Property code: OC-LITIN

This delightful, dog-friendly cottage is crammed with original features and full of historic character. Set over three floors, it’s a reviving getaway in the heart of pretty Fowey, perfect for families and friends. Close to shops and restaurants, and just half a mile from the beach, it has gorgeous river views from its enchanting garden.

Unload a short walk away then take a moment to admire the pretty facade of this charming cottage in a pedestrian lane, before entering through its ancient front door. On the ground floor you’ll find a bright and airy twin bedroom and a dual-use utility room with laundry facilities, a freezer, a shower and a WC. The other bedrooms, a double and a single, are on the first floor, along with the family bathroom, and you’ll head up the quirky, cottage-style stairs to the top floor where there’s a split-level, open-plan living space. Cook supper in the pretty kitchen, then it’s three steps up to the dining area, and afterwards you can relax on the sofas around the Smart TV or step out and up into the sloping garden, which boasts a large lawned area plus a paved terrace with table and chairs, BBQ and views of the river. There’s also a rear courtyard outside the utility room - great for storing beach equipment - which has a metal spiral staircase leading up to the garden.

The property is just 100m from the harbourside in the chic coastal town of Fowey, where you can spend days wandering the pretty winding streets and exploring a fabulous variety of independent shops and art galleries. You’re spoilt for choice with places to eat and drink, too. If you want to get out on the water, the maritime activities on offer include kayaking, fishing, boat trips and river cruising.

Very poor, damp and shabby and not a 4*property; we understand the restrictions and constraints around renovating a grade 2 listed property but this property is in no way a 4* holiday rental. If we werent restricted we would have left straight away.

Lovely cottage and so handy for the lovely pubs, shops and restaurants. The garden is gorgeous, having a lovely sitting area. Also, 15 minute walk to Readymoney, which our dog loved and great that dogs are allowed up to July 1st. She spent hours swimming. First floor bedroom is very comfortable and bathroom great. Kitchen has everything you need,Read more with a great TV also. We thoroughly enjoyed our holiday, just a pull up the hill to car park, which was hard going. Encouraged us to stay in Fowey, just having one drive out to Mevagissey. Fowey is our favourite UK holiday destination and made perfect by the lovely weather we had. Well be back! Hide

A lovely cottage in an excellent location. Our dog thoroughly enjoyed the garden, as did we with high quality new garden furniture. New clean carpet throughout. Lots of character but stairs might prove tricky if you have limited mobility. A really homely place with no worries about going up and down hills to get to the restaurants and shops as you Read moreare so central. Sams seems to be the place to eat. Broadband good. Despite the central location, it was a peaceful spot. We miss the gentle chiming of the church clock! Hide

Such a lovely week back in Fowey. Weather was outstanding, best we've had for years and the children loved running up and down the gorgeous garden. A beautiful house here and we will most certainly be returning. Thankyou.

The car park was a problem if you went out in the car you may have to wait up to an hour+ to get a space. if you have paid for a week I really think you should have a guaranteed space. property lovely just really awkward unloading and reloading to go home, its nobody's fault but should be clearly stated in description of property how hard this featRead more is.

Little in Sight was a super property, very nicely located near the centre of Fowey. The garden was a real bonus for the grandchildren to enjoy. Everything was very much what we had hoped for and we had a super week.
