Fowey cottage with River Fowey views, wood burner and a walk to Readymoney Cove

Number Forty is a town-centre cottage in Fowey, sleeping four across a double and a king-size room with two bathrooms - useful when both rooms are in use at once. The cottage looks over the River Fowey from inside and from a rear patio, in the middle of the harbour town rather than on its edge.

A feature fireplace and wood burner sit alongside underfloor heating, so the cottage stays warm through the colder months. WiFi, a dishwasher, garden and barbecue are included. There is no washing machine, hot tub, pool or EV charging point, and dogs are not accepted here.

Readymoney Cove is 900 metres away, below St Catherine's Castle. Lantic Bay is 1.4 miles from the cottage and Lansallos Beach 2.6 miles. The Fowey to Polruan passenger ferry crosses in under five minutes, and the Hall Walk, a 4-mile circular route using both the Polruan and Bodinnick ferries, starts nearby. Bodinnick itself is the closest listed town.

Guide prices start from £813 a night. Number Forty holds a 4.8 out of 5 rating from eight reviews, with cleanliness, equipment, comfort and location all scoring 5.

**Best for:** two couples or a family of four wanting two bathrooms, river views and a genuinely central Fowey position with the harbour and ferries on foot.

**Less good for:** dog owners, guests needing on-site parking or laundry, or anyone wanting an EV charging point.
