About

The Lanreath, Pelynt and Polruan area sits in south‑east Cornwall where inland parishes meet the Fowey estuary. Lanreath and Pelynt are made up of hedged lanes, small farms and stone cottages clustered around medieval churchyards and village greens. Fields fall away into wooded combes and stream valleys, and a network of rights of way links the settlements. Polruan occupies a narrow strip of coast at the mouth of the estuary, its streets dropping steeply to a tidal quay and small harbour used for fishing and leisure boats.

Polruan’s connection across the river is marked by a regular passenger ferry to Fowey, a practical crossing that shapes daily life and visitor access. The harbour has historic slipways and boatyards where wooden work continues alongside more modern craft, and tidal movements are part of the harbour routine. Local footpaths and lanes provide direct access from the inland parishes to the shoreline, so agricultural land, parish buildings and the working quay sit close together in a landscape shaped by farming and by the sea.
