Great return visit!

Our second time at The Lookout and it did not disappoint. Such a comfortable, easy house for our group of four adults and three children. We love the outside eating area and spent much of our time up there as we were blessed with perfect weather. Good improvement to front outside area too, a lovely spot for that early morning cup of coffee. We shall most definitely hope to return!

Great location and views. The house is well equipped. My sister went to check the house before our arrival and had to clean up the kitchen as best she could. The oven and oven extractor were particularly dirty. Shame and not to be expected for the standard of the house. Beds very comfortable. Lack of toilet brushes was an issue in the bathrooms.

Hi Justine Thank you for taking the time to share the feedback following your recent stay. Naturally we are disappointed that the standard of cleanliness upon arrival was not what you would have expected. We have shared your concerns with the managing agent and they will ensure that this is immediately addressed. Despite the above we hope that you enjoyed your time in Fowey. Kind regards Steve & Philippa Cresswell

Perfect for families or singles and fantastic all round!

Fabulous central location which comfortably housed two families. Parking was about 30/40 for the week and only a few hundred yards up the road. Door step drop off is a breeze. Once you've visited Fowey you will appreciate that cars aren't required and definitely impossible to be attached to any property worth staying in!The house is three lovely storeys and immediately opposite the slip, so crabbing and boat fun was had; while others in the party cooked dinner, drank wine, and every-so-often checked on the others. Binoculars from Outriggers were bought and smugglers watched day and night Marvellous week and The Lookout was just perfect. Online shop delivery is perfect and the delivery gang from either major supplier are super friendly. Internet a breeze. That said; the local shop in town is really well stocked and very reasonable. The bakers are superb and open early for those loving an idilyic five min stroll to their door. It's a great position to visit many local sights, and we did, but *the most* fun was had in town with the locals and messing about in boats. Memories were made! We will definitely be booking up again for whenever we can get down to gorgeous Cornwall.

Beautifully put together property

Lovely venue with all mod cons! Excellent view and short walk to the shops, restaurants etc. The only slight negative is the parking. Couple of carparks located extremely close to the house but these are invariably full during peak times so bear this in mind when you're returning home before 5pm.

Lovely house and location

We were a family of 7 with young adults enjoying the town, an old duffer enjoying the sailing and all of us enjoying the walks and seaside. The house is great - with an ace living/dining/kitchen room so we all felt together. The bedrooms are not generous because it is getting the most out of a town house, and does so very well... so lacks storage in some of the bedrooms - but that is a small compromise for a brilliant location and very comfy house that is well fitted out. We cooked properly every night and the kitchen did us well for that (though we always take extra pans!)

Beautiful stay in a gorgeous house and location.

Lovely relaxing stay in a gorgeous house with stunning views and great location for amenities. House has been beautifully renovated, lovingly and to an excellent standard.I think my one thing was the sofa- rather uncomfortable .

Sehr schönes Haus für 5 bis 6 Personen

Ein tolles Haus mit sehr guter Ausstattung. Das Haus zu finden, ist gar nicht so einfach, die Anreise mit dem Wagen durch die engen Gassen Fowleys etwas herausfordernd. Sehr zu empfehlen!

Fantastic family holiday

We had a wonderful 2 weeks in this gorgeous house in the centre of Fowey. Lovely to sit out and watch the world go by on the Estuary. Plenty to see and do and plenty of nearby beaches to visit. The house is really well equipped and our family of 6 felt really at home. Would highly recommend

A nice place to stay

Overall a lovely house. Good view. Modern decor. Spotlessly clean. The lack of car parking was a real pain. The ice machine on the fridge didn't work and there was no coffee machine which we would have liked.

.did think bunks might be better as one bed next to the window could be considered alittle dange

Fantastic views from the windows all the house has been refurbished. Easy to walk in to town which has every thing you want. The house is lacking a few things in the kitchen ie more saucepan s. And l think it should be advertised for 6. People plus 2 children

Perfect 👌

We had a very wonderful time at this beautiful house. There was everything you need and the few from the terrace and the living room window was amazing. We spent a lot of time there just looking at the river and having good drinks. Fowey is a nice little town where you can find lots of little shops good restaurants and pubs. We will come back! Thanks for a wonderful holiday!

Great house if you don't want to use your car all the time. Lots of good shops, pubs and restaurants

A lovely house with beautiful views and nice easy walking to shops and pubs. It would really benefit from having a mirror in the top bedroom as very difficult to apply make up or dry hair in there.

Hello Sally, Thank you for your review, we are glad you enjoyed your stay at The Lookout! There is a full, lit mirror in the en-suite but an additional mirror in the bedroom is a great idea and something we will look into. We hope to see you in Fowey again in the future!

Delightful Townhouse in great position

We had a wonderful stay ( and Christmas ) in The Look out. Great position overlooking the estuary, close to the ferry ( great coastal walk ) and very close to the centre. Immaculately presented house in a contemporary style we like. Spacious bedrooms all with great sea views . A lovely open plan living area and very well equipped kitchen. We really appreciated our Christmas treats and the beautiful Christmas tree on arrival. A very memorable stay. Thank you very much .
