Overlooking the banks of the River Fowey, get swept along on a Cornish holiday to remember with a stay in this pretty loft apartment. With Georgian architecture complimented by waterside views and a shared private pontoon, there is plenty to entertain. Take a stroll to the harbour village of Fowey, take a boat or kayak and spend some time on the water, or simply relax and unwind with a BBQ and watch the sun set over this beautiful corner of Cornwall.

Original features blend effortlessly with contemporary comforts creating a beautifully light and airy living space, handily arranged on one level. Climb the external staircase and enter a haven of fresh cream and pastel shades that contrast delightfully with the wooden furniture. Relax on the cosy sofa and watch your favourite film on the TV, tucking into a tasty homemade meal before sinking in to soft, plush bedding for a cosy night's sleep. Returning to the welcoming comfort of your own apartment after a day exploring is completed with an al fresco evening meal, sipping a chilled glass of wine whilst listening to the hum of the waterway on your doorstep.

Walkers will love the direct access to the public footpath and the South West Coast Path nearby. Fowey Estuary, with spectacular walks, secluded beaches and exceptional views, is on your doorstep. The coastal village of Polruan is a 3.5-mile drive away or take a trip to Looe (11 miles) and Polperro (6.5 miles). Pretty Lostwithiel (9 miles) boasts boutique shops and antiques emporiums or get your heart pumping at the Adrenalin Quarry (19 miles) for clambering over rocks, hurtling down zip lines and deep-water swimming.

Very comfortable property and a beautiful location overlooking the Fowey estuary. Very good access to Fowey and Polruan if you bring your own boat (or hire a boat) and use the private pontoon. Access not so convenient by road as the property is quite a long way down a single track road.

Don't believe all the comments about poor access to the accommodation, the typical Cornish lanes were to be expected.

The flat is in the top floor of a beautiful old 3 storey building right by an arm of the River Fowey. It's quiet and the views are wonderful. We enjoyed good walks all around the estuary and it was fun using the ferry from Bodinnick to Fowey. The access lane is a long single track lane with passing places, but that's why the location is so special.

This apartment is such a gem. Second time staying and loved it just as much as the first. The pontoon was a perfect and convenient home to our little boat and the view was perfect. A very high recommendation from us.
