Property code: OC-1COBBS

This traditional stone-built, slate-fronted, two-storey cottage in the heart of a picturesque Cornish port town is perfect for a special getaway with family or friends. Situated in the town of Fowey, beside a tranquil river, this property is in a prime location for access to restaurants serving freshly caught seafood, a range of shops, an aquarium and a museum which are all less than 0.5 miles away. Take a day trip to National Trust Lantic Bay (4 miles) or Readymoney Cove (0.5 miles) for a relaxing beach day. Or head across the river by ferry to Bodnnick (1 mile) or Polruan (1 mile).

As you enter the cottage you’ll be greeted with a light and calming living/dining area. The space is neutral toned with modern touches. To one side of the room, two comfortable sofas and an armchair sit beside a TV and an electric fire. The layout of the seating is ideal for socialising with your guests. To the other side of the room, next to the characterful exposed stone wall and charming cottage window, is a wooden dining table and chairs. Also on the ground floor is the modern kitchen. The one-walled kitchen unit looks out onto the garden and is full of natural light. In the morning, make yourself an extra special drink from the Nespresso coffee machine. Climb the stairs to reach the first floor of the property. Up here you will find all three bedrooms, a double, a twin and a single, which have all been elegantly decorated. The family bathroom boasts a rainfall shower head over the bath. An additional workspace can be found on the landing upstairs – which offers a keyboard and a monitor.

Outside you will find a sunny south-facing garden with a terrace, a sheltered wooden gazebo and a lawn area to make the most of. Enjoy the range of seating options to relax on or dine alfresco.

Lovely cottage in a fantastic location. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. I saw some previous comments in reviews on the parking space, I drive a BMW X3 and had no problems parking in it. Would highly recommend the cottage.

Great location in the centre of Fowey, comfortable and got everything you need. The Church bells are loud it may take a couple of days to get used to them.

We loved our stay at Cobb's Well. A beautiful little cottage, fantastic central location with the bonus of a private garden and a parking space. Comfortable and clean, well equipped little gem.

This the second time we've stayed at Cobbs Well. We love the cottage and it's location, it's perfect for access to the town but set back far enough to avoid the noise. The house has been renovated to a high standard and the lovely garden is a sun trap. The parking space is tight but very helpful to have in Fowey. We plan to return!

Clean, recently decorated cottage in a great location (2 minutes from church). Although big enough for a family, no children's equipment provided and the fridge is tiny (you will not fit enough food for more a couple of days). The coffee machine in kitchen is a Nespresso - bring /buy your own pods (no details in cottage decription when we went). MaRead morettresses very soft, especially in main bedroom. Hide

Good location, tricky to find down Browns Hill but managed to find it eventually. A few minutes walk downhill to eat out in the evening or buy provisions, bakeries are really good. Don't be put off by the church in close proximity - although it chimes every 15 mins & on the hour, we did not hear it once we were in the bedroom! The shower is amaziRead moreng with good pressure which was great to use. Dogs loved the outside space, lucky with sunny weather so a nice place to sit out with a good book. Few things would improve which I have suggested to owner - kitchen utensils (e.g. only 1 wooden spatula, 3 cheap bendy knives). Just a few extra details could make this cottage even better. Tip: take a few dishwasher tablets as we only had 3, take kitchen roll, (w/up liquid & sponge is provided) All in all we had a lovely week here in Fowey, and very lucky with the weather :) Hide

Absolutely lovely dog friendly cottage with the glorious bonus of a pretty garden and nearby parking space. Ideal location, 5 minutes walk to Foweys restaurants, shops and bars & a 15 minute walk to the beach. 1 Cobbs Well is fitted out beautifully, very comfortable and clean, we had an amazing stay thank you .

Thank you so much for letting us stay in 1 Cobbs Well. Such a beautiful cottage and garden, our stay has been wonderful. We cannot praise Cobbs Well enough, the cottage and garden has been perfect for us-sad to be leaving. Cottage is in a perfect spot close to shops and harbour. Brown Sugar cafe-great for breakfast.

We had a fabulous stay at the cottage which has a great location in Fowey. We would definitely stay again. The only downside was we had to clean a few pots and pans before we could use them and the kitchen floor needed a god clean.

Thank you for a fantastic week in Fowey. We stayed for a week and 1 Cobbs Well was a perfect base. Loved the ease of walking to town for pasties and coffee or just enjoying the lovely town and walks. Thank you!

Lovely house and location and would definitely return but it seems to be a consistent theme with holiday rentals, a decent frying pan and at least 1 sharp knife surely isnt too much to ask. If there were 5 people in the house there was no large pan such as wok to make a meal, we managed as only 2 of us.

Enjoyed a week in Cobbs Well prior to a significant birthday. Everything we needed was included in the home. It was lovely to have a little welcome treat on arrival for Oscar and Nellie (dogs). It would be good to come back in better weather so as to sit in the the garden/enjoy the harbour bars in the summer. Thank you.

Lovely property. The only thing I would recommend is to advise that the parking area is extremely tight and wouldnt accommodate a large vehicle. The location and comfort of the cottage was super, very peaceful.
