Cob Loaf Cottage

Cob Loaf Cottage is a converted mill on the outskirts of Fowey, part of a small cluster of stone-built cottages with off-road parking and an outdoor play area. The two-bedroom property sleeps four, with weekly prices starting from £559.

Inside, an open-plan living space connects the lounge, dining area, and kitchen. A door from the lounge opens onto the back garden. The cottage suits families or couples looking for a base within walking distance of both town and coast.

Readymoney Cove beach is 0.8 km away, a downhill walk that passes below the ruins of St Catherine's Castle - a Henry VIII artillery fort built between 1538 and 1540. Lantic Bay, a more remote sandy cove, lies 2.9 km along the coast path.

Fowey itself is half a mile downhill - a working harbour town that still ships around 450,000 tonnes of china clay per year. The town has independent restaurants, pubs, and shops along Fore Street. The Hall Walk circular, a 4-mile route using both the Bodinnick car ferry and the Polruan passenger ferry, starts nearby. The Saints' Way long-distance footpath runs from Fowey to Padstow on the north coast.
