Overview
Property code: PC016

Situated in an enviable position overlooking the River Fowey, this detached cottage is perfect for families looking to explore the beautiful county of Cornwall. Renowned for its spectacular coastline, this is an ideal base for you and your four-legged friends to discover the golden sandy beaches, dramatic coast path and stunning scenery surrounding these shores. Positioned in the heart of the ancient fishing village of Polruan means you are within walking distance to local amenities and tail-wagging coastal walks.

The cottage is unique in its layout, entering on the first floor where the two tranquil bedrooms boast fantastic countryside and river views. Head downstairs to the light and bright living areas where you can relax and socialise with family after a day of adventures with your pack. The sunny conservatory which overlooks the harbour is perfect for unwinding in with a good book as your pups doze by your side. Or dine alfresco in the secluded garden with a glass of wine, watching the sun dip below the river.

Polruan is a beautiful hillside village surrounded by water on three sides, overlooking the River Fowey. Fishermen’s cottages line its steep, narrow alleys and the charming harbour is the perfect spot to watch the boats bob on the water. This area is a paradise for walkers who love to explore the coast path with their canine companions. Fowey (4 miles) is accessible by car or ferry and is a quaint picture-postcard town with a bustling harbour where leisure boats come and go. This pretty little town is renowned in Cornwall for its beauty and is a must-see whilst you’re here.

Chapel House exceeded our expectations from the moment we walked through the door. Wonderful views from every window, immaculately clean with everything you could need. The terrace and delightfully planted garden were so lovely, we sat for hours watching the view. Would highly recommend this property and we wished we could have stayed longer.

We cant wait to come back & stay here again, we really liked staying here as a family. The house is well equipped with everything you might need during your stay. The view from the garden is fantastic & we spent most evenings sat out watching the bats silhouetted against the back drop of fowey harbour while listening to the owls hoot in the distancRead moree, simply magical. Definitely use the bag drop of point near the house when arriving & leaving as it is a long walk to the car park. 10/10 perfect. Hide

Beautiful house in a blissful location! Had wonderful week, particularly enjoyed sitting in the conservatory in the evening watching all the boats. (Could have been a little cleaner in some parts, but not enough of a problem to prevent us visiting again.) Yes, quite a steep access, but if you're fit and able it's not a problem, and the elevated posRead moreition looking over the inlet is well worth the effort. Drop off from car was easy enough, too.

Chapel House was lovely and reflected the care taken in creating a homely, relaxing environment to spend time in. The garden was a real highlight, with beautiful views of the estuary and over to Fowey. We would happily return.

A wonderful cottage to stay in at any time of year; comfortable well equipped and with amazing (SW facing) views over estuary and Fowey. We come back every year for an annual "re-charge of the batteries".
