There is parking, but it is not directly next to the Inn - it is a two minute walk up the hill from the Inn, which is at the bottom of the hill. The parking is in a dedicated area and for a reasonable number of cars - at least 5 - but could be tight for saloon cars depending on what other vehicles are parked there and in what configuration they are parked in.

The Old Ferry Inn is in Bodinnick, the east side of the Fowey river. If you want to go to Fowey, it is easiest to catch the ferry across. To drive there is a long way round! If you take the ferry across please note the time of when it stops running otherwise you will be stranded or face a large taxi bill.

There is a nice pub "The Ship Inn" at Lerryn, which is about 3 miles away down the country lanes on the Bodinnick side, or you could drive or get a taxi the 10 miles to Polruan where there is The Lugger and the Russell Inn, Its also only about 10 miles to Lostwithiel which offers a lot of choice, I would doubt that the last ferry is at 7pm in September - during summer we enjoy a passenger ferry beween Fowey and Bodinnick until 10,30pm on Mon, Wed, Fri and Saturday. Fowey has live band at The Galleon on Friday, The Globe is absolutely excellent for food as is Sams, and the mussels in The Ship just shoudnt be missed! Unless you want to have a 45 minute drive back around though you need to start thining about drinking up and leaving Fowey by about 10pm, A taxi back is about £30 and time and a half after midnight, Until about 10.15pm you can also take a private passenger ferry from the town quay to Penmarlan (£4 each) and is a nice 15 minute boat ride, arriving at a really nice summer bar/shack on the boatyard - the bar is really fun and friendly and this is where a lot of local restaurant and bar owners come to chill out..... Shhh! . Service is second to none and the humour fresh and dry, and it feels like you are on the Med as you look over the river Fowey - a 10 minute walk over the style and across the field and then another 5 minutes down the hill and you are back at the Ferry Inn. You could also take a cab to pretty Polperro which is about 10 miles along the coast and has lots of choice for food and 2 or 3 live music in places including The Blue Peter (Sat) - for another great experience The Talland Bay hotel is also about 10 miles away and offers breathtaking views and really nice terrace to look over the sea. It has real style and the staff are excellent and the service immaculate. They had excellent food (try the cod encased in sea salt - it was really eye catching and a piece of theatre to see them break open the case. The food was more exotic and possibly finer than pubs and most restaurants, but surprisingly the price was not any more noticeably expensive than either Bodinnick or Fowey. Hope this helped

No - No lift. Very Steep hill to parking area. Steep steps up to hotel and also within. Venue not really suitable or anyone with mobility difficulties. If you should decide to stay insist on room with estuary view. Regards Jim
