Gylly

The ultimate coastal retreat set moments from the sparkling sea and pristine sands of Gyllyngvase beach. Let the gentle morning call of seabirds rouse you before dawn, in time for almost ethereal dips or sunrise yoga on the beach. Discover new underwater worlds in Castle Beach’s well-known rock pools and end the day with a sundowner picnic at Pendennis Point. Thoroughly revitalised, return to your bolthole to wash off salty skin using the al fresco patio shower. 

Just a ten-minute stroll from Falmouth town – you may not end up cooking much, as there are a plethora of great restaurants, cafes, and bakers. 

Arriving at Gylly, as you pass through the sun-trap front garden and through the front door, the house opens up into a generous continuum of lovely rooms.

Decorated in subtle colours and organic features, with beautiful original details, some standout vintage pieces and many collected books and local artworks, Gylly’s living spaces are sophisticated, welcoming, and charming.

Awash with daylight from their wall-length windows, focal rooms such as the fabulous kitchen/diner and luminous main bedroom, invite guests to spread out and relax into easy living, in an environment designed with intention. The attic room with its skylights and sea views that reach out to the horizon, make an idyllic base for those cosy nights in.

The contemporary kitchen/diner comes complete with all of the amenities required for a substantial self-catering stay and expands luxuriously to leave space for a large dining table and adjacent sofa. Throw open the french doors to let the outside in and bring your home-cooked lunch out onto the patio for a feast in the sunshine. 

This self-catering beach house serves up equal measures of style and comfort, while its Falmouth beach location is the icing on the cake.
