Fowey

From Halal Explorer

File:Fowey banner Seafront - Fowey Seafront Fowey (Cornish: Fowydh) (pronounced 'Foy') is a small fishing town on the south coast of Cornwall, situated at the mouth of the river Fowey. It is set on the west side of a steep valley, so be prepared for much walking up and down. There are many pubs and restaurants. The place comes alive in the summer, and the Fowey Regatta in mid August attracts many yachts and sailing boats.

Travel to Fowey

By car

Travel by train to Fowey

Fowey is around 4 miles from Par, 8 miles from Street Austell and 6 miles from Lostwithiel, all of which have their own train stations; a train to Par and either the bus or a taxi to Fowey is sensible.

Travel on a Bus in Fowey

As of 2023 bus services to Fowey are mainly operated by wall First Kernow, with some other services operated by Roselyn Coaches; impartial information on all operators' buses (including local and county route maps) is available from Cornwall Council's public transport website]. First's route 25 runs hourly Monday-Saturday between Fowey, Par train station and Street Austell, continuing two-hourly through to Newquay during the winter, and more frequently (including Sundays) during the summer months, with route 24 providing additional journeys between Fowey and Street Austell including a Sunday service - but not serving Par train station. Even in the winter the two routes combine to offer two buses each hour between Street Austell and Fowey during the week; on Sundays route 24 only operates every two hours, so plan your journeys carefully!

Buy a Flight ticket to and from Fowey

The closest airport is wallairportnewquay.com/ Cornwall Airport Newquay (IATA Flight Code: NQY) in Newquay on the north coast of Cornwall, with links from Newquay town centre by bus to Fowey and by train to Par, although the airport is a fair way outside of the town at Street Mawgan and there is only limited public transport available; First Kernow route 56 runs a few times each day to Newquay town centre. Check Traveline to see if a journey using public transport is feasible.

The nearest large airports are Exeter and Bristol, both some hours away but with good European connections from low-cost carriers such as Ryanair and Easyjet.

Thit is a small town and walking is the easiest way to get around. There are taxis available, and there is a [https://?language=en&line=30725&lineVer=1&sup=%20&net=swe&project=y10&outputFormat=0&command=direct&itdLPxx_displayHeader=false&itdLPxx_sessionID=EFA03_51180964&itdLPxx_operatorCodeForTTB=YE town bus service operated by Yeo's serving the Town Quay and the vehicle parks at least five days a week all year round.

Driving isn't recommended, especially for those who get scared driving through very narrow streets, and there is little parking available in the town itself, so parking either in the "Central Carpark" at the top of the hill (the primary street into Fowey now takes you straight to it) or driving in the back way and parking at "Caffa Mill Carpark" (next to the Bodinnick Ferry) is generally advised and both of these are serviced by the town bus service.

During the summer months there's a regular passenger ferry between Mevagissey and Fowey, which is a nice way to spend 30 minutes on a sunny day. Alternatively walk along the coastal path in either direction passing by some beautiful and quiet beaches, or hire cycles in the nearby Pentewan village and go for a ride along the many cycle paths nearby.

The Hall Walk stretches around the other side of the river from Polruan to Bodinnick and can be walked in either direction. Both ends of the walk are linked to Fowey by ferry, and the walk gives wonderful views of Fowey and the river and its tributaries. Even more importantly and there are pubs at each end so you can finish your walk with a well deserved local ale or a bite to eat.
