LOCATION
Fowey is regarded as one of the most attractive of Cornwall’s waterside towns, situated on the South Cornish coast. The natural harbour is a popular destination for visiting yachtsmen, as well as holidaying tourists, and remains a busy working commercial port, including for visiting cruise ships. The town provides a wide range of shops and businesses catering for both the tourist market and day to day needs, as well as restaurants, boutique hotels and public houses, with primary and secondary schools, a cottage hospital and leisure centre all in close proximity to the town centre. The immediate area is surrounded by many miles of delightful coast and countryside, much of which is in the ownership of the National Trust. Nearby local attractions include the world renowned Eden Project, Lanhydrock House and the Lost Gardens of Heligan. This strategic location benefits from high levels of footfall from both tourists and residents, particularly due to its proximity to ferry services, car park, walking trails, and local attractions. The Bodinnick Ferry provides a vital link across the river, facilitating easy access to the surrounding countryside, including Lerryn and Polruan. Larger towns such as St Austell and Bodmin are easily accessible via the A38 and A30, with mainline rail services available at Par and St Austell.
