The Boat House is situated on the banks of one of the most beautiful tidal estuaries in Cornwall.
The Fowey River runs from its source high on Bodmin Moor near the world famous Jamaica Inn down through the leafy woods of the Glynn Valley.
It passes Lanhydrock House, one of the most visited National Trust properties in the country. Gathering in size it passes right through the ancient stannery town of Lostwithiel heading on to the river mouth at Fowey

The true spirit of the county can be experienced throughout this area of Cornwall with a wide range of landscapes from the bracken covered moors to the stunning cliffs linked by hidden woodlands, each with its own wildlife.
Well publicised walks encourage the visitor to explore areas with all levels of ability catered for.
Bird watching, horse riding, fishing and golf are available within 3 miles of the cottage.
We are surrounded by a selection of beaches.
Despite all these distractions many people come to the Boat House and find that all they want to do is watch the tide come in and out.
