Uniquely placed in the heart of the unspoilt 18th century harbourside village of Charlestown, a world heritage site, Seagull Cottage and Dolphin Cottage recently restored Grade II listed barns along with the owners red brick and stone farmhouse set amidst peaceful countryside is one of the oldest dwellings in the village.
Just a couple of minutes stroll from the sand and pebble beaches and coastal path, there is also a footpath running through the property leading to Carlyon Bay and several good restaurants.
The conservation area focuses around the quayside which is the home port for a famous collection of Square Sail tall ships and still survives as a working harbour today.

Outside storage can also be made available for bicycles, canoes and boat trailers. In the owners private garden, as a keen member of the Cornwall Beekeepers Association they keep beehives.

St Austell, 2 miles, has a good choice of supermarkets and shops, a railway station, 4 golf courses and the Eden Project and Lost Gardens of Heligan are within a 10 - 15 minute drive. Newquay Airport and the North Coast is only 30 minutes away.
