Bodinnick, Fowey £780,000

Pink Cottage is available on the open market for the first time in 50 years, the property offers an opportunity to purchase a well-presented charming cottage in an elevated position with river views within the exceptionally popular village of Bodinnick.

The quaint fishing village of Bodinnick is situated in south-east Cornwall on the banks of River Fowey and lies within an 'Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty' and adjoins National Trust land. The famous and very beautiful Hall Walk, a footpath which winds its way around the estuary to Polruan, starts just a stone’s throw from the property. Bodinnick was once home to the author Daphne Du Maurier and her house 'Ferryside' sits opposite the 'Old Ferry Inn', which is over 400 years old. A frequent car ferry runs between Bodinnick and Caffa Mill in Fowey all year round providing a convenient link over the river.

Bodinnick has number of delightful sandy beaches to either side. Through Fowey, there are beaches at Readymoney, Coombe Hawne (Haven) and Polridmouth, where Du Maurier’s old beach house stands. To the other side are beaches at Lantic Bay, Lantivet Bay and a number of small coves dotted along the coast toward Polperro.

Pink Cottage benefits from generous south facing terraced gardens and low maintenance paved patio offering many viewpoints to enjoy the far-reaching river views. The property has a successful holiday letting history but would also appeal to full time owner occupation or for us as a second home.

Internal viewing is highly recommended.
