Pont Pill is a tidal creek off the Rivery Fowey. Some say it was the inspiration for Kenneth Grahame's 'Wind in the Willows'

It is a secluded, untouched area of Cornwall and is the perfect place to escape and connect with nature.

There is an old port here dating from the 18th century. Now owned by the National Trust, some of the buildings are available to rent as holiday accommodation.

Although the quay can only be reached at high tide, it was a key place for exporting logs and grain and importing lime, coal, bricks and flour.
