Carnethic House - One Acre View Fowey

This elegant, first floor apartment, one of several in this grand house, is set in landscaped gardens and has a shared, indoor, heated swimming pool with a retractable roof. One Acre View has a large balcony accessed directly off the living room, where you can enjoy a sundowner with views across the well-stocked gardens and beyond. A stroll down through Fowey will bring you to the picturesque waterside and the historic centre with its meandering lanes full of craft and gift shops, galleries, quaint cafés and outstanding restaurants. There are many coastal and inland walks that can be taken from Fowey. A popular walk with locals and visitors is the ‘Hall Walk’ which hugs the shoreline and climbs through the trees across the estuary. It has many beautiful vantage points to enjoy the views out to sea and across to the town. The historic seafaring town of Fowey is famous for the home of the writer Daphne Du Maurier and the location of the annual Fowey Royal Regatta in August and the Fowey Festival of Arts and Literature in May. It is a mecca for water sports enthusiasts from sailing and sea fishing to kayaking up the river - Fowey has it all! Coastal walks and boat trips along the river and out to sea, where you may spot dolphins and seals, can be taken from the quay, as can a ferry across the bay to Mevagissey. The pretty little beach at the quaintly named Readymoney Cove is a short stroll away and the perfect spot in which to explore the rock pools, go crabbing or simply lie on the beach! There are many National Trust gardens and houses in the area, as well as the Eden Project and the Lost Gardens of Heligan. Cycling, surfing and golf are all available locally. Beach 1 mile. Shop 500 yards, pub ¾ mile and restaurants 1 mile.
