Guests say
Middle Deck in Fowey is consistently praised for its stunning views, luxurious comfort, and well-equipped new kitchen. Guests appreciate the thoughtful touches, including a coffee machine, and the addition of kayaks. The central location is ideal, despite occasional challenges with unloading. The property's cleanliness and ongoing updates contribute to many guests rebooking for future stays.
The property is implied to be well-maintained and clean, as guests have made repeat visits and noted ongoing updates. However, there are no explicit comments on cleanliness to provide a definitive score.
The central location with amazing views of the River Fowey is highly praised. The only drawback mentioned is the difficulty with unloading upon arrival due to the property's location.
Guests find the beds comfortable and the living spaces luxurious. One negative comment about noise from the flat above slightly impacts the score.
The property boasts a new kitchen, kayaks, a games room, and a well-equipped apartment. Ongoing improvements show good maintenance. The mention of noise from above suggests some room for improvement in soundproofing.
While guests have expressed appreciation for the property's amenities, there is no specific mention of gifts. Therefore, it is not possible to assess the thoughtfulness based on the provision of gifts, and the score is set to null.

Fowey is a delightful old seaside town with many attractions. Fowey Museum, an Aquarium, as well as local shops there are Galleries showing the work of local artists and craftspeople, a wonderful Book Shop, gift shops, riverside cafes and bistros, all within walking distance of The Square Rig apartments. Home to a Royal Yacht Club, Fowey holds a Royal Regatta every August, a week-long festival which takes place both on and off the water.
Every May there is also a Cultural Festival. Authors Daphne du Maurier and Arthur Quiller-Couch lived in Fowey and the town also has links with Kenneth Grahame’s Wind in the Willows, which is loosely based on the River Fowey and uses local landmarks in the story. On the river and the estuary there is a wide variety of birds, as well as seals and even dolphins which sometimes venture close to the shore. Sightseeing boat trips offer the opportunity not only to spot the wildlife but also to see this dramatic coastline from a different perspective. If you fancy exploring further afield there is the Fowey to Mevagissey boat that runs throughout the season (weather permitting), or you can take one of the Square Rig’s kayaks or the rowing boat (strictly at guest’s own risk, a limited range of buoyancy aids, guests are advised to bring their own or hire locally) up the river and see the small waterside villages with their quaint churches and lively pubs.
If you want to walk, ferries cross the estuary at both ends of the town, going to Bodinnick and Polruan. Once on the other side, there is the famous Hall Walk that follows the estuary, taking you through a wooded valley, past hidden creeks and offering amazing views from the cliffs.
Other activities such as cycling, golf, horse riding and walking can all be enjoyed locally. Visits can be made to historic country houses and castles such as Lanhydrock House and Restormel Castle, as well as the Eden Project, the Lost Gardens of Heligan and other National Trust and private gardens found in Cornwall.

Fowey and Middle Deck were a wonderful combination for a fantastic and extremely comfortable holiday. Middle Deck is very central with amazing views of the River Fowey. The 2 bedroomed apartment was absolute luxury with everything you would need. The addition of Kayaks etc were really the icing on the cake much enjoyed by our grandchildren.
