Ferryman’s
Cottage, Fowey, Cornwall
From
the cottage two levels of patio/decking view directly across to this view of
the Bodinnick Ferry and Daphne du Maurier's Ferryside.
The
principal bedroom and another also share the view. From the lower deck there is
access to the beach - but you'll need to swim at high tide.
This
spacious Victorian water fronting house is set in an enviable position
overlooking the river, near the Ferry to Bodinnick. There is a patio, balcony
and delightful sheltered terrace over the river with access to the slipway and
water. The property has a mooring and is a short distance from Caffa Mill Car
and Dinghy Park and a level five minute walk from the town centre.
Near
the waterfront, antique shops, restaurants, chandlers and historic pubs jostle
for space. There are architectural gems in the tiny streets that twist and
tumble down the hillside towards the estuary: St Fimbarrus Church, founded in
the 6th century, and Place, after 660 years still the seat of the Treffry
family. But it is in Fowey's extended family - the community of little towns
and villages linked to it by the river - that is perennial fascination lies.
These include Lostwithiel and nearby Restormel Castle, Lerryn, Golant,
Bodinnick, Pont at the head of its wooded "pill" and Polruan.
