Fairview is a great property with fabulous views from inside and out, a garden in sunshine all day. Be prepared for the walk from the car park and the steep slopes of the town, backing your car as close to the cottage as possible down Hockens Lane makes loading and unloading a lot easier. This is a simply great place to relax with good facilities in Polruan and without the bustle of Fowey which, nevertheless, is just a short ferry ride across the river. This was our second visit and we enjoyed it even more. ...

As a peaceful Christmas cottage to relax with family this was perfect. The location and views were delightful. Locals were friendly and a stroll to the local pub was an added bonus. I will definitely be visiting again

We had an amazing stay at Fairview! The house was beautiful, really comfortable and offered everything we could need. The views are absolutely stunning, perfect to relax and unwind. The location is lovely, nice and quiet but with Fowey just a short ferry trip away you have everything you can need. I would highly recommend this property and look forward to returning some day! Thank you The Daltons and Huey ??...

Fairview was an absolutely beautiful house with fabulous views. Polruan is quite difficult to access with very narrow roads but once you are there and parked it is easy to catch the ferry over to Fowey. The harbour is only a couple of minutes walk from the house. It is quite expensive to catch the ferry over though for a family of five! The house was very well equipped, beautifully clean and the beds were very very comfortable. You can never tire of the amazing view. The South Coast path is also on your doorstep with fantastic walking and views. We had a lovely stay!...

We're so pleased to see that you loved the house - the views really are spectacular! Catching the ferry across to explore Fowey is a wonderful way to spend the day - the fare is currently around £2.80 per adult but you can check out the up to date price and schedule on the Polruan Ferry website or Facebook page.

Polruan is a good alternative to the busier Fowey and just a ferry ride away. The house is spacious, close to the harbour and ferry and the views from all the principal rooms, and the super garden, are unbeatable. The Lugger Inn was friendly, busy and served good food. Once you have navigated the route to Bodinnick the car ferry is a great way to get to locations further west. We have put our reservation in for next year....
