Guests say
Harbour's Reach in Fowey is a well-regarded cottage, praised for its superb location and beautiful views. Guests appreciate the fully stocked kitchen and the property's cleanliness. The layout is ideal for groups, and thoughtful touches like welcome biscuits have been noted. While some minor issues with furnishings and outdoor maintenance are mentioned, the overall sentiment is highly positive, with many guests wishing to return.
The property is consistently described as clean, with one review specifically noting it was 'so clean and smelt great'. However, one guest mentioned the outdoor area by the hot tub needed sprucing up, indicating a slight deduction in the cleanliness score.
The location is universally praised for being perfect, convenient, and within walking distance to the town centre and local amenities. The proximity to the Harbour hotel and the views from the property are also highlighted as major positives.
The property is generally considered comfortable and well-appointed. However, there is a mention of the settee showing its age, which suggests that while comfort is high, there is room for improvement in this area.
Facilities are well-regarded, especially the kitchen being fully stocked. However, guests have noted a lack of wine glasses, issues with the TV not working, and a need for more pans. The garage facility is also mentioned, though it requires careful manoeuvring.
The property owners have been commended for their thoughtfulness, with mentions of welcome biscuits and a well-thought-out house. It should be noted that such personal touches, while appreciated, may vary and are not guaranteed for every stay.

We had a lovely holiday, house is in a great position close to the town and Readymoney Cove. The outside areas of the house particularly the area by the hot tub could do with sprucing up, the table and chairs were dusty and dirty on arrival. We swept the decking ourselves. Only appeared to be one wine glass that wasn't plastic, not sure if we missed the others? Can understand the need for these outside but would like glass to use inside the house. Not many pans if you want to cook meals.
