Local Area Information

FOWEY is the ‘Troy Town’ of Sir Arthur Quiller-Couch’s stories and has always had an affiliation with writers including Daphne Du Maurier [The Loving Spirit was set in the Boatyard at Polruan], Leo Walmsley [Paradise Creek is Pont Creek] and Kenneth Graeme [supposedly gained inspiration for the Wind in the Willows from some of the parts up river] to name but a few. It has a long and interesting history including being involved in the Smuggling trade, being attacked by foreign enemies [hence the Castles or Blockhouses at the harbour entrance still existing which once supported the protective chain to stop unauthorised entry] and still retains many of the old buildings so an exploration down a side alley often reveals an unexpected character property.
The harbour is one of the finest natural harbours in the world and affords excellent facilities for a number of water sporting activities. It is a busy deep water commercial port and ships from all over the world pass by your window - bring your binoculars and try to identify where they come from by the flag they fly!
Large areas of the surrounding cliffs and countryside are administered by the National Trust and there are many walks to enjoy including sections of the Cornwall Coast Path and the Saints Way [Fowey to Padstow]. Readymoney Cove at the harbour entrance is a nice sandy beach and there are a number of other coves to use and explore.
All day to day needs can be obtained in the town from the butcher, baker, fishmonger and grocer. There is also a good selection of other shops for souvenirs and other items. The town is extremely well served for eating out, ranging from somewhere for a cream tea or a bar snack, to a gourmet meal.
