The Land
A safe haven away from passing traffic and sloping gently to the east, the land is ideal for those keeping ponies, growing or other amenity, and is contained within traditional stone Cornish hedges. There are six usable fields for grazing, five of which lie to the south and east of the main cottage and extend to about 2.4 acres and a further field laid to grass is situated on the west of the land parcel extending to about 0.6 acres and is affectionately known as 'hotel field'. The remaining 10 acres or thereabouts is rough land where nature has taken over, although part of this land adjacent to the entrance drive was reclaimed in years gone by for cattle grazing.

Situation
The property is conveniently positioned to access the vibrant harbour town of Falmouth, the market town of Helston, and the nearby town of Redruth which offers everyday amenities to include primary and secondary schools, shopping and banking facilities and a main line rail connection from Penzance up to London Paddington. Approximately five miles from Redruth is the north coastal village of Portreath which offers a popular surfing beach and beautiful coastal and harbour walks.
