    “We really enjoyed our time at Jordan Cottage.”

    The owners provided us with everything we needed for a comfortable and homely stay. It was ideal for a couple wanting peace and quiet and a nice outlook. Richard gave good advice and guidance on gaining access, parking, local attractions and amenities. Boddinick is a very good location for visiting Fowey, Eden Project, great beaches, historical harbours and other coastal areas with good access to the SW Coastal Paths. The cottage is located half way up a hill so guests should be aware ...

    The owners provided us with everything we needed for a comfortable and homely stay. It was ideal for a couple wanting peace and quiet and a nice outlook. Richard gave good advice and guidance on gaining access, parking, local attractions and amenities. Boddinick is a very good location for visiting Fowey, Eden Project, great beaches, historical harbours and other coastal areas with good access to the SW Coastal Paths. The cottage is located half way up a hill so guests should be aware they need to walk up if spending the day in Fowey and using the foot ferry (£2.50/person each way) (Car £6 each way) to cross. Or having a very good meal and few drinks in the Old Ferry Inn at the foot of the hill. It was great to have a designated parking space, but those with low bumpers/poor ground clearance need to take extra care when driving in and out of the steep access to the small car park opposite the cottage. Also be aware there are steps down to the cottage if carrying baggage or those with walking difficulties.

    This is a very fair and entirely accurate assessment of Jordan Cottage which we were very pleased to receive. Many thanks Richard and Christine Property Owner

The property

Fowey 0.8 miles.

Jordan Cottage is a charming riverside retreat in the hamlet of Bodinnick and just across the river from the picturesque town of Fowey, Cornwall.

Perfect for couples, this delightful and characterful property offers reserved parking, proximity to a famous 18th-century inn, which serves meals, a short ferry trip directly into Fowey with all its shops and eateries, and easy access to stunning coastal beaches.

One well-behaved dog is welcome to join you on some fabulous walks such as the renowned Hall Walk.

If you go up the hill, however, there are footpaths to Penmarlam Quay with its delightful seasonal café, boatyard and views of the china clay docks.

On entering Jordan Cottage you will be in the kitchen, which is well equipped with everything you will need to prepare a romantic meal for two with pots of herbs outside the kitchen door for you to use.

The bedroom offers a double bed with a wardrobe, chest of drawers and bedside tables.

The nearby bathroom is fitted with a bath and an overhead shower ideal for a relaxing soak or a quick morning refresh.

The homely sitting room has its own woodburning stove and free supply of logs which is perfect for those colder nights of autumn/winter.

This room also has a Smart TV with a DVD player and a wide choice of some classic and contemporary DVDs.

There is also a well-stocked bookcase which you are very welcome to enjoy during your stay.

The conservatory offers a dining area with a large table that can be used for dining and/or as a workstation.

There is also a seating area with a coffee table and shelving for OS maps and local walk guides.

This room offers some fantastic views of the river, especially in autumn and winter.

The wildlife garden can also be viewed from here.

The large garden is exclusively for the use of guests and garden furniture is provided so that you can make the most of Cornish sunshine and views.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £100.

About the location

FOWEY

Lostwithiel 8 miles; Polperro 8 miles

Looe 8 miles. In Bodinnick and Fowey you are in the heart of Daphne Du Maurier country with all those rich associations. Fowey is easily accessed by the Bodinnick Ferry which runs continuously and takes cars and foot passengers across the river. The ferry runs from morning until evening and provides guests with a wonderful choice of holiday experiences. There are a wide range of restaurants, pubs and cafes to satisfy all tastes. Fish meals abound and Rick Stein praised dining in Fowey in his television series on Cornwall but there are also tapas, pizza and fish and chip venues to provide for all tastes.

The historic and special town of Fowey on the impressive estuary of the river Fowey is full of activity and colour with sailing, canoeing and gig rowing. Galleries and pottery shops play their part in the artistic life of the town and the aquarium and museum add to your range of choices. The Town Quay is very central to life in Fowey and many events take place here.

This is also where you can book to go on river trips or take a ferry out to sea and call in at the old fishing town of Mevagissey. You can also hire your own dingy by the hour and explore the estuary or join in on one of the many group kayak expeditions up river.

In the Fowey Valley you are never far from the sea and there are any number of beaches and coves to be explored. There is Readymoney Cove with the village of Polruan just across the river by passenger ferry, which also offers a beach. A little further away there is Polkerris beach with swimming and other water-based activities and back on the east side of the estuary is the wild and spectacular Lantic Bay.

Walking in Cornwall is always a pleasure and the Fowey Valley offers exceptional walks both on the east and west sides of the estuary. Walk books and OS maps in the cottage can help you plan your visits.

Guests at Jordan Cottage particularly enjoy days out and The Eden Project and The Lost Gardens of Heligan are favourites. There are also plenty of National Trust Properties to enjoy and Lanhydrock is our nearest. Visiting other towns and villages is also much enjoyed and Polperro, Looe and Charleston Harbour offer interest as does Bodmin Moor with Jamaica Inn and its ancient sites such as The Hurlers.

Note: Reservations between 28th September and the 14th October 2024 must be a minimum of 7 nights.
