Property code: OC-P00872

Set off on a romantic escape with your other half in this bright and stylish couple’s bolthole with a wooden-beamed cathedral-style ceiling and contemporary decor in Fowey. While away your time with relaxing beach days, scenic strolls and candle-lit dinners at the local seafood restaurants. Spend quality time together with a bottle of bubbly in the spacious open-plan living space or outside on the cosy terrace.

The upside-down layout of this property means the living space is on the first floor, where you’ll find a bold, fitted ‘L’-shaped kitchen with a Bosch coffee machine to set you up for the day. After cooking a special meal for a cosy night in, dine at the table and chairs beside the window. Afterwards, choose from the sofa or armchairs to sink into while watching a movie on the SmartTV. On the ground floor, you’ll find an elegant king-sized bedroom plus an en-suite with a walk-in double shower with a rainfall head. Outside is a paved, enclosed courtyard with furniture.

Step outside to find an array of independent restaurants, cafes and boutique shops within 0.5 miles. Stroll along the riverfront and catch a boat from Fowey Ferry Landing (0.5 miles) to the village of Polruan (1 mile) – from here you can hike along the coastal path to National Trust Lantic Bay (3 miles). If you like all-day hikes, you can continue along this path to Chapel Pool (8 miles) – a natural pool which is best visited at low tide. Explore the nearby historical landmarks, like the 1530s St Catherine’s Castle (1.5 miles), Polruan Castle (1 mile) and Gribbin Daymarker (3 miles).

An excellent cottage. Small but perfectly good for a couple. Parking an added bonus. Would have been tight to park if bays were full.

The Dolls House is ideally located in Fowey, close to the town amenities but far enough away to provide a tranquil setting away from the hubbub of high summer. Its comfortable with some lovely views of the estuary and well equipped to a high specification. Highly recommended!

The Doll's House is a clean, spacious, modern upside-down cottage, perfect for any couple who are fit enough to enjoy the walk back up from town (it took us 2 minutes to walk down and 10 to walk back!). The front of the cottage faces towards Place, the church and the estuary with good views and has a quiet, sunny outside seating area. The parking sRead morepace is next to the front door, so getting your bags in and out is easy. Google Street view is worth a look. The shower is wonderful. Hide

Dolls House cottage is a lovely place to stay in Fowey. There are lots of great places to visit in Fowey and in the area. We visited the nearby places of Charleston, Looe, Mevagissey, Polruan and Falmouth which were all real highlights. The house is close enough to town to walk to go to the shops, pubs and restaurants. The cottage is a lovely placeRead more which is nicely decorated and it is a real bonus that it has its own parking space. The shower was fab (just needed to be far more private with a blind). Would definitely recommend staying at the cottage but be mindful that its at the top of a hill so walking back might not be easy for those who are less active. Hide

Great property but be prepared it is right at the top of the town and a long hike up and down but dies advantage of car parking to enable getting out abs about without 2 mile walk to a car park.

This property was well situated at the top of Fowey, which is only a short distance to the harbour. The parking space is directly at the front of the property and is allocated. The facilities are to a high standard, bed is comfy as is the living quarters upstairs. All in all a very good property in a beautiful location.

This property in our honest opinion is a brilliant holiday apartment and we will be booking again for 2024, we did have one issue which was that the bed or the bedding which looked immaculate but smelt of sweat ?

We also have one suggestion that we feel would make it more comfortable upstairs in the living room which would be to get another 2 seater sofa instead of the 2 chairs.
