Location - Boscawen Woods is situated close to Boscawen Park and so there are lovely riverside walks within the immediate vicinity, and both Truro city and Malpas village are within a mile or so of the property. Malpas is widely known for its safe anchorage and mooring facilities, there are also a number of pleasure boats which regularly disembark passengers at the nearby slipway. The whole area is also designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and the tidal river is notable for its large Heronry and ever increasing population of the Egrets as well as Cormorants and Shellduck and the occasional seal. Malpas is alive with colour all year round, specifically in Autumn when the trees lining the water turn golden orange and red. There are many walks from Boscawen Woods that can take you deep in to the countryside, or along the river front. There is a public house within the village. The city of Truro is within a short flat walk and here there is a wide range of shops, schools, restaurants, banks, building societies and the main line railway link to London (Paddington).
