Location
Where is it?
Just a few steps from Skyfall and your feet are instantly touching the soft sand of Gyllyngvase Beach. Located in the heart of Falmouth, Gylly beach is renowned for its gently curving shoreline and glassy clear water. The calm swell of the beach makes it the perfect spot for families to paddle and soak up the sunshine, and watersports such as stand-up paddle boarding and kayaking can also be enjoyed. This equipment can be hired on Gyllyngvase beach as well as on nearby Swanpool and Maenporth beach. Yachts can also be hired (skippered or bareboat) through Freewinds or Bowmans.
Upon a short stroll into Falmouth town, you will find streets lined with quirky independent shops and eateries serving fresh local food. The surrounding coastline can be explored on foot and leads to further unspoiled coves and turquoise sea. The luscious gardens and castle views at Pendennis Point are a short walk away, or hop on the ferry from Falmouth Harbour, which crosses the water to the beautifully quaint Roseland Peninsula.
Falmouth offers an adundance of events all year round, including Sea Shanty Week, Falmouth Food Festival and Falmouth Week. Find out more at Visit Falmouth.

Guest Reviews
"We had the most joyful week at Skyfall-the sun shone for most of the week which meant we had the most incredible sunrises every morning. The views from the main bedroom and living area are breathtaking. Everything was perfect."
"We are repeat customers of Beach Retreats and thought we would try somewhere new. Wow ! how fantastic Skyfall is.
A beautiful 5th floor Penthouse, with stunning views down to St Anthony Head, right above Gylly beach and easy access to the Coastal Path. Very well appointed accommodation with everything you could possibly need for a relaxing family holiday."
