Mussels, Falmouth

Cornwall. Sleeps up to 2

Mussels, at Helford Passage has been extensively remodelled, emerging as a beautifully stylish and contemporary apartment, fully equipped with all mod-cons, yet retaining a rustic charm. The property has sun-bleached wood-effect floors, in shades of grey and brown, comfortable seating and underfloor heating throughout. There’s a modern, well equipped kitchen, a soothing bedroom and contemporary shower room.

Helford Passage nestles on the banks of the beautiful river Helford, with a sandy beach and direct access to the South West Coastal Path. There’s plenty to do on site including hire of kayaks or paddle boards to get you out on the water, or there’s the heated outdoor swimming pool. The Ferryboat Inn specialises in seafood dishes and holds regular music and quiz nights. The local ferry can take you across to pretty Helford village where you can meander along the shore to explore Daphne Du Maurier’s Fisherman’s Creek. Alternatively relax and enjoy good food at the welcoming Shipwrights Arms in Helford or venture further afield to historic and bustling Falmouth, experience rugged Land’s End or the gentle gardens of Trebah and Glendurgan. All the traditional attractions of a Cornish Holiday such as nearby fishing trips, golf, cycling, horse-riding, seaside fish and chips, coastal walks, art galleries and stunning beaches make this a perfect base for couples or families all year round.
