About Us
Cornwall Plus delivers summer accommodation in Penryn, Cornwall, near Falmouth
Cornwall Plus is a Penryn-based accommodation provider founded in 2012 as the trading subsidiary of Falmouth Exeter Plus. During July and August, once students have departed for the summer, we welcome guests to stay in our university double and twin en-suite rooms, and spacious seven-bedroom flats. In addition to summer accommodation, we offer year-round conference facilities, events, and venue hire. All surplus generated by Cornwall Plus is reinvested into Falmouth Exeter Plus, directly supporting the Penryn Campus, its facilities, and the student and staff community.
The Campus is conveniently located between Truro (8 miles) and Falmouth (4 miles), making it an ideal base to explore Cornwall.
Sustainability is really important to us
For many years, we have been working to make our campuses more sustainable, from stopping supplying plastic straws, zero waste initiatives, to using locally sourced and ethical produce, to ambitious energy and sustainable procurement projects.
Furthermore, we aim to create a healthy, ecologically, economically, and socially responsible living environment. We recognise our responsibility towards promoting the principles of one planet living; including minimising our use of non-renewable resources, appropriate planning and investment in sustainable practices, using locally sourced and ethical produce, the involvement of customers, and providing an education in sustainability relevant to a world threatened by climate change.
We proudly fly the Green Flag Award for our stunning Campus grounds and gardens. The judges described our grounds as a “wonderful, unique” place and a “horticultural wonder”. Above all, our gardens are a “perfect habitat” for wild flowers, insects, birds, and bees. Furthermore, the judges described Tremough and the Italianate gardens as a “plant collector’s paradise”.
