8. Joyce's 17th century cottage (from USD 213)

What’s special about Falmouth is the fact that it is a beach town, with a quintessential England feel. If you stay inside Joyce’s 17th-century cottage, you’ll get exactly that feeling. The cottage is steps from the riverfront and offers beautiful harbor views, but still, provides the architecture of a standard 17th-century fisherman’s cottage. The location is perfect for spending time at both the beach and inside the town. It can comfortably sleep six people, and it has great value, so it’s another perfect option for families.
