We love the peace and quiet of the location, whilst also being close to Falmouth and the Roseland. Fabulous walks from the cottage, and our dog enjoys relaxing afterwards in the enclosed garden, too. Everything inside is spotlessly clean and comfortable. This was our 5th stay at Whim Cottage and we will be back. ...

Had a very enjoyable stay at Whim Cottage. The cottage has been beautifully converted by the owners and provides everything you need for your holiday. Good walks direct from the cottage take you into the village of Mylor or down to Weir beach, Restronguet Creek and the Pandora Inn, which has lovely views up the creek. A good base to explore the south coast of Cornwall....

The Maritime Railway is a great holiday asset, and makes a trip to Falmouth very attractive. The fish shop in Mylor is good, and of course the Pandora Inn with great food and surroundings is a must. I could go on….

We have stayed at this cottage a number of times. The location is ideal, so close to the river yet only a short drive from the shops. Two very good pubs within a mile. The cottage itself has a lovely open living space. The bedrooms are very spacious and well decorated. I can’t wait to go back again. ...
