Location

Mulberry Quay is a small, select, enclave of just ten freehold harbour-facing properties, the owners of which have an equal share in the management ensuring a high degree of control and maintenance to the communal areas. On the harbour side of the house, there is the terraced garden and private residents' quay, ideal for those with a deep water mooring within the harbour. The surrounding sailing waters of the Fal Estuary, tree-lined creeks of the Rivers Fal, Percuil and Helford are, together with Falmouth Bay and The Western Approaches, widely recognised as perhaps the best day-sailing waters in the country, and the multitude of sailing and water sports clubs in the area provide exceptional facilities for sailors of all abilities. One of the immense benefits of Mulberry Quay is its quiet, secure setting which, at the foot of Falmouth's Old High Street, means the town's excellent range of shops, commercial facilities, restaurants and leisure amenities are all within easy walking distance. Prince Of Wales Pier is on the doorstep with pedestrian ferries to picturesque Flushing and St Mawes.
