Local departure by coach or Home Connect service to Falmouth for a four-night stay. From the moment you check in, you'll discover why the Royal Duchy is the finest luxury hotel in Falmouth – the views across the bay are simply stunning!
Falmouth has been shaped by the sea and therefore has a fascinating maritime history. The town is within easy walking distance of the hotel and is perfect for exploring. We’ll enjoy an included visit to the remarkable National Maritime Museum which allows you to immerse yourself in the history of Cornwall's past, including exhibitions and magnificent views of the main harbour. With the rest of the day free to explore at your own pace, why not browse the bustling shops or indulge in a cream tea in one of the plentiful tea rooms? When you return to the hotel, relax and soak up the views from the terrace lounge.
After breakfast, we visit the gem of Cornwall, St. Ives, with its famous beaches and pretty cobbled streets that lead to the picture-postcard harbour – it is little wonder why this seaside town is one of the most visited in the region.
We also call at the ancient market town of Penzance, famous for its pirates – or at the least the singing variety! Penzance is also known for its historic port and the fantastic Wharfside Shopping Centre, which is home to both well-known brands and local specialists.
Today we visit Truro – a haven for food lovers! With plenty of time to explore at your own pace, be sure to enjoy a traditional Cornish pasty or cream tea in one of the many cafés, or why not start your Christmas shopping in the plentiful array of independent and high street shops? The magnificent Truro Cathedral is also worth a visit.
