Amazing place, beautiful views. We loved staying here. The beds were comfy, kitchen was great- very clean. The photos show exactly what it is like. Great location, easy walking in to Fowey and ReadyMoney beach- room to store paddleboard and canoe. No negatives about the property - it was perfect for us! (Although be aware that Fowey is hilly and as all reviews state there are many steps up to the property and the hand rail is broken).

We spent a fantastic week at Anchor Loft - the property was beautifully presented, comfortable, welcoming and really well equipped. The location was ideal and I enjoyed sitting on the balcony or window seat looking out across the beautiful view. Looking forward to many more lovely holidays here.
