You can sit out on the balcony and enjoy the superb river views whilst you decide how best to explore this popular area of Cornwall.
There are a range of shops, pubs, restaurants and quays just a short walk away as well as nearby beaches and coastline that are sure to make the ideal backdrop for your holiday photos.
Fowey is a delightful old seaside town with many attractions. As well as local shops there are galleries showing the work of local artists and craftspeople, gift shops, riverside cafes and bistros as well as tea rooms serving delicious cream teas, all within walking distance of The Square Rig apartments.
Home to a royal yacht club, Fowey holds a Royal Regatta every August, a week-long festival which takes place both on and off the water. Every May there is also a cultural festival. Authors Daphne du Maurier and Arthur Quiller Couch lived in Fowey and the town also has links with Kenneth Grahame’s Wind in the Willows, which is loosely based on the River Fowey and uses local landmarks in the story.
On the river and the estuary there is a wide variety of birds as well as seals and even dolphins which sometimes venture close to the shore. Sightseeing boat trips offer the opportunity not only to spot the wildlife but also to see this dramatic coastline from a different perspective. If you fancy exploring further afield there is the Fowey to Mevagissey boat that runs throughout the season (weather permitting), or you can take one of the Square Rig’s kayaks or the rowing boat (strictly at guests own risk, limited range of buoyancy aids, guests are advised to bring their own or hire locally) up the river and see the small waterside villages with their quaint churches and lively pubs.
If you feel like a walk, ferries cross the estuary at both ends of the town, going to Bodinnick and Polruan. Once on the other side, there is the famous Hall Walk that follows the estuary, taking you through wooded valley, past hidden creeks and offering amazing views from the cliffs.
Other activities such as cycling, golf, horse riding and walking can all be enjoyed locally. Visits can be made to historic country houses and castles such as Lanhydrock House and Restormel Castle, as well as the Eden Project, the Lost Gardens of Heligan and other National Trust and private gardens found in Cornwall.

We stayed here for 2 nights during the Fowey Christmas market. It is a great location, a nice character flat with decent facilities. Fixtures and fittings seem a bit dated to us but were fine for what we needed. Shower is excellent.
Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2023

This flat was spotlessly clean and 'as described'.
This flat was spotlessly clean and 'as described'. The double bed was comfy (only 2 of us). There was a little footfall noise from the flat above. It only has one WC in the bathroom. The kitchen was convenient, and the lighting was first class throughout. Hot water supply was good, too. Crockery was adequate, but a few more mugs and large plates would be handy. Anyone expecting to find the usual kitsch ornaments and decorations will be sorely disappointed - it was all very tasteful and pleasant, IMHO. Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo

Great location on the river, unfortunately located between two other cottages, so noise was a problem this time. Also had what seems like a Frat Party in the cottage next door for the first week. No fault of Middle Deck - fantastic cottage. Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo

Fantastic apartment, less than 5 mins walk to town centre. Stunning views of River Fowey. Couldn’t fault this property. If anything larger than expected with good quality furnishings and equipment. Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo
