Fairlight House

Fairlight House is a three-storey, one-bedroom cottage in Polruan village, sleeping 2 in a double bedroom with views across the Fowey estuary. The ground floor has a wood burner snug for cool evenings, and the first floor lounge retains an original fireplace as a focal point.

Readymoney Cove beach is 0.7 km from the front door, giving quick access to the sheltered sand and the South West Coast Path heading east. The passenger ferry to Fowey runs from steps near the property, connecting guests to the town's restaurants, independent shops, and St Catherine's Castle without a car journey.

Accessibility features are included throughout. The property is dog-friendly with parking for one vehicle and comes with a dishwasher. A village shop, pub and café are all within easy reach of the front door. The cottage is ideal for couples or single travellers who want village life on the south coast combined with easy access to the wider estuary and coastal path without driving. Less good for those requiring sea-level access or a garden.

Two dogs are not accepted here - the dog limit is 2, and the accessible layout covers all three storeys. Lantic Bay, a National Trust cove, is 1.9 km away on foot via the South West Coast Path, and Lansallos Beach is 4 km further along the coast. Bodinnick, the nearest village with a ferry crossing to the road above Fowey, is just across the estuary. With a 4.7 guest rating from 12 reviews, Fairlight House has a consistent track record for a one-bedroom property in this price bracket.
