River Watch

River Watch is a three-bedroom house spread over three floors in Polruan village, sleeping six across two bathrooms. The bedrooms include a king-size, a twin, and a third room behind a glass partition off the sitting room - an unusual layout that suits a family travelling with younger children or a guest who wants a degree of separation. The property has accessible facilities and parking for two medium cars.

Readymoney Cove is 600m away on foot - a sheltered sandy beach at the mouth of the Fowey estuary. The passenger ferry to Fowey runs from the village quay; the crossing takes around 5 minutes and connects to Fowey's restaurants and shops. Lantic Bay, a National Trust cove with no car access, is 2km further along the coast path.

This suits couples or families wanting a village base on the Fowey estuary with easy water access. Dog-friendly (1 dog). The property has no washing machine, so less good for stays longer than a week. Dishwasher and enclosed garden terrace included.

The three-floor layout gives the property more vertical separation between sleeping and living areas than most comparable houses in Polruan. Accessible facilities make it one of the few options in this part of the estuary that works for guests with mobility requirements. Parking for two medium cars is useful given the village lanes. With a 4.6 rating from 16 reviews, the property has a consistent track record. Lansallos Beach, 4.2km along the coast, adds a longer drive option for days when Readymoney Cove is busy in peak season.
