Fowey is regarded as one of the most attractive waterside communities in the county. Particularly well known as a popular sailing centre, the town has two thriving sailing clubs, a famous annual Regatta and excellent facilities for the keen yachtsman. For a small town Fowey provides a good range of shops and businesses catering for most day to day needs. The immediate area is surrounded by many miles of delightful coast and countryside much of which is in the ownership of the National Trust. Award winning restaurants, small boutique hotels, excellent public houses etc, have helped to establish Fowey as a popular, high quality, destination.

There are several excellent golf courses within easy reach, many world class gardens are to be found in the immediate area and the fascinating Eden Project with its futuristic biomes is just 5 miles to the north west.

There are good road links to the motorway system via the A38/A30. Railway links to London, Paddington, can be made locally at Par, and St. Austell and there are flights to London and other destinations from Newquay.

The Location - Caffa Mill is the prefect location to be one step away from the hustle and bustle of Fowey town yet amenities are only a short stroll away.

Direct road access to the property from Four Turnings, saves having to wind your way through the one way system of the town centre.

The Property - Originally a flour mill with chimney stack still in situ, this historic home went on to become an ammunitions store, dance hall, engineering works, rocking horse factory and photographic studio, quite a past!
