Great property in an excellent location (2 mins walk from the Ferry to Fowey where all the action is). Jacuzzi an excellent touch. !SELECTED!Bedrooms a little small (i.e. no desk space) and some scope to enhance maintenance / upkeep of the property in a few areas (e.g. pool table is quite worn). !ENDOFSELECTED!

The house it self was perfect, location wise could not be better, the views are stunning, lovely watching the sunset from the hot tub. Bar area and lounge were fantastic to sit and chill. The area around is very quiet and peaceful.

The house is in a great position and offers really nice accommodation. We especially enjoyed the hot tub and the outside space. Great to have Sky TV & good WiFi. Apart from a few small cosmetic issues that I expect would be fixed soon, we had a super stay.

A great cottage ! We really enjoyed the hot tub overlooking the estuary. We also had great moments playing snooker. We recommend the hall walk to bodinnic ,followed by a nice pub meal in Fowey ( ferry necessary).
