silver rock

Sleeps 6
3 Bedrooms
From £260 per night

Overview

A three bedroom apartment located on the top two floors of a Victorian townhouse, with sweeping views across the Fowey Estuary, and just a short stroll from the centre of the pretty port town. Silver Rock can be booked on its own, or alongside its sister property, Blue Rock, for which there is an adjoining door. Taking the whole house will accommodate up to eight people and is an excellent option for larger groups who still want their own privacy.

The Living, Kitchen & Dining Areas

Enter this Cornish hideaway from the courtyard garden via a ground floor hallway, from where you head straight upstairs and are met with vast views across Fowey, the estuary and beyond. Interiors are snug and furnished with decor that nods to the property’s Cornish roots – expect knotted rope light features and bespoke wooden headboards.

There’s a modern, fully equipped kitchen with an island beside a bright bay window for counter top dining seating up to 8 people. The adjacent open-plan living area centres around the feature chimney breast. With ceilings that open up to the eaves, this is a light, spacious and characterful living area with a Smart TV and a coal-effect gas fire.

The Bedrooms & The Bathrooms

There are two bedrooms on the first floor: the first has a super-king size bed (with the option of twins if preferred) and lovely sea views, the second is nicknamed ‘the cabin’ and has two locally crafted single beds (bed guards area available for little ones). The second also doubles up as a kids snug room with a TV. Next door is a shared bathroom with a large walk in shower, stone basin and original arched window.

At the top of the house you’ll find the loft-style master suite with a king-size bed designed by local craftsmen, more fabulous Fowey Estuary views, and en-suite bathroom with a separate bath and shower. The built-in daybed makes for the perfect cosy nook to watch the world go by.

Outside

From the open-plan living room and kitchen, there are glass doors that open up onto a decked roof terrace and outdoor seating area. Here, the views become even more breathtaking, stretching all the way from the Fowey Estuary and across to Polruan. With a prime south westerly position, you can catch both the morning and afternoon sunshine.

Dogs

One dog is allowed at Silver Rock for an additional fee of £50. There’s an outdoor shower located in the courtyard that comes in handy for washing down salty coats. Please note that dogs are not allowed on any of the furniture or in the bedrooms.

Welcome Hamper

A welcome hamper filled with local goodies will be waiting for you on arrival including milk, butter, jam, fresh sourdough and a bottle of wine.

The Surroundings 

Set in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty on Cornwall’s southeast coast, Fowey is the kind of harbour town that’s easy to fall for. Perched on the banks of the Fowey Estuary, with boats bobbing on the water and colourful houses tumbling down its winding lanes, it feels wonderfully historic, charming and just a little removed from the Cornish crowds.

Meander through the pretty lanes before following the esplanade to Readymoney Cove, a small, sheltered stretch of sand perfect for paddling, shell collecting and castle building. Back in town, catch the ferry across the estuary, watch boats come and go from the natural harbour, or settle somewhere for a leisurely lunch and an ice cream.
