Guests say
Harbourside offers stunning views over Fowey harbour and provides a comfortable, well-equipped base for a relaxing holiday. Guests consistently praise the beautiful location, the lovely house, and the ever-changing river scenery. While the steep approach and lack of a local pub are noted, most guests found the experience rewarding once settled in. Some minor maintenance issues and the absence of a welcome pack were mentioned, but overall, visitors enjoyed their stays and many expressed a desire to return.
Most guests found the property clean and well-presented, though a few noted a musty smell on arrival and suggested cleaning could be improved.
The location is highly praised for its breathtaking views and peaceful setting, though the steep road and early ferry times are noted challenges.
Guests found the house comfortable and enjoyed relaxing on the terrace, with only minor comments about the drive and steps for older visitors.
The house is generally well-equipped, but some guests mentioned missing items (like a potato peeler), minor maintenance issues, and an ageing cooker.
Several guests noted the absence of a welcome pack, which is sometimes provided at other properties, but gifts or extras are not guaranteed.

Great views, road up the steep u turn to the house is for confident drivers only. The house could do with freshening up, smelt musty on arrival. Cleaning could be better.

Lovely place to watch the world go by in the harbour of Fowey. Even in bad weather to watch the harbour activities was a pleasure. House was amazing and clean. everything you needed.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Harbourside.On a downside we were not informed at the time of booking that there was a very steep hill and hairpin bend to get us up to the cottage. This took some getting used to.Also this is the first rental property that I have booked where we did not receive a welcome pack.
