Castle House Studio - Three Bedroom Cottage, Sleeps 6

NEW PROPERTY - available to book from mid June 2026 onwards. AT A GLANCE... Fabulous views located by the water in Polruan overlooking the harbour and across towards Fowey Garage parking for 1 car included! Terrace with views Sleeps 6 (see accommodation details below for detailed description) Castle House Studio in the heart of Polruan will most likely be, one of the most unique and memorable self-catering accommodation choices you will have ever made.  Built in the garden of Castle House, this cleverly thought through property has been designed to evoke the charm and character of a seafaring vessel even using original teak doors and windows from the now retired steam ocean liner, the Kenya Castle.  Occupying the entire lower floor level, each room has been designed to maximise the connection between your accommodation and the neighbouring ocean with porthole windows and plenty of bespoke woodwork adding character and charm. In addition, this amazing space offers a high level of comfort with all the usual appliances provided for your convenience. The expansive, uninterrupted views out across the harbour to Fowey and up stream towards Bodinnick are ever changing and many hours can (and no doubt will be), spent watching the wonderful moving nautical picture taking place right in front of you! The village of Polruan has a couple of charming, traditional pubs as well as village store and lovely cafe. The foot passenger ferry across to Fowey operates all year round with later crossing times during the season. The car ferry across to Fowey from Polruan leaves from Bodinnick (3 miles away) and again operates all year round - (both services are likely not to operate on Christmas Day and Boxing Day).  Nearby Lantic Bay beach (known as the hidden gem) is a fantastic beach owned by the National Trust and is just over a mile from Polruan.  Dog friendly all year round, this wonderfully sheltered cove with golden sand is a terrific place to enjoy some much needed downtime.   Bodinnick was home to Daphne du Maurier and her family and is where she wrote her first novel, The Loving Spirit.  The family home, Ferryside, is unmistakeable from the water with its famous blue shutters and cream walls.  Once you have enjoyed your time in Fowey with its bustling high street with pubs, cafes and restaurants, heading back across the water to the more quiet Polruan is what so many of its loyal visitors love.  Polruan has a couple of small beaches (Quay beach and Back beach), the latter being the better of the two. Whilst small, this largely sandy beach provides a welcome sandy spot for families.  Please be aware, that the beaches are tidal and will disappear at high tide! The picturesque village Polperro and its lively neighbour Looe are a short 6 and 10 mile drive from Polruan. Further afield are the must visit attractions - Lost Gardens of Heligan and of course The Eden Project which are 24 and 17 miles respectively from Polruan.
