Perfectly situated on the banks of the River Fowey, the property is close to the ancient port of Fowey. The coastal village of Polruan is a short drive away, with a passenger ferry linking the two. Only slightly further afield, days out can include trips to Looe and Polperro to the east, and Mevagissey to the west.

Step inside this delightful property via the external staircase and you will then find that all of the accommodation is handily arranged on one level. The largest area comprises of a beautifully light and airy lounge/kitchen/diner. Here snuggle up on the cosy sofa and watch your favourite film on the TV after a day exploring, or enjoy a relaxed meal without having to venture out and the compact yet perfectly appointed kitchen boasts an electric oven and hob, microwave and fridge. The delightful bedrooms are located back towards the main entrance and firstly consist of a spacious double bedroom with water views and opposite this a cosy  single bedroom with an additional single pull out bed (which can be used to accommodate an additional guest). The final room inside the property is a bathroom with shower over bath and WC.

The property benefits from access to a beautifully presented shared garden with a choice of patio area, and this provides a perfect place to enjoy a glass of wine at the end of the day. Private off-road parking for two cars is provided.

The beds are terribly uncomfortable and gave us painful backs every morning. We complained to Management Services back in June, but nothing was done about it. A modern comfortable mattress is essential. The tv is old and should be replaced with a smart tv. The cleaner does a good job in keeping the place clean, many thanks. A double Air Fryer wouldRead more save a lot of energy. Hide

The location is stunning and the cottage is generally nice. However do call first and get proper directions as the road is extremely narrow and the cottage is hard to find especially in the dark. However the parking space was huge and the outside again stunning. decor can be improved in living room. Bedrooms were nice. Do stock up on lots of food aRead mores the nearest store if open is a few miles away by car. We love Fowey and this cottage was the first place we stayed at in 2012. This time with kids. Hide
