A good location on the river, very convenient for shops, restaurants and nice walks close by. Cottage is well-equipped for the most part but a little run down. It could use some attention to details, especially the terrace area outside. Parking was very difficult. ...

We're so pleased that you enjoyed this lovely little cottage's location, but sorry to hear you had some difficulty with the private parking (there is additional on road parking too). We visited early this season and felt that the cottage was well furnished in keeping with it's age and style, but not run down. The terrace can get a bit weathered being right over the river, so we'll ask the housekeeper to have a tidy up of that area. Tanya, Customer Support...

The fotos and information about the bedrooms does not correspond with the reality. The bedroom on the groundfloor does not have a window, which is important to know. the second bedroom with the two single beds is very small, with a very small window, fotos show differently. Very disappointing. The rental costs are quite hight, therefore our expectations were high as well. The cleaniless of the Cottage was not good. And we did not see the housekeeper at all. The situation of the Cottage is very nice. The town Lostwithiel is a good place to stay....

Thanks for your review - it's great to hear that you enjoyed the location of the cottage which is certainly very special, but we're really sorry that you were disappointed with a few aspects of Old Quay Cottage. Bedroom one is on the ground-floor and although it has no standard window it does boast a lovely skylight window set into the ceiling as mentioned in the description. Bedroom three has twin beds with a small cottage style window which we've tried to portray in the photos of the property. It's a real shame that you noticed a few cleanliness issues and we'll certainly forward this to the housekeeper for her attention at the next changeover - we're really sorry for any oversight on this occasion. The housekeeper isn't able to meet all guests on arrival but her number appears within the Cottage Information Folder and on the Arrival Details from Classic Cottages should you have needed to speak with her.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Old Quay Cottage. The location is superb - right by the river and close to many of the local attractions, such as The Eden Project and the Camel Trail. We were also impressed with the decor of the property, not the usual blandness which seems to be encouraged by so many holiday cottage businesses, instead we felt as though we were staying in someone else’s comfortable home. The flagstones are beautiful and the aga easy to use and very homely. ...

A charming cottage in a great location for Fowey and south east Cornwall.

This is a great cottage in a lovely setting and location, although a bit close to the other cottages in the courtyard. Being set on the bank of the River Fowey is tranquil and relaxing. The railway station is a short walk from the cottage with easy access to Plymouth and even though you can hear the trains going through, it's not intrusive. You'll hear more noise from the ducks and birds during the night! You may even hear an owl! Parking is a bit tight as you're in a courtyard, but you have a designated spot and if you could park any closer to the front door, you would be inside the cottage! Makes for easy unpacking and packing. The cottage is very well kitted out with lots of pots and pans, cutlery, utensils and crockery galore! The bed in the master bedroom is quite comfy and the blanket throws that are available to use are quite luxurious! We were here in March, so made a fire every night...cosy! We went to the Royal Oak Inn our first night and cooked in the remaining nights. Had an enjoyable lunch at Colgero's and there's lots of lovely little shops along Fore Street. You might even see a fishmonger selling fresh fish from his van across the way from the Co-op on one of the days as we did. Would highly recommend the butcher shop. We got venison steaks, ribeyes, bacon and sausage and everything was delicious! We had a couple of minor issues when we arrived, but they were handled quickly. The housekeeping team will make sure that your stay is a comfortable one. The only negative was that the week went by so quickly and we had to leave!...
