Location - Situated within the Caerhays Estate, this property is a testament to Cornwall's allure. The property is set within totally rural surroundings and yet one of the most notable attractions of the position is the proximity to the southwest coast path and the beaches of Portholland and Porthluney (Caerhays) which is exceptional. There is a pleasant walk of just over half a mile to the enchanting Portholland Cove with its sandy beach and a further walk of two miles along the coast to Porthluney beach with its popular cafe.

At Gorran Churchtown there is a parish church, public house and a local primary school and in Gorran Haven there is a bakery and various other facilities including those geared to the tourist industry. Whilst Tregony also has a primary school and The Roseland Academy for older children, a public house, church, social club, post office and shop.

Notwithstanding the quiet nature of the location the hamlet is easily accessible to both Truro and St. Austell and both of these busy centres are within approximately half an hour driving distance. Other attractions of the area include The Lost Gardens of Heligan and Lobbs farm shop as well as the Eden Project which is just east of St. Austell. The whole area is recognised as being of outstanding natural beauty and this includes the entirety of the nearby Roseland Peninsula.

Caerhays Estate - The Estate is located in the sheltered Porthluney valley on the south Cornish coast, equal distance between St. Austell and the county town of Truro. It has been in the Williams family since 1855 and today welcomes over 15000 visitors a year to the internationally renowned gardens and castle during the spring.

Truro - Truro is renowned for its excellent shopping centre, fine selection of restaurants, bars, private and state schools and main line railway link to London (Paddington).
