On the bank of the River Fowey, this cottage offers a peaceful escape. The veranda, furnished with a table and chairs, overlooks the water – the ideal spot for enjoying a cuppa while watching the boats to and fro. You’ll also have access to a shared pontoon for crabbing or kayaking on a warm afternoon. Should you be staying in the cooler months, the wood burner in the living space ensures you’re kept toasty. Location-wise, you’re a thirty-minute drive from Readymoney Cove and the South West Coast Path. And if your adventures leave you hungry, Fowey town centre plays host to a handful of pubs, cafes and restaurants.
