Such a lovely place in a great location for exploring Fowey. Really well equipped and clear instructions, plus extra information about the area and helpful communication. The top room is really lovely with great views and a gorgeous bath, however there's no separate door to the room (which is just up a flight of stairs) or the toilet in the roomRead more, so it didn't feel very private.
