Birthday Celebrations
We enjoyed an amazing weekend at The Old School House, celebrating my mum’s 80th birthday. The property is perfect for a large group, with large communal spaces where everyone can come together, but also some cosy nooks where you can enjoy a moment of quiet. The fact that it’s located above the beautiful Fowey estuary, with fantastic views and the town and beach a short stroll away is just a bonus!

Incredible building
It’s a fantastic space. Well utilised. The furniture is beautiful. The heating worked extremely well and the place was toasty warm. Lots of activities such as ping pong, giant Jenga plus a selection of board games. The hot tub had incredible views. I would definitely go back.
