“'A wonderful place to relax' We had a lovely stay in Serendipity, it was a surprise holiday for my partner, we love Fowey, this is our second visit this year!”

...

Having seen a few comments recently about the cottage, I can confirm that there has been some maintenance done in Serendipity. The bed was so comfortable, the white bedding with the lovely fur throw makes it so cosy for this time of year. The bathroom looked very clean and we didn’t have a problem with the towels. The kitchen is one of the best stocked kitchens we’ve seen in a holiday let. Serendipity is a great little cottage for 2, very cosy and warm, tastefully furnished to high standards meant we thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Fowey. Good places to eat: The Ship, Pintxo and Sam’s. We had a couple of good walks – The Hall walk from Bodinnick and the walk from Readymoney beach along the coastal path to Polkerris. We will be back again soon to Serendipity, thank you!

Have made a phone call to explain, bedding and towels smelt musty, shelf over towel rack missing, towel rail coming away from wall and no corkscrew

Thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback for your stay at Serendipity. Our cleaners have assured me that the bedding for your stay came straight from the laundry. We will continue to check bedding to ensure it is fresh for our guests.The over towel rail glass shelf was recently broken by a guest and for health and safety reasons we are looking for a suitable replacement. In the meantime, there is another shelf and plenty of towel hooks as well as a newly installed heated towel rail.The kitchen does have a corkscrew, so we will check if it has been removed or was just not found and replace if necessary. Your feedback helps us to maintain excellent standards at Serendipity. Owner relations

“Hi nothing went wrong just that the property, although very sweet, is starting to look a little in need of tlc.”

Black mold in the bathroom, bathmats very stained. We both had backache as the mattress not great and the pillows need replacing. Just needs a general deep clean and freshening up. Also very tricky door lock some days it took 10 mins to lock. The booking itself was very straight forward and we had all the information needed. Kind regards.

Thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback for your stay at Serendipity. We have been in contact with the cleaners to ensure that particular attention is made to bath mats and other linen supplied. Mattress and pillows can be a very personal choice. Many guests have commented about the comfy beds, so we are sorry that they weren't to your preference.We are happy that in other regards, you had an enjoyable stay. Your feedback helps to ensure that Serendipity continues to offer a wonderful experience for our guests, Owner relations

Serendipity And The Shell Seekers

These two beautifully restored cottages lie in the glorious surroundings of Fowey, a fascinating village which has something for guests of all ages. You will be spoilt for choice between the two retreats, each designed in a luxurious fashion, divided between a cosy lounge, dining area, and a modern kitchen, which can be enjoyed morning through to evening. Whether you are gathering with your loved ones around the fire, or settling down for dinner after the sunsets, you will look forward to returning here, taking in the immaculate décor and its hidden charm. Serendipity (Ref. 984523) boasts an interesting history once upon a time selling and exhibiting the famous Shallow Pool dolls. Shell Seekers (Ref: 984525) benefits from a lovely outside area to the rear, a tiered garden on a number of different levels; the top most of which has lovely views up the river. The properties are only a short walk (approx 5 min) into the centre of town, whilst the harbour, shops and restaurants rest in the opposite direction, and only a minute’s walk is the Caffa Mill Car park and the Car and Passenger Ferry over to Bodinnick. The quaint cottages and a mixture of medieval and Georgian historic buildings resting upon cobbled walkways all add to the enchanting atmosphere. With a fine selection of quality shops, galleries, restaurants and pubs, Fowey really is a vibrant destination. There are many family attractions in the area, including Mevagissey and Charlestown harbours, the Eden Project and the Lost Gardens of Heligan.

About the location

FOWEY

Lostwithiel 8 miles; Polperro 8 miles

This small town and civil parish lies at the mouth of the River Fowey in south Cornwall. The estuary of the River Fowey forms a natural harbour, which enabled the town to become an important trading centre. There is a wealth of things to see and do in and around the harbour. Whether you enjoy getting out on the water, playing golf or finding out more about the history of the area, you are sure to find something to suit the whole family. Harbour cruises leave the Town Quay regularly in season giving you a superb view of the town, but for the more adventurous, rent your own self-drive boat, kayak or paddle board and explore the waters for yourselves! The town is steeped in history, so why not join a guided tour of either Fowey or Polruan? You can even join an owl experience, play golf, go horse riding or pursue your artistic talents with pottery or painting courses. There is the aquarium, museum and St Catherine's Castle, as well as Readymoney Cove, all waiting to be explored. If you get peckish, or fancy something thirst quenching along the way, there is a plethora of pubs, inns, cafes and restaurants to choose. Whenever you plan to visit, keep a look out for the festivals, fairs, markets and theatre performances on throughout the year. There are many family attractions in the area, including Mevagissey and Charlestown harbours, the Eden Project and the Lost Gardens of Heligan. Discover them all from this fantastic base!
