The Salt Loft is a well appointed, conveniently situated apartment which is located right within the heart of Fowey, offering the perfect escape for two. It is tucked quietly away to ensure a peaceful, private retreat yet within accessible reach of the town. Cleverly and stylishly designed it contains bespoke, luxurious, comfortable furnishings. It has been lovingly restored and intuitively designed with mood lighting and the overall accommodation has an intimate, exquisite, and opulent feel.

The entrance hallway is shared between flats 4,5 and 6.

Fowey is situated at the mouth of the River Fowey in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The neighbouring villages of Polruan and Bodinnick are a short ferry ride across the estuary. Set in the middle of the South Cornish coastline between Mevagissey and Looe, Fowey plays host to several major cultural and maritime events, including the Fowey Festival of Arts and Literature and the Fowey Royal Regatta.

Whilst Fowey remains a working, deep water port, it is also the perfect cruising base from which to explore the Channel Islands and beautiful harbours and creeks of the West Country. Throughout the summer, its harbour teems with boating activity, from competitive racing of the local Troy class, cruising yachts and dinghies, to large gaff-rigged wooden Oyster luggers and visiting cruise liners.

The town itself is rich in amenities with all manner of shops, banks, boutiques, bars, delicatessens and restaurants. It also has its own hospital, doctors, and dentists’ surgeries, as well as a library, and primary and secondary schools. Further amenities are available at St Austell and Bodmin (9 miles and 13 miles, respectively), and Plymouth offers the full range of facilities expected of a city, including a university and theatres.

The motorway road network as far as Exeter and then either the A30 (via Bodmin) or A38 (via Plymouth) makes Fowey very accessible. Regular Intercity rail services from Par (about 3 hours 53 minutes to London Paddington) and Plymouth (about 3 hours and 7 minutes to London Paddington) are even quicker. The growing number of flights to the UK and international destinations from Newquay and Exeter Airports, and Brittany Ferries services from Plymouth to France and Spain, ensure that Fowey is now a viable destination or starting point of any journey.

On entering Fowey, please park in the public car park at the top of the village. Take the pedestrian access down to the village centre. Following the lane down to Fore Street. Turn right immediately after Niles Bakery on the right. The entrance will be found on the right.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
