I first viewed The Shell Seekers and Serendipity on Tuesday 9th February 2016, I fell in love with the setting and it was not long before I owned both sets of front door keys. Having spent much of 2017 renovating and updating both cottages, I am thrilled the way they both look today. Fowey is a charming small town at the mouth of the River Fowey in south Cornwall, England. Set in an Area of Outst

anding Natural Beauty, the town lies on the west side of the Fowey estuary where the large, deep water harbour is a magnet for sailing fans. As you walk the ever narrowing streets of the old town where mediaeval and Georgian buildings cast shadows over each other, a vibrant maritime history comes to life. Lining the main Fore Street you will find many small, independent shops selling unusual gifts, artwork, clothing and books. If you’re a foodie then Fowey is home to many bistros, cafes and restaurants where you’ll find menus offering the best in local produce – Fowey River mussels are a highlight. We pride ourselves on attention to detail and make sure that our cottages are extremely well equipped and comfortable to ensure you have the most relaxing holiday possible. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me and I hope you enjoy Fowey as much as I do.

So today we decided to do a day trip to Padstow, which took an hour driving 🚗 from Fowey and … the shops and galleries are AMAZING - it’s definitely worth a visit ❤️. It’s also the perfect excuse to have Rick Steins fish & chips and they were delicious 😋.

Who can guess which beach we went to afterwards for a walk and even though it was a little wet it was still beautiful 🐾❤️🐾.

Serendipity & The Shell Seekers Cottages ...

Welcome to my holiday cottages in Fowey.

I first viewed The Shell Seekers and Serendipity on Tuesday 9th February 2016, I fell in love with the setting and it was not long before I owned both sets of front door keys. Having spent much of 2017 renovating and updating both cottages, I am thrilled the way they both look today.

Fowey is a charming small town at the mouth of the River Fowey in south Cornwall, England. Set in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the town lies on the west side of the Fowey estuary where the large, deep water harbour is a magnet for sailing fans. As you walk the ever narrowing streets of the old town where mediaeval and Georgian buildings cast shadows over each other, a vibrant maritime history comes to life.

Lining the main Fore Street you will find many small, independent shops selling unusual gifts, artwork, clothing and books. If you’re a foodie then Fowey is home to many bistros, cafes and restaurants where you’ll find menus offering the best in local produce – Fowey River mussels are a highlight.
