Built in 1826, ""Captains Row"" was the home of Capt Bate, an old sea captain. It is right on the River Fowey. Beautifully refurbished in 2006, it has all of the amenities of a luxury holiday home that is regularly used by it’s owners. The views are stunning and there are two balconies from which to watch the bustling life of the river – from yachts to freighters, and fishing boats to traditional gig racers.
This is an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and when you stand on a balcony looking at the view, it is easy to see why! Listen to the cry of seagulls, watch cormorants fly over the water, and maybe see a kingfisher flash past in a glitter of colour. Fowey retains its unique, unspoiled charm, with its narrow winding streets, old fashioned pubs and variety of shops. It is within easy reach of beaches, spectacular walks, the Eden Project and other places of interest. All this to make your holiday enjoyable, relaxing, interesting and exciting when you come to this oasis by the river.
Notes on accommodation: Telephone accepts incoming calls, toll-free calls and emergency calls. Gas and electricity are included in the rental. There is no smoking or pets at Captains Row, and the house is not suitable for children under the age of 12 years. Outside: Both balconies are big enough to dine on. Parking: One of the many lovely things about Fowey is that it is not really a car place – it’s a walking place – and so parking in the town centre is restricted. Caffa Mill is the nearest car park. It is about 200 yards further on down the road from Captains Row. You have to pay and display day and night . If Caffa Mill is full, there is another car park which is just past the Caffa Mill car park. In the unlikely event that both these car parks are full, there is the town’s main car park (clearly sign posted), or other parking around the town. (Full details about parking are available when booking). Cleaning / Towels / Linen / Maid service: All bed linen, towels (for indoor use) and tea towels are provided (changed each week). Please bring your own beach towels. Cleaning is once a week on Friday

Our travels take us far and wide but we have never found a home from home to equal Captains Row. Thank you for another perfect stay.

Thank you for a wonderful time!
By Towpick From Poland on 14-Jul-2018
We've had a wonderful week at Captains Row. Fowey is perfect place to explore Devon and Cornwall.
The house gave us relaxing evenings watching the river life going by and beautiful mornings when the sunrise wakes you up.
Weather was very very kind to us - I would say last week was "Mediterranean".
Thanks again!

This is the finest holiday home wherever we’ve been!
The fantastic view over the river, always charming, so much better than the Rhein in Cologne.
How amazing that you let us rent it!

We’ve had a lovely relaxing week at Captains Row, only wished I’d booked for 2 weeks. Spent sunny mornings on the balcony watching the ever-changing picture of river life.
The afternoons we spent out walking the lovely area. Thank you for letting us stay in your wonderful home. We’ll be back.

Firstly, I need to apologise! There are 10 claw marks on the front door frame; this is due to me being dragged kicking and screaming on the last day of leaving!! (I even looked on Google at squatter’s rights}.
Needless to say we have had a fantastic time.
My advice to future holiday makers is, when getting out of bed, in the main bedroom naked, please ensure the blind is down, because it does encourage sea-sickness on the Bodinnick ferry to onlookers.
A large round of applause to Joan and Alan for making our holiday unique and special. (Note: This is a genuine comment!)

Had a fantastic week in this lovely riverside cottage. The weather has been good all week. We have enjoyed the coastal walks and just sitting here watching as the river goes by.
We have been to many cottages and places around the UK and this is one of the best.
Thanks for the welcome.

No matter where we go, no matter where we roam.
There is nowhere that quite matches up to our lovely Fowey home from home (we mean Captains Row!)
We are always sad to leave Captains Row but we look forward to our 5th visit in 2011 (they keep coming back again and again, 2018 will be their 11th visit)
