Guest reviews
Exceptional
Wonderful and will definitely be booking again!
Liked: The first impressions were fantastic with a very personal and warm welcome from Rebecca. She showed us around the hotel and our room, which was very helpful and welcoming. The breakfasts are truly wonderful and very personalised to your own taste, with fantastic presentation and choices. The afternoon classes and tea are a real pleasure and again is a very nice touch!
Disliked: Couldn’t connect TV to any of our Netflix or apps due to internet connection.
Beautiful, friendly guest house in a quiet location
Liked: We visited the Sandy Duck on a whim, fleeing a less pleasant hotel up north. We could not have wished for a better refuge! The staff were friendly and helpful, the hotel was cozy, quiet, and beautifully decorated, and the location was great. An easy walk to the beaches, harbor, and harborside restaurants and shops. Breakfast was delightful with a lot of creative options available. Falmouth itself was a great destination. I'd recommend this place to everyone!
We enjoyed our short stay at the Sandy Duck and loved waking up to sea views beyond the Falmouth rooftops. Excellent nig
