Tucked away in a quiet spot at the foot of Bull Hill just 100 yards from the harbourside is Little In Sight. An historic, cottage set across three floors with an enchanting, enclosed garden to the rear offering views to the river across rooftops. The impressive garden is backed by the crenellated wall of Place House with views also to the bell tower of St Fimbarrus Church.

Entering the ancient front door there’s the twin bedroom and shower/utility room on the ground floor.

Very poor, damp and shabby and not a 4*property; we understand the restrictions and constraints around renovating a grade 2 listed property but this property is in no way a 4* holiday rental. If we werent restricted we would have left straight away.

Lovely cottage and so handy for the lovely pubs, shops and restaurants. The garden is gorgeous, having a lovely sitting area. Also, 15 minute walk to Readymoney, which our dog loved and great that dogs are allowed up to July 1st. She spent hours swimming. First floor bedroom is very comfortable and bathroom great. Kitchen has everything you need,Read more with a great TV also. We thoroughly enjoyed our holiday, just a pull up the hill to car park, which was hard going. Encouraged us to stay in Fowey, just having one drive out to Mevagissey. Fowey is our favourite UK holiday destination and made perfect by the lovely weather we had. Well be back! Hide

A lovely cottage in an excellent location. Our dog thoroughly enjoyed the garden, as did we with high quality new garden furniture. New clean carpet throughout. Lots of character but stairs might prove tricky if you have limited mobility. A really homely place with no worries about going up and down hills to get to the restaurants and shops as you Read moreare so central. Sams seems to be the place to eat. Broadband good. Despite the central location, it was a peaceful spot. We miss the gentle chiming of the church clock! Hide

Such a lovely week back in Fowey. Weather was outstanding, best we've had for years and the children loved running up and down the gorgeous garden. A beautiful house here and we will most certainly be returning. Thankyou.

The car park was a problem if you went out in the car you may have to wait up to an hour+ to get a space. if you have paid for a week I really think you should have a guaranteed space. property lovely just really awkward unloading and reloading to go home, its nobody's fault but should be clearly stated in description of property how hard this featRead more is.

Little in Sight was a super property, very nicely located near the centre of Fowey. The garden was a real bonus for the grandchildren to enjoy. Everything was very much what we had hoped for and we had a super week.
