The property could do with some refurbishment. However the views are spectacular and the the rooms on the first floor very light. It was a pleasure to sit and look out. Walks into and back from Polruan are challenging - steep paths. But it is great to be able to get a ferry over to Fowey from the quayside.

Amazing house, phenomenal views with ability to sit inside with the sliding door open or out on the balcony. Beautiful walks on the doorstep. Short walk down the hill to a great bakery and lovely cafe, pub and the ferry. Was a bit tricky with the only access to the decked lower garden area was through one of the bedrooms downstairs but I think we aRead morell agreed the views from upstairs were worth the inconvenience! Plenty of room upstairs for the family to spread out and relax. Hide

We had a lovely stay at this property over Xmas . It was large enough for 6 adults and 2 dogs. The views are stunning as high up on the hill. Lots of walks available weather permitting but be aware the hill is steep. Charlotte from local management company extremely helpful with pre trip queries and small issues during our stay.

Spinnaker has everything you need for a relaxing, peaceful holiday. The view is spectacular! A lovely place to relax and unwind in comfort, stunning house and fully equipped with everything anyone could need for a quality holiday. We stayed as a couple (and two small dogs) but this house would be a great choice for a large family holiday.

A comfortable spacious property with great views and outstandingly stunning sunsets! We felt it was a good central location, not far from many points of interest (using the car ferry at Fowey makes most journeys even shorter) Felt the garden could be more dog friendly. There's an unfenced living pond in the centre of the deck. There's no outside liRead moreght either, but we managed ok with a torch. Still the dogs enjoyed the balcony views too. Hide

I would recommend this property for it's comfort, spaciousness and outstanding views of Polruan and Fowey. Even watching the rain is enchanting. Polruan has sea and estuary delights. Plenty of fun to be had on the water and wonderful walks from the house. A lovely warm family home. Beware of steep hills!
