Located in an elevated position on a Fowey residential cul-de-sac, Bowshot Lady is a super comfy, detached property with lots of space and the feel of a real home from home. This wonderful holiday home looks down into Fowey with super views out towards the estuary from the first floor particularly. 

Thanks to its great location, the riverside town of Fowey is reachable on foot (downhill) and in just a few short minutes too! 

The benefit of a private parking space in Fowey is a huge bonus and for many guests that stay at Bowshot, the car stays put for the entire holiday!

Just a couple of minutes walk from Bowshot Lady is the Safe Harbour Inn, serving a varied menu of dishes using locally sourced ingredients as well as local craft beers spirits and wine. 

The closest beach to the centre of Fowey (especially good for families with its large sea water paddling pool) is Whitehouse beach.  This beach is tidal and at high tides the beach will disappear for a time. The fabulous beach at Readymoney Cove is just a few minutes walk further along and is a lovely cove with sheltered waters and beach cafe/shop and toilets. Readymoney Cove and Whitehouse beach are dog friendly all year accept for July and August.  For a summer, all year round, dog friendly beach you can choose between the nearby Par Sands and the less busy, Polridmouth beach.

Once you have fully exhausted and experienced the very pleasant vibe of Fowey and its abundance of shops, cafes, pubs and restaurants, then just across the water via passenger ferry is the hillside village of Polruan with traditional pubs, cafe and a shop or two. 

Whilst staying in Fowey there are plenty of places to visit nearby and/or via a car but two must visit attractions (within just a half hours drive of Bowshot) are the world renowned Eden Project and the Lost Gardens of Heligan. 

Staying at Bowshot Lady is ideal for water sports enthusiasts  - paddle boarding, kayaking and dinghy sailing. The Fowey estuary has great sheltered paddling and the nearby beaches of Polkerris and Porthpean provide opportunities for visiting Cornish coves and seeing wildlife. The house itself has a garage for storing all your paddle boards and kayaks as well as outside and inside drying facilities for wetsuits and kit.  All this and the main Fowey launch point for paddling is less than 1km from the house!
