This is an exceptionally comfortable and well equipped house with stunning views - the perfect spot to escape from it all. The parking permit was much appreciated as access into and out of the village is (as you would expect) somewhat precarious, but you do still need to be reasonably fit and active to get around, particularly when loading and unloading on arrival/departure. The house and location more than made up for any slight inconvenience with that though, and we would whole heartedly recommend!!...

If you want a get away from it all holiday and leave the car for the duration parked it’s entirely possible staying here. There’s a little local shop and a bakery, two pubs. The walking is fabulous. Views across the estuary are stunning.
Mrs Chapman-Brown June 2021
Fair view Cottage is absolutely beautiful. Spotlessly clean and very much a home from home. The views are spectacular and the bed very comfortable. It was lovely to lie in bed and watch the boats coming and going in the harbour. It is also very well equipped so you really can go to town in the kitchen if that is your thing! I would definitely recommend arriving in the daylight, especially if you have any eyesight or mobility issues and bringing food with you for the first night as due to Covid you need to book ahead for restaurants. There are some really beautiful walks straight out of Polruan but again, some of them are challenging so make sure you can handle them. We had a lovely, relaxing week in a beautiful home and can wholeheartedly recommend it. ...

This is a wonderful cottage with amazing views. However, I would say it's not for older, slightly disabled people as the walk from the car to the cottage entails taking luggage down a very steep slope with steps and, even worse, pulling luggage back up again on departure....
