Named after the local stone from which it is built, this delightful little cottage provides a fantastic holiday home for couples and smaller families looking for a quiet base for exploring the coast of South Cornwall. Set in a tranquil spot with no passing traffic, the cottage is a stroll from the centre of Fowey, with a choice of great restaurants and friendly pubs nearby. The pretty beach at Readymoney Cove is just a half-mile walk away. There are wonderful local attractions to visit, including the Lost Gardens of Heligan, the country house and estate at Lanhydrock, Treffry Viaduct and Pinetum Gardens, all within 15 miles. Heading along the coast there’s a wealth of sheltered coves and picturesque seaside villages.

Entering this friendly and airy property, the delightful lounge is a great spot to unwind in. With timber beams, an exposed stone wall and a warming wood burner set in a stone fireplace, this is a lovely space to relax, watch a movie or catch up with a good book.

An excellent location! Really in the centre of everything! Would definitely recommend, but not for very young children. Dropping the luggage off without parking at the premises is not the end of the world to be staying in such a central location!

The beds were comfortable and having two bathrooms was a bonus. However, the count yard is not really suitable for dogs, would suggest covering the gaps on the metal steps.

Great location, a lovely cottage that was very clean and comfortable, all the beds were comfortable and we all slept really well (despite the noisy seagulls!!). Neighbours very pleasant. Outdoor space is good for families (but steps to the patio are steep so be careful if very young, elderly or for dogs)

Beautiful little cottage, had everything we needed and great location for 4 adults and a dog. Loved the outdoor tap too so we could wash off muddy boots and the dog! Only thing I would change is the 09:00 check out time, just a bit too rushed in the morning to get out for that time.

Nice property in a central location with comfortable beds and good quality linen. The living room is quite small and might not be suitable for families with active young children.

Great property in a fantastic location right behind the main town of Fowey, an ideal base for exploring and relaxing alike. Small unloading bay a few metres from the property as well as short, relatively flat walks to more long term parking options.
