Fowey Harbour Hotel

If you’re looking for a laidback town with plenty of scenic architecture and an interesting fishing history, then Fowey is the place to visit. There's plenty of places to eat and drink and things to do. We'd recommend eating at Sam's Fowey and visiting Fowey Maritime Museum, or taking a short Ferry ride over to Polruan (via the regular passenger ferry). Only a short walk is readymoney cove too, which is a lovely beach for swimming and sunbathing!

Mevagissey

Narrow streets and steep valley sides lead down to the centre of the old Mevagissey where the distinctive twin harbour provides a safe haven for the many fishing boats that land their daily catch of skate, lobster, plaice and sole. In typical picture postcard style, pubs, cafes, galleries and shops cluster around the harbour walls and line the pretty streets. Named after two Irish saints, St Meva and St Issey, the village dates back to at least 1313 and during the 1800s Mevagissey prospered on the back of the abundant source of pilchards out to sea. Around the maze of streets you’ll find plenty of seafood restaurants that the village is renowned for and there is nothing more sublimely Cornish than tucking into some local scallops and mackerel and ending the evening with a walk along the harbour wall with lights of the village twinkling on the water.
