If you visit this stunning harbour we would recommend you drive to Polruan via Looe and Pelynt and park in the car park with the best view in Cornwall. It about a 30 minute drive. You can then get the foot ferry over into Fowey. This will avoid the difficulty of getting parked in Fowey which can be tricky in the summer and is a much more pleasant way to travel. We would recommend heading into the gardens of the Fowey Hotel for a cream tea which is open to non residents and has outstanding views over the river. Readmoney Beach is also very pretty.
