Reviews

We had everything that we wanted for a very comfortable stay. The property was warm, very well appointed with a superb kitchen and bathrooms. The views from the top floor were lovely. We felt very spoiled by the luxurious living style and convenience of being in the heart of Fowey.

Mr L,

Fabulous! Décor was lovely, beds very comfy and views from the lounge and roof terrace are wonderful. Right in the centre of Fowey with the added bonus of a parking space right outside which is very rare. We had a lovely week at Guinevere

Mrs M,

A lovely house, furnished to a high standard and the location could not be any more central, comes with a parking space which is worth it’s weight in Gold. We cannot wait to return.

mr J,

The main reason for selecting this property was its views of the estuary. However, there were 2 factors which significantly reduced its appeal. Firstly, 3 of the double glazed windows in the Lounge were 'blown' meaning that we could not see through them. Secondly, the loungers for the roof terrace, in my opinion, were not good enough. One kept collapsing and one looked very dodgy so I was not prepared to test it. Of the remaining two, one was ok but I didn't test the other (my wife was not interested in using them because of their condition). I have not put these comments on Trip Adviser but would appreciate your comments re this feedback

Previous Customer,

This property is in the town centre and has a parking space at the house. It is really well furnished and equipped.

Mrs R,

Lovely 4 storey house with views from upstairs lounge. About the only rental property in Fowey with parking space.

Mrs F,

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.
