We had a great stay at the cottage and we were so fortunate with the weather, hence made the most of the garden for breakfast and late afternoon after returning home from our daily excursions. We felt the location was ideal and liked that it is centrally located in Fowey yet set back enough to be quiet and peaceful - even with the hourly church belRead morels ringing out! Overall we thoroughly enjoyed our stay, thank you. Hide

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

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.
