Property code: OC-JACKDA

In the heart of the popular Esplanade in Fowey, this stylish and spacious property is ideal for a family, a couple or a group of friends looking for a peaceful holiday close to the beautiful beaches of the south Cornwall coastline. Perfectly located, you can walk to the foot ferry to go across and spend the day in picturesque Polruan (0.5 miles) and discover the independent shops and the castle. Readymoney Cove, a small, sheltered sandy beach, awaits your buckets and spades less than a mile away.

This lovely flat is set over two floors and is reached by a flight of stairs to the first floor. Plenty of natural light and the thoughtful decor and artwork on the walls create a welcoming feel. There is plenty of space to spend quality time together as the property boasts a separate living room with two large sofas and a Smart TV where you can be entertained watching your favourite box sets. There is a contemporary feel throughout, and the kitchen is a delight to cook in, while the lovely dining space makes this a great social space. Upstairs you’ll find a bathroom and two bedrooms - a king-size and a twin - with river views between the rooftops. There is no garden, but as the property is less than 200 metres from the harbour you can enjoy sitting out there and watch the world go by.

Walkers will love taking the South West Coast Path towards Gribbin Head (2.5 miles), passing St Catherine’s Castle. For beaches, head to National Trust Lantic Bay (5 miles by car or 2.5 miles along the coast path) and walk the rugged headlands or relax on the white sand at Pentewan Beach (12.5 miles) and then spend some time at the world-famous Lost Gardens of Heligan (14 miles) with its magical gardens, farmland, and endless woodland walks.

An excellently located appartment for visiting Fowey Town centre with the added bonus of a car parking space. The accommodation was comfortable, clean and well equipped. Ideal for a short break.

Lovely apartment in the heart of Fowie, 30 seconds walk from the sea, restaurants, shops, passenger ferry, etc. Well furnished and has everything you may need in the kitchen. A secure parking space being included is a great plus, as it can be hard to find somewhere to park in the town. There is a short walk up/down a hill to/from the parking spaRead morece, but good exercise twice a day. Would definitely return. Hide

A well-appointed and well-equipped property that was perfect for our stay. Comfortable bed and best shower we've experienced in any holiday property. The owner Richard couldn't have been more helpful. Will happily return.
