About Golant in Cornwall

Lying about 3 miles upriver from Fowey, Golant is a pretty waterside village. Much loved as a stop off on a river trip or kayaking expedition, the village is in a stunning position hugging the banks of the river, the views here are tremendous.

​

During the summer months the river and village are busy with boating activity but in the quieter winter months a great variety of birdlife can be seen on the water – egrets, cormorants, herons, kingfishers as well as ducks and swans.

​

The village has a local pub serving real ales it also has regular entertainment including live music and a beer festival. Whilst you can also use Golant as the starting point for your own kayaking adventure with hire and organised expeditions available in the village.
