Comfortable Group Retreat | 1053462SK

Resting just moments away from the picturesque River Fowey in South Cornwall, discover the large Grade Two listed townhouse of Foye Old Exchange, amidst the hustle and bustle of Fowey town. Set over three floors and with six bedrooms, this holiday accommodation is ideal for bringing large groups of families and friends together to explore this corner of Cornwall, home to a vast array of things to see and do. Enter into the former telephone exchange building and be welcomed into a real home from home, containing everything you could possibly need for a self-catering holiday. Here, you have a choice of two sitting rooms to catch your rest within after a fun-filled afternoon; the snug is ideal for younger guests of the group to gather, whilst the larger sitting room is great for the adults to enjoy a glass of something whilst tuning into the TV. From here, discover the well-equipped kitchen, where a range of quality appliances arranged in a contemporary assortment are certain to entice a spot of home-cooking and the ample preparation space is great for packing up a picnic ahead of the next day’s trip to the coast. The dining room offers a space for all of your loved ones to gather to relish in some catch-up time before tucking into a dish and toasting to a wonderful holiday in Cornwall. Concluding the interior of the dwelling are the well-appointed bedrooms, situated across the first and second floor and have been arranged to suit the needs of any party make up. On the first floor you will find the master bedroom, which contains an impressive four-poster bed and en-suite and two double bedrooms with en-suite shower rooms. All en-suites have been refurbished for the 2022 season with new shower enclosures and flooring. Upstairs there are two twin bedrooms and a single bedroom, served by a family bathroom which is accessed via one of the twin rooms. During the summer months, look forward to dining alfresco within the rear courtyard and enjoying the final moments of sunshine during the evening. Begin your Cornish adventure by meandering through the winding streets and alleyways of Fowey, where you will be delighted to find a range of shops, fine-dining restaurants, takeaways and traditional Cornish pubs. Once you are refuelled, head to the Town Quay to hop on board a leisurely harbour cruise to soak up the views of the town, or if you are feeling slightly more adventurous rent your own self-drive boat, kayak or stand-up paddleboard and explore the estuary on your own accord. Other attractions, which are situated within striking distance of the cottage, include Fowey Museum and the majestic St Catherine's Castle, a 16th century fort situated at the harbour entrance built by Henry VIII, or choose to walk the famous South West Coastal Path to find stunning beaches and hidden coves. A trip to Cornwall would not be complete without visiting the famous Eden Project or The Lost Gardens Heligan, contemporary gardens promising wonderful family days out. Alternatively, spend the day exploring the tall ships at Charlestown or cross the estuary to visit the National Trust-owned Lantivet Bay. Foye Old Exchange is the ideal base for exploring this wonderful corner of Cornwall.
