Boscarne

At A Glance

Overview

Boscarne is believed to have been built in the reign of Queen Anne and is home of the ‘Packet’ ships which plied between Flushing and America. The house retains many of its original features over its three storeys. The village is situated on the Penryn River with views over the harbour to Falmouth.

Boscarne is just a ten minute walk from Kiln Beach, giving access to the coastal footpath around Trefusis Headland to Mylor Yacht Harbour, which offers boat hire, launching and mooring facilities. The village itself has a small shop, two good pubs, and a quayside fish restaurant. There is access to Falmouth by frequent foot ferry.
