Property code: OC-P00703

An elegant apartment on two levels, sleeping four and set within in an award-winning restoration of the former station master’s house is an excellent base for exploring the delightful riverside town of Fowey. The apartment is within 100 metres of the river, where you can take boat trips around the harbour or the ferry across to Bodinnick to see Fowey from the water. Stroll the narrow streets, with their independent shops, pubs and seafood restaurants and visit the town museum on the waterfront to discover more about this picturesque fishing port’s fascinating history. Glorious clifftop and estuary walks abound, and you can hire a canoe or kayak to paddle up the river’s atmospheric creeks and backwaters. Fowey is famous for its association with Daphne du Maurier and the National Trust Gribbin Head coastal walk (4.5 miles) visits many of the sites vividly portrayed in her novels. Readymoney Cove (0.5 miles) is a short walk from the town and there are more inviting beaches nearby, including Menabilly and Lantic Bay (both 3.5 miles).

Set across two floors, plus a mezzanine workspace, this spacious, light-filled property is beautifully furnished in sophisticated style. The ground floor houses two bedrooms, one a double and the other with full-size double bunk beds. A short flight of five steps gives access to the top bunk bed and both have individual bedside lights. Each bedroom has a door opening to an enclosed rear terrace outside. Stairs lead to the first floor and a spacious living area with comfortable seating. A short step at floor level separates this part of the apartment from a roomy streamlined kitchen/dining space. A further short flight of stairs reaches a mezzanine floor with a desk and chairs.

The rear terrace is enclosed by walls and furnished for both seating and dining.

  • 2 bedrooms-1 double, 1 with full-size double bunk beds

The accommodation was in an excellent location, quiet and peaceful but close enough to explore Fowey and all the wonderful places it has to offer! The accommodation has all of what is needed for a comfortable stay, underfloor heating, comfortable beds. Fully equipped kitchen and loads of room.

The property was lovely and its location perfect. It had everything we needed and we would love to return. Car parking directly outside was a huge bonus. Loved Fowey.

Great apartment in a great location. Having its own parking in Fowey a massive plus. Outside seating areas poor.

We enjoyed our stay and the location with parking is very convenient. The kitchen is reasonably well equipped for its size. The bed is small but a bigger one wouldnt fit in and the room is well designed to make the most of a small space.

Beautiful property in a unique location with helpful additions that make your stay feel special. Wonderful access to the town yet quiet setting nestled down by the ferry. Beautifully decorated home with modern touches which worked for us with our 3YO child.

This was perfect for a family short break. The house was immaculate and a stone's throw from the centre of town. It was very modern and had the benefit of its own car park, a rarity in Fowey.
