What a great place! Everything you need is here, the welcome is warm, the rooms great, the whole place is spotlessly clean, the breakfasts tasty. We were in Falmouth for a family wedding and found this place having done some searching and review reading. The wedding reception was at the Pavillions which was just across the road, so it really... More

My choir was singing in Truro and the Minack over the bank holiday weekend, so my partner and I needed somewhere to stay. After a bit of research on here, I decided that so many good reviews don't lie and The Red House B&B was the place for us. From the moment of booking until we checked out this morning,... More

Here's a lump of gold. We were at The Red House for 7 days and were sorry to have to leave. Hosts Nick and Karen are simply the best. Nothing is too much trouble and the breakfasts with Karen's whisky marmalade on your toast after a real quality English has to be experiencd. The welcome is the warmest. The decor... More

Our family stayed at The Red House for one night and wished we could have stayed longer. Very rarely do you ever come across a B&B where you walk in and immediately feel completely at home and at ease with the hosts but you do here! Karen, Nick and Nicole made us feel so welcome - we felt like friends... More

I have just got back from the most delightful stay at the Red House Falmouth. We were greeted in the drive and our bags carried up to our room. The room was so clean and the bed was amazing. The gentleman in charge talked us through the map and directed us into Falmouth. The breakfast was delicious! So much choice... More

Hosts with the most! Full of friendly information,breakfasts with marmalades and jams all home made, immaculate rooms with excellent linens, freedom to come and go as you wish, a real home from home with bonuses! Get away from it all at The Red House, you'll be very glad that you did.

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay - the room was comfortable and warm, and Nick and Karen were very helpful - Nick gave me lots of advice on where to eat out. They catered very well for my vegan diet, even providing rice milk and vegan biscuits in the room (most guesthouses tend to forget this). The breakfast was tasty and... More

Booked this B & B after reading good reviews, but we were disappointed. The room was described as a Superior Double, but we couldn't see what was 'superior' about it. The bed was comfortable and the room was clean, but the ensuite was tiny with little space to dry yourself after using the shower. There was a view across rooftops... More
