Travelers' Choice
A charming, historic boutique hotel set in a secluded section of 18th century Nelson's Dockyard, offering casual elegance and friendly, personal service, provides the perfect backdrop for relaxation, romance, special events and being active if you choose. The 32 rooms and suites are housed in 4 historic buildings on the waterfront and a headland 100 yards across the bay. The hotel offers a small non-swimming beach, spectacular infinity edged pool, a spa and two excellent open-air restaurants, Pillars and Boom. There is a complimentary boat shuttle to the swimming beach in Freeman's Bay and kayaks to explore the harbour. The perfect hotel for relaxing in peace and quiet or for finding plenty of activities (sailing, scuba diving, hiking, snorkeling, yoga) and fun (several restaurants and nightlife) only 5 - 10 minutes away. A great spot for honeymoons and weddings for 2 to 200.

Wow what a place this is. Set out in Nelson's Dockyard it's full of history. We stayed in the Admirals Inn with the Gunpowder suites located across the water. The building we stayed in was Nelson's pitch and turpentine store. Cleverly converted into hotel rooms, don't expect large rooms but expect originality and plenty of character. Whilst we were there things were just starting to open up again. Breakfast was served at the Gunpowder suites with a lovely water taxi ride across, piloted by Paul the owner who is a mine of local knowledge. The place is a 10 minute walk to bars and shops and Falmouth harbour. Also the number 17 bus stops right outside the hotel which takes you to St Johns, the capital. A special mention goes to all the staff here. They were so welcoming and friendly, nothing was too much trouble and they all became our friends!! Thank you for making our stay so enjoyable.

I stayed for 6 nights at Gunpowder and had a great time. The rooms and facilities are very clean and well kept with great attention to detail. Location is fantastic with English Harbour a 5-10 min walk. Hotel was perfect for the relaxing 'lay by the pool' week that was needed. Thank you to all the staff for making my stay.
