| The
Situation |
|
| Carnethic
House is without doubt one of the most delightful small hotels in
Cornwall, let alone Fowey. A warm welcome with the very highest
standards of accommodation will make you feel at home right from
the start.
While you won't
find white-tied waiters or deferential doormen, you will find real
comfort, courtesy & helpfulness at a very reasonable cost.
| The
hotel is a large old Georgian Estate House that has been
completely modernised, although great care has been taken
to retain as much as possible its grand character.
The
rooms are all centrally heated, have colour television,
and tea and coffee making facilities. Most rooms are
en-suite and all have showers. The beds are deluxe quality
interior sprung to ensure a restful nights sleep, the
interior decoration to quote many a guest " just
beautiful..."

Summer ~
Winter ~ Spring
Winters in Cornwall are generally very mild. The flowers bloom
early in the New Year and are beautiful. One of the country's most
beautiful National Trust properties, Lanhydrock House is only 15
minutes drive and should not be missed. Also close by are the
'Lost Gardens of Heligan' famous after being featured on BBC TV.
We are open from February to November inclusive and offer a range
of 'Off Season Breaks'. Reduced rates are available, please

Fowey could hardly
have a more lovely or climatically kinder natural setting, yet for
all that it is uncommercialised and unspoilt. Fowey has a long and
interesting history, charming cottages, quaint streets and
sheltered coves that overlook a magnificent waterfront and a safe
anchorage for shoals of brightly coloured boats.
Fowey offers an
excellent selection of restaurants and outdoor activities; you can
enjoy the excitement of shark fishing from nearby Looe or the more
peaceful 'feathering' for mackerel from Fowey itself. In addition
to the internationally famous Daphne Du Maurier Arts Festival
there are always numerous other events taking place, so there's
bound to be something of interest to you during your stay.
There
are a number of excellent walks including the famous 'Hall Walk'
along the Fowey River between the Boddinick Ferry and Polruan. The
Cornish Coastal path is easily reached from Carnethic House.
The proprietors
are members of several local Golf Clubs and if you would while to
play during your stay will make all the necessary arrangements on
your behalf.
