Description

The approximate size can be seen in the photos but to be agreed with the seller.

LOCATION
The quaint rural village of Gweek nestles within a sheltered sylvan valley setting at the tidal limits of the Helford River. The superb day sailing waters can be accessed via the nearby boatyard, where the river meanders along the scenic shoreline and eventually flows into Falmouth Bay. The area offers many splendid walks nearby, such as the famous Cornish footpath giving access to both north and south shorelines of the Helford River. The area is a natural haven for wildlife along the sheltered creeks, and the village hosts the National Seal Sanctuary which is an enormous attraction for summer visitors. The village offers a public house, local shop, cafe and a local bus service to Helston and Falmouth areas. The well respected market town of Helston is only approx six miles distant offering an eclectic array of shops, schools and national supermarkets.
