Polruan is an historic village famous for its boat building heritage. Perfectly positioned on the Fowey river estuary, which is a thriving centre for fishing, seafaring, shipbuilding and agriculture. The villages remoteness gives the area an unspoilt charm with its narrow streets better suited to horse and cart then modern-day cars, flights of slate steps twist between the houses. There are two village pubs and a passenger ferry that takes you across to neighbouring town of Fowey. Further afield there are plenty of places to explore, why not visit the tall ships at Charlestown, take the brewery tour in St Austell or visit the Eden project or the Lost Gardens of Heligan. Visit Lanhydrock House or take the dog for a run at the trials at Cardinham Woods near Bodmin.

Here you will find a twin room (accessed via a small set of stairs) with stunning views across the River Fowey. Along the hallway is a handy utility room with washing machine and tumble dryer. This hallway also leads through to the shower room with corner shower and WC. At the far end of this hallway there is a staircase which leads up to one of the double bedrooms with beautiful river views. At the other end of the hallway, heading up the larger of the three staircases, you will find the master double bedroom with panoramic views and an en-suite bathroom with handheld shower over bath and WC. Heading downstairs to the lower floor there is a kitchen/diner with electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge/freezer and dishwasher. The dining area is at the end of the room, the table can comfortably seat six, with views over the river and a patio door leading out to the garden. Heading back through to the lounge with two large sofas, wood- burner, TV and DVD. You can't miss the stunning views from the sliding patio doors which lead out to the patio.

We have stayed at this house many times over the years. It is our absolute favourite. The location can't be beaten and there are wonderful estuary views, including Polruan harbour, out of every window. So we often watch a tall ship or the lifeboat or the Troys etc going out and are able to run to the Block house to watch their progress to the open Read moresea. The house is comfortable, well equipped and spacious with good inside and outside space.Plenty of room for everyone. We love it. Hide

Beautiful cottage, with fab views. We loved it and will visit again. Of all the cottages we've stayed in, in Polruan (pretty much most of them) this is a firm favourite.

The cottage is really cosy and one of the best bits was sitting in the garden first thing in the morning with a cup of tea.

Such a fabulous location, perfect views across to Fowey. Super comfy beds and sofas to lounge on at the end of the day. The garden was great for my dog and the patio lovely to sit out on. Slight hiccup on arrival with cleaners but the lovely ladies from Holiday Cottages sorted it out immediately and were super kind and generous.

The view alone makes this house a dream to stay in. I could sit in the garden all day. Clean, tidy and well equipped. I have stayed here on several occasions at different times of the year and will definitely return.

This was a beautiful place to stay. Every room has a view of the harbour. There's no parking at the house, so we parked in the town car park. We had 6 adults and a dog staying and had space for everyone. Lovely walks from the cottage and nearby.

Fantastic location and views. Really comfortable and interesting house. Well equipped kitchen. We also appreciated the binoculars in the living room for watching the boats in the harbour. Great fish and chips at the Russell Inn. Everywhere was very dog friendly, including the ferry over to Fowey.

The cottage is perfectly placed in Polruan, ideal for walks, pubs, visiting Fowey and the surrounding area. The absolute highlight of our stay were the outstanding views from all rooms. It was comfortable and clean and had everything that we needed. We would most definitely stay again.

Lovely property in the most perfect location. Warm, cosy and beds comfortable. However It would really benefit from some updating as a little tired inside.
