General Comments - Kestle House is an absolute gem. Situated in a beautiful and quiet rural setting, tucked away in a hamlet location on the south Cornish coast just inland from Mevagissey. This attractive property is notable for its stone elevations with red brick lintels and slate window sills and delightfully nestled into the landscape with open countryside on two sides and set in a plot with immaculate west facing gardens as well as parking for 3 or 4 cars and a detached workshop. This is the epitome of a Cornish country cottage however extremely rare to find such a fine example matched by such a superb location and position.
The property offers four bedrooms (three doubles) as well as a large bathroom to the first floor. To the ground floor there are two receptions which include a lounge with gorgeous inglenook fireplace, dining room, kitchen with a Rayburn, utility and cloakroom to the ground floor.
Kestle - The property lies just under two miles from the village of Gorran Churchtown where there is an excellent primary school whilst the larger harbour side communities Gorran Haven and Mevagissey are both about two miles respectively.
The community is full of a variety of local facilities for daily needs whilst St. Austell and the Eden project lies about seven miles to the east and the city of Truro with its cathedral and its fine shopping centre lies about fifteen miles to the west.
Other scenic attractions in the area include superb cliff top walks along the nearby heritage coastline together with the famous Lost Garden of Heligan which are about two miles away and the beaches in the area include Porthluney at Caerhayes and Hemmick at Gorran Haven.
The Roseland - The Roseland Peninsula is scheduled as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and is renowned for its many scenic attractions both inland and along the coast. The beaches at Carne and Pendower are within driving distance from the property and all the harbourside villages such as Portloe, Portholland, Portscatho and St. Mawes are all within range. The tidal saltings at Ruanlanihorne at the head of the creek are also a significant local feature and there are good sailing facilities at Percuil and St. Mawes. The nearest commercial airport is Newquay (about twenty five miles).
