Property code: 83821

Nestled on the waters edge boasting spectacular River views this property is the perfect retreat for families and friends looking to enjoy time away at the Cornish Coast.

Traditional three-bedroom cottage nested on the water’s edge of the River Fowey and boasting incredible views. Enjoy leisurely lunches on the patio, walks along the harbour, and fun-filled adventures with your four-legged friend in this beautiful home in Polruan.

Kick off sandy boots and step inside the cottage to reveal tranquil tones, nautical themes and plenty of space for entertaining. Warm chilly feet and paws beside the electric feature fireplace while admiring the outstanding waterside views or let yourself into the second lounge where even more comfy seating and a Smart TV provide a perfect spot after a day of adventures. Pour yourself a glass of crisp white wine and cook up a storm in the well-equipped kitchen before sharing delicious dishes in the dining room (and look out for sniffly snouts!). Let your pup out on the generous lawn before heading up the staircase to three lovely bedrooms. Climb into your comfiest pyjamas and curl up in one of three stunning beds adorned with crisp linens and quality bedding. And rest assured that there are two shower facilities to ensure nobody needs to wait longer than necessary!

Spend your mornings savouring your Nespresso coffee on the balcony before heading down to the harbour side for walkies along the river. Should you want to eat out, this ancient fishing village benefits from two village pubs, a cafe, a bakery and some quaint independent stores. A passenger ferry will take you across to Fowey (4.5 miles), where you can bask on the beach of Readymoney Cove or join the South West Coast Path for a challenging hike along the clifftops. Eden Project (16 miles) and Lanhydrock (18 miles) also make for great days out.

A lovely cottage with an amazing view over the harbour and across to Fowey. We thoroughly enjoyed our week here (2 adults, 2 children 11 and 14, 1 dog). Very nice welcome treats on arrival and everything was clean, comfortable and in good condition. Friendly village with shop, cafe, bakers and 2 welcoming pubs. Ferry across to Fowey very frequent aRead morend reliable. Hide

A fantastic location - an absolute joy taking in the view. Easy ferry trip to Fowey for restaurants and beach. Those of you reading previous comments about the low wall need not worry as a lovely glass screen has been installed to give a 'wall' without affecting the great views. Not a garden suitable for ball games , fantastic for chilling. Care neRead moreeded driving down the lane to the parking space. Great coastal walks nearby. We had a lovely week there Hide

We have had a perfect two week stay at this charming cottage. The location was ideal and we enjoyed going out on walks or catching the ferry to Fowey and Mevagissey. We also caught the local bus to Polperro which is a lovely place to visit. We would also recommend a trip out to Bodmin jail, it was not at all what I expected and well worth the moneyRead more. There are two local pubs. The Lugger inn needs to be booked for meals. Both pubs are in walking distance. Loved our stay in Polruan. Hide

Amazing view from garden. Property nice and roomy. Polruan is a lovely little village, although the steep streets and steps can be challenging. Ferry to Fowey very useful.

Lovely area but difficult to drive to/park at. This aspect changed our plans for the trip as we did not feel able to take the car out frequently. Very easy to get the ferry across to Fowey which is a lovely day out. The view from the property is lovely. Garden not suitable for children/dogs, but especially the former. The wall is only a foot or twoRead more high with a long drop the other side, so not ideal with young children. Hide

This cottage is in a lovely location with fantastic views. The cottage itself was very clean and had a well equipped kitchen and nice bathrooms. There are the expected quirks from such an old property like very steep stairs, odd patch of damp, low door frames ( watch your head). The outside space and uncomfortable garden furniture let this propertyRead more down a bit, which is a shame as it could be wonderful. Hide

If you have a larger car you may need to reverse down the narrow lane that accesses the property as with other cars parked in their parking spaces in the lane there is no where to turn round.
