Overview
Property code: 77595

This beautiful house is in an elevated terrace of period houses and boasts wide estuary views across to Fowey. It has a secluded garden and is situated in the heart of the village near to the local shop and pub.

Lose yourself in the beauty of the Cornish coast at this gorgeous four-bedroom period home in the ancient fishing village of Polruan. Enjoying an elevated position with stunning views over the river towards Fowey, it sleeps up to eight people and also welcomes two dogs, making it the perfect retreat for friends and family. It’s in the ideal spot for exploring the county’s south coastline with its clear seas and hidden coves, while the beach, shops and pubs are all within walking distance.

External steps lead up to the cottage, which is one of five on this pretty terrace. Inside, you’ll find a light and airy home with a contemporary yet homely feel. Stairs lead up from the entrance hallway to the first-floor open-plan living space which is a super area for entertaining, dining and relaxing together. Enjoying fantastic views of the estuary, the comfortable sofa in the lounge area centres around a cosy wood burner which is great for those chillier evenings. Rustle up a hearty breakfast or family dinner in the stylish kitchen, which is equipped with everything you’ll need throughout your stay. The breakfast bar provides a sociable spot to catch up over a cuppa while the dining table can seat all your guests for sociable mealtimes. Three steps lead down from here into a delightful twin bedroom, which has a bright and welcoming feel. Steep cottage-style stairs take you up to the second floor, where you’ll find the master king-size bedroom, while the remaining two bedrooms are located back down on the ground floor of the property, along with the chic family bathroom. Step outside through the French doors in the kitchen, where five steps lead up to a patio which offers a perfect spot for enjoying some al fresco dining with the charcoal BBQ, while you soak up those impressive views. There is also a lawn in this pretty, fully enclosed garden, which means the dogs can happily roam to their heart’s content. Beyond this period home, there is a right of way for the neighbouring property.

Excellent location, clean and tidy in a quiet part of the town. Right on the Coast Path which goes past the front door.

A lovely view over the river with plenty to see, in a well equipped house but be aware that this property is at the bottom of a very steep hill (and parking is at the top) so you need to be pretty fit.

Lovely place, very well equipped house with terrific views from the lounge and great morning sunshine spots in the garden. It does take a bit of logistical planning around ferry times to eat in Fowey, as limited evening options in Polruan, but once youre organised it all works absolutely fine.
