Location - The property lies in an enviable position close to the edge of the Seaton River Valley, with the River Seaton cascading through the valley floor to the beautiful beaches at Seaton and Downderry only 5 miles to the south. This location is accessible with the A38 only 2 miles to the north, however it is truly rural and there is a wide network of footpaths, bridleways and quiet lanes within the valley providing wonderful opportunities for nature lovers and outdoor/equestrian enthusiasts.
The village of Widegates has a primary school rated "good" by Ofsted. There is also a local farm shop, with popular café at Widegates catering for most day to day needs and the nearby village of Hessenford has a church and popular riverside public house.
The town of Looe straddles the wide river with its long bridge and stone harbourside which remains important today as a commercial fishing facility, with a thriving tourist industry and popular with boating enthusiasts. On the edge of the town is a branch line railway station which links with the main line at Liskeard (Plymouth to London Paddington 3 hours).
The coastline either side of Looe is beautiful and unspoilt, easily accessible via the South West Coast Path and the substantial areas of ownership held by the National Trust. There are excellent bathing beaches with opportunities for surfing and kayaking etc. In addition there is a fabulous clifftop golf course at Portwrinkle (7 miles) and superb golf and leisure facilities at St Mellion International Golf Resort (14 miles) with its unique 4-star facilities including an AA luxury hotel, leisure centre, Elemis day spa, tennis courts, a European Tour golf course, a brasserie and an award-winning restaurant. For those with boating interests there are a wide range of marinas around Plymouth's waterfront to suit all types of craft.
Access to the area is good with main roads leading to the A38, west of Plymouth. The market town of Liskeard, to the north, includes a wide range of facilities as does the town of Saltash with a Waitrose store on its northern outskirts. The City of Plymouth lies within commuting distance and has an extensive and historic waterfront together with an excellent range of shopping, educational and recreational facilities. In addition there is a cross channel ferry link at Plymouth with regular services to France and Northern Spain
