Daphne Du Maurier and Fowey Cornwall

Daphne Du Maurier first came to Fowey in her early twenties and immediately fell in love not just with the town but the whole of Cornwall.

For many years she lived at Ferryside, the house purchased by her parents overlooking the Ferry Crossing, and where she wrote The Loving Spirit, published in 1931.

Although produced some years ago by Restormel's Tourism Dept it is still relevant in its commentary about Daphne Du Maurier her love of Cornwall and the influences and inspiration that she drew from Fowey and Cornwall.
