Situation - Mawgan Porth is located between Watergate Bay and Padstow and is one of the most popular and sought-after locations on the North Cornish coast, renowned for its lovely sandy beach and excellent surfing. The property itself lies around a mile from the beach, up the valley on the banks of a tributary of the river Menalhyl.

There are excellent transport links, including Newquay Airport, the A39 and A30 with numerous tourist attractions nearby such as the National Trust owned Bedruthan Steps and renowned beaches including Watergate Bay, Fistral, Treyarnon, Trevone, Constantine and Harlyn.

The neighbouring village of St Mawgan nestles in the Vale of Lanherne and is centred around the 13th Century Parish Church. This picture postcard community provides excellent local facilities including a well-regarded primary school, church, post office, general stores, craft shop, tea rooms, village hall and the renowned Falcon Inn.

Around eight and a half miles away is Padstow, internationally renowned as the home of Rick Steins Seafood Restaurant. Surrounded by an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, this harbour town boasts a myriad of quaint narrow streets arranged around the harbour together with a wide variety of restaurants and shops.

The Property - Difficult to encapsulate in words, the essence and atmosphere at Retorrick Mill is truly rather special. Loved by many for its relaxed, family orientated style with a 'back to nature' vibe, this diverse lifestyle opportunity offers so much to a new custodian with options to continue the existing business or tailor to other markets.

Extending to around 45 acres in total, Retorrick Mill is best described as: Part farm, part live music venue, part campsite, part self-catering accommodation and part wedding venue.

Approached over a country lane which terminates at the property, the differing elements of the business are centred around the heart of the property, in the base of the valley alongside the stream. Here one finds six 2 bedroom holiday chalets and the fabulous bar, restaurant and music venue with ancillary buildings and grounds.

Rising up the southern side of the valley with lovely views to woodland is a selection of 2 and 3 bedroom holiday static caravans and two timber holiday cabins, one with 2 bedrooms and the other with 3.

A short walk from the hub of the site and approached through a woodland walk over the stream is a wild campsite with consent for 15 pitches. The shower block and wc's are located to the rear of the main building.

Cottages - Close to the entrance of Retorrick Mill are two cottages, The Granary and Mill Cottage.

The Granary is a traditional, extended cottage that forms the owner's residence offering well-presented 2/3 bedroom accommodation, complemented by an open plan kitchen/dining room, sitting room, conservatory, study and storage area.

Directly alongside is Mill Cottage, a single storey 3 bedroom cottage with open plan living area and an attached car port/garage. Mill Cottage is currently let as a holiday cottage.

The Land - The land extends to 45.16 acres (18.28 hectares). It is predominately sloping land on both sides of the valley with the buildings and camping areas sited alongside the stream in the more level valley bottom. It comprises: 21.85 acres of farmable pasture and arable land, approximately 11.4 acres of broadleaf woodlands in 4 parcels, 4.7 acres of gorse along the northern boundary of the farm and just under 7 acres of amenity land, with an attractive pond, stream, wedding garden, tracks and camping together with areas occupied by buildings.

Over the years the vendor has either used the land for his own livestock and farm enterprises or rented some of the land to excellent neighbouring graziers. (Purchasers are likely to be able to continue this arrangement if desired). Subject to obtaining the necessary consents there is also potential to expand the camping areas if desired, or as is the current scenario, make use of the 28-day rule.

Whilst the land is generally productive farmland, it also provides excellent privacy and a buffer from the surrounding world. There is an 'away from it all' atmosphere at the property with some amazing vantage points and wonderful nature walks alongside the stream and through historic woodland that is teeming with wildlife and a wide variety of flora that changes with the seasons.

Agriculture And Environmental Subsidy Schemes - The land is registered for Basic Payment Scheme entitlements. The entitlements for this scheme may be available for purchase by separate negotiation. A five year Mid Tier Countryside Stewardship Scheme runs on most of the land until 31st December 2025, with most of the options involving agreeing to only use very low levels of Nitrogen fertilizer and various management obligations of the farms hedgerows. Further information on the detail of these schemes is available upon request. Further options to earn environmental subsidies are likely in the future.

The Business - The business has been established over a number of years with the intention of providing affordable family holidays in this very special rural location. The self-catering income stream emanates from wild camping, static caravans, cabins, chalets and Mill Cottage.

Retorrick Mill has also developed an envied reputation as a live music venue, centred around the hub building where there is a licenced bar and stage facilities. The vendor runs regular live and recorded music events.

The wedding and events arm of the business has grown in recent years with onward bookings from couples and families looking for a relaxed celebration.

The vendor is very much a 'hands-on' host, driven by his desire to 'live the dream' at Retorrick Mill and share the experience of this incomparable venue.
