About this house rental
If you haven't yet discovered Fimbarr's Reach Fowey, then you are in for a treat. With the local shops, pubs, restaurants and the river estuary a short stroll away, you can leave your car behind.
Fimbarr's Reach Fowey, is a stunning four storey villa house that is beautifully laid out with a spacious, lower ground floor kitchen/pantry and dining room with a separate utility area, boot room and WC. On the ground floor is a generous living room and hall, leading to the first floor with two bedrooms and shower room and a further two bedrooms and shower room on the second floor.
There’s an appealing decked courtyard at the rear which catches the sun through the day and is a great place to sit out and dine or read a book. Fimbarr’s Reach is perfect for either a small group or families.
With stunning multicoloured cottages, perched on the hillsides leading down to the sea, the little fishing town of Fowey has lots to offer.
For you foodies, there are restaurants offering tempting local produce, along with harbourside cafes and pubs which will give you a warm Cornish welcome and a good atmosphere. For you shoppers, there is a unique collection of local shops and boutiques, a refreshing change from your standard high street. For the water-sports enthusiasts among you, the town is a haven with kayaking and canoeing, boating and sailing available along the stretch of the river.
Things To Do
For Children
There’s plenty to keep your little ones (and big ones!) busy, Adrenaline quarry, Woody’s Bike Park, Kidzworld Adventure Play, Camel Creek, Football golf, Coasteering, Bike trails and cycle hire and of course the Eden Project.
For All
The Eden Project and the Lost Gardens of Heligan are very close by with Lanhydrock House, Luxulyon Viaduct Walk and the Bodmin Railway little further on.
There are hundreds of miles of fantastic walks in Cornwall. The South West Coastal Path winds a massive 630 miles around the county. The Fowey Hall Walk is just 4 miles and is the best way to see Fowey from every angle including from the river on the Polruan and Bodinnick ferries. The Gribbin Head walk is just fabulous and takes in the country side, a lake and the coastal path and is one of our regular walks.
If you want to travel a bit further then Carnglaze Caverns, Golitha Falls, Cornish Seal Sanctuary, St Michael's Mount, Tintagel Castle and Minak Theatre are all worth considering.
Also check out the National Trust and English Heritage websites as they have a wealth of information on things to do and more.
Dogs
Cornwall is wonderfully dog friendly and that’s just one of the reasons why we love it so much. Many of the pubs welcome dogs, Nearby Par beach and Polridmouth Cove are dog friendly all year round and most other beaches allow dogs but with some peak timing restrictions.
This is just a small sample of what’s on offer but whatever you decide to do, there is something for everyone and Fimbarr’s Reach is the perfect base for you to explore from.
