Falmouth EnglandTraveling PhotographerIn Cornwall EnglandFalmouth England, beautifully situated on the island's northeast shore, is the site of Pendennis Castle. Built by Henry VIII as part of his chain of fortification castles, the castle was also used defensively in World Wars I and II. 
Although we were booked into our Cottage Holiday in Devon for 9 days, we packed a small bag and headed northeast on the A38. Having lived for 19 years on Cape Cod, Massachusetts, we were very familiar with Falmouth there and wanted to compare it with Falmouth England! 
Both Falmouths are on the coast and have gorgeous scenery, but while Falmouth, Cape Cod, tends to be more quaint and the scenery more rustic, Falmouth England is more cosmopolitan, full of medieval and military history and situated on bluffs overlooking the sea. 
At the end of the day we rang the bell of a gracious bed and breakfast in Falmouth, England. We were rewarded with two nights at The Hawthorne Dene. We agreed with the sign signifying our inn as an "Edwardian Guest House of Character and Distinction".
