Property code: OC-CHVIEW

An attractive and spacious four-bedroom property with impressive harbour views, Harbour House is a fantastic base for friends or families to enjoy a classic seaside holiday. The house is located near the centre of Fowey with its collection of unique local shops and boutiques, harbour-side cafes, welcoming pubs and excellent restaurants offering tempting local produce. Small boats or kayaks are available to explore the estuary, or you may prefer a scenic river or sea cruise. There is a sandy beach at Readymoney Cove 0.5 miles away, or hop on the passenger ferry which runs across the harbour to the quaint neighbouring fishing village of Polruan. For a unique insight into the local species in these waters, visit Fowey Aquarium. For the walkers, Fowey lies within one of the many Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty in Cornwall. The surrounding countryside, with its tidal creeks, rolling fields and rugged cliffs, will make you want to return here again and again. Don’t miss the Fowey Festival of Words and Music, held in May, or the Fowey Royal Regatta, held in August. Both bring many additional attractions and events to the town.

Beautifully furnished over three floors, this inviting home offers river views from many rooms. The large open plan sitting/dining room has two plush sofas, an armchair, and an Amazon-enabled TV, with a bay window giving views of the harbour and across the water to Polruan. A few steps lead from the living room to the stylish and well-equipped kitchen and a separate utility room. On the first floor are three bedrooms, one with a king-size bed and one with a bunk-bed – both sharing river views. The other bedroom on this floor has twin single beds. There is also a family bathroom with a bath, shower over and WC. On the top floor, the spacious master bedroom has a king-size bed, sloping ceilings and an excellent harbour view. There is also an additional shower room with WC.

Outside is a small walled garden and decked area with a table and chairs, perfect for relaxing after a day exploring the South Cornwall coast.

We have just returned from a blissful stay at Harbour View. We came here 12 years ago, but it has had quite the makeover since then! It is so comfy, so beautifully decorated, extremely well equipped and the views and location are perfect. We will definitely be back. Thank you so much!

Very well equipped and appointed house throughout. Great views from front rooms. Quiet location, yet central. Walking from the house to the coastal path is easy. Excellent eateries and bakeries in Fowey. Recommend getting groceries delivered as Fowey is steep.

We have had the most amazing and memorable christmas - so much to do around Fowey we haven't needed to use the car. Fowey is beautiful, exhilarating walks and the sun shone! Harbour View House has everything we needed and more. It has been an absolute treat! Thank you.
