view over the bay and the greenery around the place added a Mediterranean feel to the area. Our hosts, Josie and Mike, were very welcoming and we had everything we needed to make for very enjoyable stay, even enough firewood and kindling to be able to enjoy the open fire on more than one evening.

Easter Eggscellent Location

We stayed at this location for 6 wonderful nights. As we stayed over Easter is was a lovely gesture to find some small chocolate eggs and decorations around the fireplace to reflect the occasion. It had everything we needed as a great base to explore this part of the country. Having the games room was a nice addition especially when it rained. The history attached to the property make it a little special as well.
