Description

It really isn't possible to get closer to the water than Chandlers, a comfortable apartment where you can actually fish from the balcony at high tide if you wish. The fantastic uninterrupted views of the ever changing river can be enjoyed from the lounge/kitchen/diner and bedroom. On a warm day you can open the balcony door and enjoy all the boats and ships passing by within 200 yards. There is also a great view of 'Ferryside' the one time home of author Daphne du Maurier across the water at Bodinnick. This is du Maurier country and the acclaimed Fowey festival attracts many to its talks, walks, plays and poetry. The centre of Fowey with its many independent shops, cafes, inns and restaurants is within a few hundred yards walk.

Reviews

This is a perfect property in which to relax and unwind, the setting on the river is incredibly beautiful, and the place was spotlessly clean when I arrived. The selection of books was very appropriate- I spent many a happy evening reading Daphne du Maurier during my stay. Fowey itself is beautiful and charming, with great pubs and restaurants, and some great walks along the South West Coastal Path. I am very much looking forward to my next visit.

Dr P,

Wonderful views of the river from every window.

Ms E,

We love staying at Chandlers but it could do with a few renovation bits.

Mr A,

Great location overlooking the mouth of the river, enabling us to watch the the ever-changing river activities. The property was very comfortable and we thoroughly enjoyed our time there. The balcony was a little tight for two adults but that didn't really bother us. Overall, I thoroughly recommend it.

Mr B,

Chandlers is a beautiful property in a fantastic location, ideal for a couple looking for a comfortable base in easy reach of amenities - shops, pubs and restaurants.

Mr W,

The property was lovely, it was furnished well and in a great location. We hope to return in the future.

Ms Alison J,

Very misleading photo of balcony not as big as expected.

Mr Sean G,

A lovely cottage in a stunning location.

Mr H,

We had the most wonderful time in Chandlers. It was an amazing location, warm and cozy, superbly clean, comfortable bed, could not have wished for more. Cornish Horizons were great with all the information sent and I would most definately book with them again, no question. So thank you from both of us.

mrs S,

Location

If you haven't yet discovered Fowey, you've got a treat in store.  Full of multicoloured cottages, perched on the hillsides leading down to the sea, this little fishing town has lots to tempt visitors. 

There is an entrancing collection of unique local shops and boutiques, along with harbourside cafes, pubs which will give you a hearty welcome and a good atmosphere, and restaurants offering tempting local produce.  If you want a unique insight into the local species in these waters, you could visit Fowey Aquarium, whose residents include specimens brought in by local fishermen.

If you're a fan of Daphne du Maurier, you may want to visit the Literary Centre, which gives information and exhibits about the author and her life and work.  There is also the Fowey Festival of Words and Music, held in May, in which du Maurier, and many other authors, artists and musicians, are celebrated.  Another great spectacle is the Fowey Royal Regatta, held in August.

Fowey lies within one of the many Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty in Cornwall, and the backdrop of the surrounding countryside, with its tidal creeks, rolling fields and rugged cliffs, will make you want to return here again and again.
