Fisherman's Cottage in the heart of Polruan - WITH WIFI & PARKING | Cottage in Fowey
2 Bedroom Cottage in Polruan, Fowey
Lilac Cottage is a stone built two bedroom fisherman's cottage. It has been contemporarily renovated whilst still retaining its charm and feel of a coastal cottage. It offers a comfortable base to explore the magnificent Cornish coastline. We have deliberately chosen not to allow pets, as although we know many people love their four-legged friends, we want to ensure that those who are not so keen are welcomed to a pet-free zone!
On entering Lilac Cottage you will find an open-plan kitchen/living area offering a fully fitted kitchen including integrated dishwasher, fridge & oven with grill, ceramic touch hob, extractor hood & microwave. Should you decide to cook, one can see across the Fowey estuary and the boats sailing on it!
The living area (looking out towards the courtyard garden) has an eating area for 4 persons - small table with bench seating either side and a comfy seating area including sofa, beech framed armchair & small armless upholstered window chair. A traditional cast iron woodburning stove is the centerpiece for lighting during the cold winter months although a wall-mounted panel radiator is available for use. A small flat screen television & DVD player is also available.
A small but fairly steep turned staircase with handrail & rope bannister takes you to the first floor....
The first floor offers two bedrooms; one being a double room with built in wardrobe (overlooking the courtyard garden & village), the other offering a 3ft single bed with another 3ft pull-out adult bed under should it be required. This bed may be raised to the same level as the first. This room also has a built in wardrobe and overlooks the stunning Fowey estuary. Both bedrooms have space-saving stripped-pine sliding doors. The simple but contemporary renovated bathroom offers an electric shower, small sink, w.c. and electric towel rail. In addition, there is underfloor heating for those cold winter months (available between October-April).
To the front of the property is a small contained paved outside area suitable for relaxing for those all important drinks & 'al-fresco' dining. At the end of the paved area is an outbuilding which contains a washing machine, folding garden furniture and storage facilities should you be bringing your paddleboard or storing those muddy boots!
With this cottage also comes a dedicated parking space within the village (approximately 5-10 minutes walk - depending on how quickly one walks up the hill!) thereby avoiding any car parking charges. There is space outside the cottage to unload/load a vehicle prior to moving it to the parking space provided. There is parking on the Quay (2 mins from the cottage) but this is payable, limited in size and cannot be booked in advance.
We are pleased to offer free wifi at the cottage for all that can't be without their devices! The public house in the village also offers this free to its customers.
For those that enjoy walking, walks can start immediately from outside the property; Hall Walk, through National Trust woodland, along the Estuary to Boddinick & the car ferry across to Fowey (as a foot passenger) & then back on the Polruan ferry - a great circular walk. Alternatively, turn left & walk up over the cliffs following the coastal path to Talland Bay & Polperro where the bus service stops on its way back to Polruan
Finally, for those who follow the 'Poldark' series, some of the key locations can be easily reached. Charlestown has been used for tall sail boat settings (45 minutes away), the National Trust's Levant Mine (which doubles as the rolling mill where Poldark's copper is processed) is 1.5 hours away and St Agnes famed for Poldark's horseback gallops is 1 hour away towards Cornwall's north coast. In addition, Bodmin Moor that is the setting for Poldark's home is 30 minutes away. Please note timings are approximate and are made by car.
The Eden Project is 40 minutes away and now provides excellent facilities as a concert venue for well known bands and singers (cross via car ferry from Boddinick to Fowey). The Lost Gardens of Heligan and National Trust Lanhydrock are also well worth a visit & Bodmin Jail offers something for all ages.
