We stayed at Foye Old Exchange for the last night of our weeks holiday in Cornwall, having found it just by chance we didn't know what to expect. We were delighted to find it more than comfortable and the welcome was very warm! We had one of the standard rooms as the four poster was already booked, but found it... More

We stayed here one night before setting off the walk the Saints Way (backwards). Great location in a lovely town, and nice, comfortable room. The owners were very helpful and friendly, and the breakfast was the biggest I have ever seen - it defeated me (but not my boyfriend). Great place to stay.

Stayed for 1 night at the end of our trip around Cornwall. Michael and Celia are both real characters and very nice hosts - and Michael makes a rather large and tasty full Cornish breakfast too. Fowey is definitely worth a visit - take the ferry boat across to Polruan for a full view of the harbour, and dinner at... More

Stayed for two nights whilst attending a Wedding. I was very pleasantly surprised by the standard of accommodation. Fowey..."Foy" as I learnt it's pronounced, is picture post-card beautiful. The B&B lived up to this idyllicc setting. The owners are a little eccentric, the guy's been theTown Crier for 32 years and there's enough historic telephone memorebilia on board to explain... More

We had a fabulous short stay in this traditional B&B. Our room was huge, with a sitting area, and views over the pretty little street. The location is perfect, with a very short stroll to the restaurants and harbour. Our hosts were charming, and were always ready to help. If you want a real taste of Cornwall, stay here!!

We had the pleasure of staying at the Foye exchange for 3 nights in August. The four poster room was our choosen accomodation and it was the correct choice with loads of room and large en-suite and dressing area. Do plenty of walking if you get the chance as the breakfast is huge , our hosts were helpfull and witty... More

It is a shock to be asked to leave your room, that you have paid for, before lunch time, because the owner has 'a million things to do.' As a young couple, we didnt feel very respected when the owner walked into our room one morning to get towels, and later when she gave us 10 minutes to get out... More

What a delightful little B&B right in the centre of Fowey. Foye Old Exchange retains all the olde world charm of the original building but with the comforts of a modern hotel. The bedroom was gorgeous with a lovely comfortable bed, and all the extras like tea, coffee etc. The bathroom was charming, large and with a lot of the... More

Loved it here! How lovely to singing and whistling from within before the door is even open! Try and get the four poster suite, as it is beautifully furnished and HUGE! Only slight drawback if you aren`t very fit is the walk up to the car park, but it`s worth it.
