    It would worry me in the summer, the lack of available windows to open to get any air. I went in Feb, which was great, but even with the heating off, I was warm in the night. But it wouldn't stop me going.

    Just excellent!! Right in the middle of everything. Very clean and very modern!

    We’ve stayed here before and I don’t find the beds/pillows very comfortable.

    Location is perfect for a stroll around fowey and the local walks. Although Fowey is extremely steep and one to be aware of if you struggle, once you’re at cottage you are within close walking distance to all the shops and pubs/restaurants and harbour. The cottage is equipped for dining inside or out with a little courtyard and picnic table. Had everything you need all amenities covered including washing machine iron and ironing board, spoilt with 2 bathrooms. Would happily stay here every year!

    I didn’t like the fact that there was no window to open in the main bedroom.

    The location was great, at the centre of everything. It was clean, tidy and fully equipped.

    The outside gate into the property is not very secure, it needs a bolt on the inside and a latch that goes over the top to make it more sturdy. One day we had high winds and it blew the gate open and the handle came off.

    We really liked the location and having the outside space for the dog! Also the space was very good.

    Would have been useful to know about dropping off bags close to the property. There is a loading bay quiet close to the property in which to off load bags before parking in one of the main carparks. Not a major issue but would have been useful to know.

    Great location in the town close to shops and restaurants.

    generally we liked it a lot, it was a little on the small side for 4 adults but more than adequate for 2 and 2 children. the car park was quite a (hilly) walk away but you cant help that as that is the trade off for being so central

    lovely little flat right in the heart of the town. first impressions was of a modern and very clean flat. very nicely refurbished. close to all amenities but still very quiet. great little courtyard for the dog and for sitting out in the fresh air

    Being a pet friendly location the hoover needed an upgrade to hoover up after ourselves. Could do with an extra oven tray as self catering and dining some nights in would make it easier. Also the beds were just average comfort could have been comfier.

    The location is perfect for a central spot of dining and shopping in fowey, minutes from the harbour and ferry and all the coastal walks are fabulous around!

    It was all good. Only thing I would have changed is better mattress - only because I prefer a hard mattress. Other than that all good.

    Nice and newly renovated cottage in the middle of town so very easy to get around everywhere. Very cosy snd nice play to chill.

    Disappointingly very poor value for money...
    • Business trip
    • Solo traveller

    • Stayed 14 nights

    This is a basement flat (rather than a cottage) rather airless and not much natural light. It is small even for a family of three plus dog. The parking is not convenient, public and a ten minute walk up a very steep hill and steps which would not suit anyone with mobility issues or a pushchair. It was also an extra cost of approx another £50 per week. In the light of the very high accommodation charge this should be reviewed. We had to ask for a sheet and towel change for the second week, which when the cleaner turned up she was not expecting and had to send someone out to collect the clean laundry. Rubbish is not collected so you have to carry your rubbish to a collection point down through the high street. The concierge service did not add any value to the holiday for example by offering to book restaurants (which were all booked weeks ahead) or getting supermarket delivery slots (also all taken) which given the position of parking made shopping rather onerous. We felt this property represented very poor value for money, charging premium prices without the commensurate level of service and facilities. For not much more money we could have stayed at the much nicer Fowey Hall Hotel with B&B, parking, dining facilities, room cleaning, sheet and towel services etc.

    The location and town were wonderful and we really enjoyed the activities around and about. The apartment was by and large well equipped and had good wifi and TVs in every room.
