Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Seaview Inn enjoys an excellent location, just a few minutes from Falmouth town, and some rooms boast lovely harbour views. The freshly cooked breakfast is a highlight for many, and the pub downstairs offers a good selection of drinks and snacks. While a few guests have noted that the decor in some bedrooms could benefit from some attention, the inn's proximity to town and good food make it a convenient base for exploring Cornwall's sights, approximately an hour away.

The breakfast was GOOD and freshly cooked.

There was NO parking available and street parking was full frequently. This meant I had to park several streets away, a HUGE inconvenience.

Acceptable, but with Issues

small room difficult parking

The breakfast was included and quite satisfactory.

The room I booked, a Double Room Private Bathroom, was smaller than expected. Street parking proved difficult. I often had to park several streets away. The noise from the pub terrace was intrusive even after closing. It prevented restful sleep.
