Place View

Place View is a three-bedroom cottage in Bodinnick, a small hamlet on the east bank of the Fowey estuary, sleeping 6 with one bathroom. The terrace faces west across the water to the medieval town of Fowey - a view that catches the evening light directly, prices start from £836 per week.

The cottage has an open fire in the sitting room, an enclosed garden, and a dishwasher. No Wi-Fi, no washing machine, and no on-site parking - the nearest parking is a short walk away at the Bodinnick car park. No pets. The layout across three bedrooms suits a family group or three couples prepared to share one bathroom.

Readymoney Cove is 900m on foot - a sheltered sandy cove below the Fowey castle ruins, reached by a footpath through the town. Lantic Bay is 1.4 miles further along the coast path, a National Trust bay with no road access and a steep descent to the beach. The Bodinnick car ferry crosses to Fowey town in a few minutes, giving access to the town's restaurants and the Hall Walk coast path circuit.

Best for a group that wants a riverside position in the Fowey area and doesn't need Wi-Fi or in-house parking. Less suited to families with young children who need easy car access or washing facilities on site.
