The West Country / Cornwall region


Pronounced Foy to rhyme with Joy! This historic coastal town is located on the south coast of Cornwall between Looe and Mevagissey and is also a commercial seaport where china clay is exported.
Designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Fowey has much to offer with something for everyone. It is a natural harbour and is a haven for yachtsmen - Regatta Week in August is a must for sailing enthusiasts!
There are many beautiful walks from a gentle stroll along the Esplanade on a warm summer's evening to hiking over the cliffs to seek out secluded beaches - or catch the popular passenger ferry to Polruan and follow the Hall Walk to Boddinick (where you can obtain refreshments at The Old Ferry Inn) and then catch the car ferry back across the river.
Fowey is a very special place and has been home to many famous people, most notably Daphne Du Maurier spent most of her life here and many of her stories and books were inspired and based on local life.
Award winning restaurants, publs, cafes and shops to cater for all tastes and desires are nearby. There is also a small supermarket, fishmongers, butchers, chemist, post office etc - so there really is no need to use the car!
The Fowey area
The Daphne Du Maurier Festival is held in May of each year - a sparkling 10 days of talks, concerts, guided walks and free entertainment.
Regatta Week in August is one of Britain's premier sailing events!
The Eden Project, Monkey Sanctuary and Charlestown Shipwreck & Heritage Centre are just an example of the various attractions that a just a short drive away.
