Mixing snug and cosy with modern and functional, this smart home is a great choice for couples or small families looking to explore this gorgeous stretch of the South Cornish coast. Set on the outskirts of the fishing village of Fowey, it's only a short walk from traditional pubs, art galleries, and restaurants specialising in the area’s delicacy – mussels. We also love the abundance of outdoor adventures to be found nearby, including guided kayak tours up the River Fowey and boat hires. The apartment has a communal outdoor terrace that's perfect for a breakfast in the sunshine before heading down to the beach. Nearby Readymoney Cove is on the other side of town, surrounded by cliffs that keep it sheltered on windier days. And if the weather isn’t playing ball, just take your picnic inside to the open-plan kitchen and living room, complete with nautical touches.

About Fowey
Local legend tells that Jesus visited Fowey in his childhood, and you can follow in his footsteps by visiting the commemorative Punches Cross. But Fowey hasn’t always been so holy – the small port was once a hotbed for smugglers and pirates. Check out Place House, which survived an attack by Breton pirates in the 15th century.
