Ferrymans Wharf

Ferrymans Wharf is a second-floor open-plan apartment in central Fowey, sleeping four across a king-size and a double bedroom. The living space faces the River Fowey, with water views from the main windows and the sounds of the estuary below.

The apartment is positioned directly above Fowey's waterfront, with the town's independent shops, galleries and seafood restaurants within a couple of minutes on foot. Readymoney Cove, a sheltered sandy beach with direct South West Coast Path access, is 0.9 miles away along the quayside. Lantic Bay, a more remote National Trust cove, is 1.5 miles out.

Both bedrooms have good storage, and the kitchen includes a dishwasher and washing machine, making the apartment practical for a long weekend or full week. The flat-to-street entry suits those who prefer to avoid steps, and dogs are not accepted. No parking is available at the property, so guests typically arrive by train to Fowey Harbour ferry or use the town's pay car park. Best for couples and small families who want a Fowey base without a hire car; less good for those who need on-site parking.

The apartment has 15 guest reviews with a 5-star rating, which is notable for a property sleeping 4 in this position above the harbour. Lantic Bay, a National Trust cove with limited access, is 1.5 miles out and gives an alternative to Readymoney Cove for a longer walk. Lansallos Beach is 2.5 miles further along the South West Coast Path. With two bedrooms across a king-size and a double, the layout works for two couples or a couple with older children.
