SITUATION 15 Ocean View enjoys an elevated position on a private cul-de-sac above the traditional fishing village of Polruan, standing on the eastern bank of the Fowey Estuary along Cornwall's beautiful South East Heritage Coast. This charming village enjoys a strong community spirit and offers a range of everyday amenities including a general store, post office, two public houses, a primary school and a long-established boat building and repair yard. Set in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and surrounded by miles of unspoilt coastline, countryside and National Trust land, Polruan provides an idyllic setting for those seeking a relaxed coastal lifestyle.
Across the harbour lies the picturesque sailing town of Fowey, easily reached via the regular foot ferry from Polruan Quay or the nearby car ferry at Bodinnick. Fowey is renowned for its excellent sailing facilities, deep-water anchorage, maritime heritage and vibrant waterfront, with an excellent selection of restaurants, pubs, cafés and independent shops. The town also hosts a number of notable cultural and maritime events throughout the year, including the renowned Daphne du Maurier Festival and the Fowey Regatta.
For those who enjoy the outdoors, the location is exceptional. The South West Coast Path is within easy reach, offering spectacular walks along some of Cornwall's most breathtaking coastline. The sheltered waters of the estuary and surrounding coastline provide outstanding opportunities for sailing, kayaking, paddleboarding, water skiing, windsurfing, power boating and a wide variety of other watersports, making this a superb base from which to enjoy the very best of Cornwall's coastal environment.
