The Royal Duchy Hotel

Wake up to sweeping bay views and salty sea breeze at this fairytale retreat, set on the Falmouth waterfront. Overlooking the historic Pendennis Castle – one of Henry VIII’s coastal fortresses – this boutique hideaway offers quintessential Cornish charm in spades. Just minutes from the heart of Falmouth’s quaint, cobbled streets and bustling harbour, this is the perfect base for exploring Cornwall’s stunning coastline.

With only 45 beautifully appointed rooms, you can savour quiet moments of ‘me time’ in the indoor heated pool, cedar sauna and hot ceramic beds. Food lovers are in for a treat at the hotel’s award-winning restaurant, holder of two AA rosettes. Expect traditional British cuisine elevated with contemporary flair, where each dish is crafted to order using the finest local ingredients.
