Stylish apartment

Beautiful and spacious apartment in the picture perfect town of Fowey. Right at the Main Street. We had a lovely stay. There was a bit of noise though. But nothing earplugs won’t fix.

We were given the wrong key code and limited directions to the property but the owner was easily reached and very helpful and after that we had a wonderful stay in the Salt Loft. The position is great for a short break with lovely food available on your doorstop (we would recommend Appletons and Sams), and a ferry to Polruan where there is a nice walk. The bed is comfy with good quality linen and the whole flat is beautifully decorated. We would definitely recommend.

The Salt Loft is conveniently located within minutes of restaurants, pubs, shopping, and the town quay. It was comfortable, clean, and had everything I needed for my weeklong stay. Simon is a terrific host! He responded quickly whenever I needed to be in touch. Because of the rail strike, I was delayed in arriving in Fowey and Simon was very accommodating in the change in plans. I would gladly stay at this property again.

Salt Loft

I had a lovely week in Fowey, the Salt Loft is the perfect location to stay tucked away off the main street but central to everything, for visits to The Dwelling House for afternoon teas and delicious cakes and the Lifebouy for fish butties. It is a real home from home cosy, comfortable and warm for the days that were a bit chilly, boardgames dvd's and books you name it...it's there. Thank you Jules.

Lovely flat

We had a fantastic time in the flat. TV had every app you could think of and sofa was incredibly comfortable. Made staying inside enjoyable! Only downside was the noise of the seagulls which were perched outside the bedroom window, meaning the windows in the bedroom had to be closed and as it’s a loft, made the space quite warm. Otherwise, wonderful stay!

Quirky apartment in Fowey

We have loved our 3 night stay in Simon’s flat. Comfy (very warm being in the roof!) and characterful with everything we needed. Treated ourselves to a meal at Appleton’s over the road but cooked in the other two nights (buying local goodies from the town) No view, but watched the rooftops for the baby seagulls being fed in their nest and taking their first steps. Good mooch around Fowey, hired a boat for an hour, and took the ferry over the other side of the harbour and back after a great walk with views. Day trips to the enormous Lost Hardens of Heligan and the interesting Charlestown. So pleased we came - but don’t think we will miss the early morning wake-up calls from the seagulls!!!

Lovely stay at The Salt Loft

Spent three nights at the beautiful Salt Loft in Fowey. Everything about our stay here was fabulous and would highly recommend it. The accommodation itself is beautifully decorated with high quality fittings and furnishings. Everything has been well thought out to make your stay here extremely comfortable. Easy to load and unload your cases etc outside which was a pleasant surprise having seen what the traffic can be like in Fowey!! Have a look on Google maps before you go, makes it nice and easy to find when you arrive. Communication was excellent and we would definitely look at staying here again if we ever go back to Fowey. Welcome pack was a lovely touch, thank you

Home from Home

Great little place to stay right in the heart of Fowey. High quality fittings and furnishings throughout the property with all mod cons. Very nice touches with welcome gifts, Cornish fudge, a bottle of Prosecco with coffee and milk stocked in the fridge. Really nice place to stay. Downside would be the lack or proximity of parking and those pesky church bells chiming throughout the night. Would highly recommend and would definitely stay in the future.

Loved the Salt Loft

Absolutely lovely loft apartment decorated beautifully and to highest standard. Lots of lovely nautical memorabilia around and felt so cosy. Everything you could want or need is provided and all fixtures and fittings and equipment are of top quality. We had a couple of minor issues whilst there which I messaged Simon about and he responded straight away and sorted them out for us. We had a little bit of trouble locating it although once you know where it is it’s so easy and very central to all of Foweys facilities. The only thing we missed was some outside space but we were out and about most of the time anyway so it wasn’t a major issue. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely return to this little haven.

Fabulous boutique apartment in the heart of Fowey.

A wonderful boutique apartment, centrally located to enjoy everything Fowey has to offer. It was very wet and windy during our stay, The Salt Loft was an ideal place to relax as it’s located in the heart of Fowey we could explore easily in between the rain ☔️. Communication from booking and throughout our stay was seamless and Simon responded quickly to any enquiries. A must stay if you are visiting Fowey, we will most definitely be staying in The Salt Loft on our next visit to Fowey.

Communication from booking to arrival was excellent. The salt loft perfectly located. We stay in Fowey every new year and this was the most comfortable stay we have experienced. The welcome hamper was a perfect touch. Robes provided which we thought was a great idea. Bed very comfortable , beautiful linen. Lounge very comfy and the tv’s excellent. Having the use of a washer was ideal. Wifi very good. All utensils we needed in the kitchen area. Very clean and tastefully furnished. We will definitely book again. Ate at the ship, king if prussia and haveners all of which served excelkent food and the staff were lovely. Thankyou for a perfect stay Highly recommended

Great location, beautful apartment but not practical

My Husband and I stayed at the salt loft for a minimoon having married the previous weekend. The location is ideal for exploring Fowey, right in the centre of town. The property itself is very well decorated and comfortable and the coffee machine was a bonus, the bed is also very comfortable. The check in process was smooth as the keys are picked up from a key box and we parked the car close by in Caffa Mill car park (that is the closest one although the instructions say it is Main car park) However, there are a number of things that were not ideal at all. The bedroom is a lot smaller than I had anticipated so we had to keep our luggage in the lounge and hair drying had to be done in the hallway by the door where a plug is located near a mirror. The shower isn’t very powerful and isn’t tall enough to get under without crouching, fine for me but for hubby it was quite annoying. The main issue with the salt loft is that there are no blinds on the sky lights in the bedroom (I have sky lights at in my bedroom at home with blinds). The house instructions said there was a roll of magic blackout blind that can be put up however you then have the choice of either doing DIY every night before you go to sleep or keeping the room in darkness for the entire stay, quite the annoyance whilst on holiday and after the second night of fiddling with putting it up we ended up choosing the latter so we didn’t have to do it every night before bed. We had a great stay in Fowey, the location is perfect and the town itself is beautiful but I’d probably stay elsewhere next time just because of the lack of blinds on the sky lights in the bedroom.

Fabulous in Fowey

We booked the Salt Loft based on the photographs and description and it lived up to all our expectations. Situated in the heart of Fowey it was an ideal location to explore the town and it’s surroundings and the apartment itself was decorated and furnished to the highest standard. As a bonus we had booked it during the Fowey Regatta week (completely unintentionally) so there were loads of events and activities laid on - a real cherry on the cake!
