Very good property

Staying in Fowey was lovely this is our second time in this property. The property was cleaner than last time with new fridge walls painted etc. We would stay in this property again and lovely Fowey. Nice walk for dogs along esplanade and headland.

garden

On arrival the garden had a bag of sticking rubbish swarming in flies. The ground and furniture was covered in birds mess so we had to wash it before we could sit in it. I phoned the caretaker and he had the rubbish removed .It would be good if there were a box to keep the rubbish bags in

Hi - I'm sorry you had to deal with left over rubbish. There are clear instructions to guests to leave the rubbish out each Wednesday evening for collection. We will endeavour to make these even clearer going forward so thanks for bringing it to our attention. There is a large plastic bin the garden that waste bags can be stored in as well as the seagull proof sacks. I do hope you had a good stay regardless of this initial problem and look forward to welcoming you again.

Rose Cottage, Fowey

A lovely cottage, a great size with everything we needed, especially with two young children. Location is excellent, a quiet area, just 5 minutes walk to the river, pubs and shops. Would highly recommend!

Lovely cottage but windows do not open.

When we arrived the cottage looked lovely, and very cosy. Great location and nice size rooms. The only main issue I have is the bedroom windows would not open, therefore we hardly slept whilst we were there as the week we were there, it was 22/23 degrees and rooms were very hot with no air. Knowing my son was in the room on his own, knowing the windows would not open was a slight worry incase anything happened. Apart from the this the cottage was a nice stay, just would of been more enjoyable if we managed to sleep.

Thank you for your review, I am glad that you enjoyed your stay at Rose Cottage. I am sorry that the upstairs windows were an issue - we discovered during your stay that as they had been recently repainted they had stuck shut. Having heard of the problem we quickly contacted the decorator who I believe visited on the day you left to make sure they were fully opening as they should be, which they now are. If you would like to contact me directly we would like to offer you a return visit to Rose Cottage at.a reduced rate. Thanks Claire

Fantastic Location

we stay in Fowey every year, normally in different cottages. However stayed in Rose Cottage last year and booked again this year. The only reason we scored it down to three stars was the bathroom was tired. However the owners have installed a new bathroom so I am sure after our next visit it will get five stars. This is our favourite part of Fowey. Not too close to the church (bells) and close to a great pub. Just a gentle stroll and your in the heart of Fowey
