A wonderful stay at this end of town. It's quiet enough because you are so high above the road and the road is dead quiet at night anyway. It's great being opposite the slipway - there's often activity for the kids to watch, you get a view of the water and if you want to go out on a paddle board or something then it's incredibly easy. There's even a balcony where you can store it.

I can see why people keep coming back - Fowey is delightful and this home provides all you need to enjoy it. Loved the location up higher so you can sit and view the activity on the river (including the regular ferry). Parking is close by and free between 4pm and 9am which is great and to be honest the village has everything you could need as well - worth a visit and a stay at this lovely home

We had such a lovely stay at 'Out of the Blue'! The cottage is on the smaller side, but it’s absolutely perfect for a couple or a small family. The location is superb and makes for a great base for walking around Fowey. Be advised it is up steep steps, and being so close to the harbour and ferry there is some noise outside, but this was expected by us. We parked very close by and grabbed a weekly ticket—a handy tip for anyone driving is that we were able to use the nearby slow EV chargers overnight, which was really useful. We also loved grabbing a drink at the Nature’s Window craft beer bar just around the corner. Highly recommended!

What an absolutely incredible stay! Debbie and Chris are just so lovely and communicative. The home is incredible and very well equipped. The location was perfect: we had a quick walk into town but did not feel that we were in the middle of the tourist-filled streets. Each morning we woke up and walked to Readymoney cove for a swim :) many lunches eaten outside overlooking the river. The most memorable holiday! We hope to soon return.

Fantastic Holiday retreat

We enjoyed our stay in June 2023 a lot. The accomodation was beautiful as described and Fowey turned out to be the most beautiful place in Cornwall compared to other villages we saw. I can highly recommend a stay.

Magic stay in Fowey

Lovely apartment, beautifully decorated, all you need (and more) for a comfortable stay, with great views of the River Fowey. Fowey itself is a hidden gem, so full of character and the single narrow main street discourages general flow through traffic, ensuring it is lovely and quiet.

Lovely stay

This is a sweet spot overlooking the river, a short walk from the centre of Fowey. Everything was comfortable, clean and in order and the host was helpful. Fowey is a super base from which to explore Cornwall or just hang out - the eating out options are great and there’s lots to explore. Would highly recommend.

Brilliant Holiday Stay

Thanks to Debbie and Chris for a fab stay at their cottage. Check-in was easy. The cottage and location excellent for Fowey high street and all the shops and restaurants. The kitchen, had everything we needed and was well thought through! Lots of helpful info on what to do in the area too. Our kids loved the crabbing off the slip way in front of the house! View of the water excellent and fun watching the ferry go to and fro as well as all the yatchs and boats. We had a lovely stay!
