Fowey is situated at the mouth of the River Fowey in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The neighbouring villages of Polruan and Bodinnick are a short ferry ride across the estuary. Set in the middle of the South Cornish coastline between Mevagissey and Looe, Fowey plays host to a number of major cultural and maritime events, including the Fowey Festival of Arts and Literature and the Fowey Royal Regatta. Whilst Fowey remains a working, deep water port, it is also the perfect base from which to explore the Channel Islands and beautiful harbours and creeks of the West Country.
Throughout the summer, its harbour teems with boating activity, from competitive racing of the local Troy class, cruising yachts and dinghies, to large gaff-rigged wooden Oyster luggers and visiting cruise liners. The town itself is rich in amenities with all manner of shops, banks, boutiques, bars, delicatessens, and restaurants. It also has its own hospital, doctors, and dentists’ surgeries, as well as a library, and primary and secondary schools.
Approached via a private driveway with electric gated entrance leading to parking area to the front of the property. Beneath the drive are multiple garden stores that lead to the guest annexe. Beyond this, mature gardens lead to a seating area that frames the inspiring views. The west facing garden features a patio and lawn with steps leading up to a parking space off the road at the top. The property also enjoys a landing stage that provides direct water access onto the foreshore and a separate dinghy store. There is a sedum roof, and a CCTV system has been installed.
