5 min walk into town - estuary views

Tastefully styled to reflect the nautical inspiration of the area with crisp white and sailor blue walls, vintage Cornish artwork, anchor and stripe soft furnishings. A cosy sitting room is perfect to relax in after a day on the water. Lead through to the separate kitchen with circular dining table all set for family meals and holiday living. Three beautiful bedrooms over two higher floors continue the nautical theme with sumptuous beds and white linens complemented by striped floor rugs and cushions. This coastal cottage is of a high standard and well equipped for your stay.
The kitchen door leads out to a characterful private courtyard garden with wooden dining table and chairs, lovely Fowey River views enable you to check for fair winds and calm seas! This private al fresco space really does capture the morning sun so breakfast in the garden is on the cards. The Hideout really is a fabulous coastal retreat suitable for families and couples alike. It is located on Lostwithiel Street in the heart of Fowey so everything really is on your holiday doorstep. Unlike many of the streets in Fowey, Lostwithiel Street does allow vehicular access so you can conveniently pull up right outside the property to unload. Fowey is nestled between Looe and Mevagissey on the south Cornish coast, an designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty with its natural harbour making it a mecca for talented yachtsmen. This once sleepy town is now alive with bustle from the boutique shops, chic cafes, exhibiting galleries, restaurants and fine dining hotels. Take a gentle stroll along the Esplanade or don your walking boots for the popular Hall walk bringing you neatly back to a local pub. This delightful Cornish harbour town really does offer something for everyone to enjoy all year round. The Hideout is a real gem be it family, friends or couples looking to immerse themselves in traditional Cornish life.

Perfect getaway!
The Hideaway is exceptionally well cared for, with outstanding cleanliness especially for a holiday let that takes pets. The house is a superb location for enjoying all Fowey has to offer. Despite no parking outside, loading worked well and parking is a 5 minute walk away at Hanson Road. We are a couple who like plenty of space so wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to couples with furry friends and would 100% stay again.

Should have brought my tools
A very old and nicely situated cottage. It must have been a long season as there were a few niggly maintenance issues that needed attending to. For instance the front door was stuck solid and took a hefty shoulder to get it open . The lock on the back door didnt work either. I fixed by a purchase of wd40 and silicon spray. If I'd brought my tools I could have fixed it permanently. Cleanliness was just ok, quite a few cob webs. Cottage is situated on a steep hill and vehicle access is very difficult with no parking close by.

Perfect place to be
Beautiful cottage, spotlessly clean. Welcome package including fresh coffee. Perfect location and wonderful views. We all enjoyed every minute of our stay and will be looking to book again in a couple of years. Thank you to the owners.

Great location
The Hideout is a great location for exploring Fowey, Polruan and the surrounding coastline. The house (although in need of a lick of paint) is well presented and provided everything we needed.
