The exclusive Cornish coastal village of St Mawes was voted in 2020 by a Which? Customer Survey as the "Top Seaside Town in the UK". This enchanting south facing harbour village, named "Britain's St Tropez" by the Daily Mail, is found on the eastern side of the Fal Estuary, in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Much of its surroundings are owned by the National Trust. The village is centred round its quaint harbour, its own beaches and castle. The village has superbly varied and accessible sailing waters and an active sailing club with a full programme of village regattas, club races and various national championships to cater for all ages. There is an all-year-round pedestrian ferry service to and from Falmouth and a seasonal ferry runs to Place, providing access to the scenic walks on the National Trust owned St Anthony Headland.

Historical Note
The original property was built in 1929. During 2002 to 2004, under planning application CI/FP131/0494/02, a major reconstruction to the main house including the addition of a two bedroom annexe was built by a local highly regarded building firm. The re-modelling and refurbishment included a new roof, heating system and bathrooms as seen today.In 2012 to 2013, under planning permission PA12/05126, the old hut in the grounds was demolished and a new detached chalet was built as 'ancillary' accommodation to the main residence.
Description
Pendragon's location, in our opinion, is second to none. It offers the best of all worlds, from accessibility to the river, seclusion via its mature gardens, breath-taking and tranquil water and countryside views. Highly versatile and adaptable light and airy family sized accommodation yet within a relatively level walk past Summers Beach to shops, restaurants and a wide range of central village amenities within this exclusive Cornish coastal village.The property has been designed to capture the most of the spectacular views as well as cater for easily manageable accommodation for the retired couple as well as provide ample independent living and bedroom space for the large family. Castaway, the detached chalet, offers an excellent retreat for guests, family or au-pair.
Summary
This boating enthusiasts dream has ample boat storage as well as car parking and direct water access across the river footpath from the bottom of its gardens onto its mooring and own foreshore to mean low water. Pendragon's privacy and location capture the aura, peace and tranquillity provided by the beautiful setting and views.
The Views
The uninterrupted and panoramic views enjoyed from the majority of the rooms in the property as well as its gardens, terraces and chalet are captivating and inspiring. Mere photography does not do them justice. These encompass a 180-degree expanse of the deep waters of the Percuil River including Pelyn and Porth creeks and the National Trust owned lightly wooded St Anthony Headland, views of which should be there in perpetuity - a very significant attribute. The river is a hive of wildlife and marine activity most of the year.
