About this property
Smugglers Loft at Mixtow Creek
Perfectly positioned on the banks of the River Fowey, Smugglers Loft enjoys a truly idyllic waterside setting just moments from the ancient port town of Fowey. This delightful retreat is ideal for couples or small families seeking a relaxing Cornish escape with river views and coastal charm.
At the heart of the property is a charming open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner — a welcoming space designed for both relaxation and sociable evenings in. After a day of exploring, sink into the sofa and unwind with a favorite film on the TV, or gather around the dining table to enjoy a leisurely meal together. The compact yet well-equipped kitchen features an electric oven and hob, microwave, and fridge, providing everything needed to prepare anything from a hearty breakfast to a simple supper.
The bedrooms are thoughtfully positioned towards the entrance of the property. The double bedroom enjoys lovely water views, offering a peaceful spot to wake each morning. Opposite, a single bedroom also includes an additional pull-out single bed, providing flexible sleeping arrangements for an extra guest if required. Completing the accommodation is a bathroom fitted with a shower over bath and WC.
Outside, guests have access to a beautifully maintained shared garden with a choice of patio areas — perfect for soaking up the sunshine or enjoying a glass of wine as the day draws to a close. The property also benefits from private off-road parking for two cars, adding extra convenience to your stay.
A private shared pontoon sits just in front of the house, inviting outdoor-led days spent fishing, crabbing, paddleboarding or kayaking, or even hiring your own boat for the week to cruise into Fowey and explore the beauty of the river at your own pace.
Smugglers Loft is ideally located for exploring this captivating corner of Cornwall. The coastal village of Polruan is just a short drive away, with a passenger ferry linking it to Fowey. Slightly further afield, enjoy days out to Looe and Polperro to the east, or Mevagissey to the west. The charming town of Lostwithiel is well worth a visit, offering an array of boutique interior shops and antiques emporiums. Walkers will be in their element with direct access to a public footpath and the nearby South West Coast Path. Other popular attractions within easy reach include the Eden Project, The Lost Gardens of Heligan, Charlestown, and a variety of National Trust properties — ensuring there is something for everyone to enjoy.
This property can be booked with Bosuns Loft, Kits House and Captains Cottage to accommodate 19 guests.
