DESCRIPTION

Lower Trevedran Farmhouse, between Lamorna and is a historian’s delight. It is supposed that it was built around 1245 with some of its very oldest parts still remaining. Particularly in evidence when considering the open fireplace. Much more of Lower Trevedran Farmhouse has been updated over recent times but is now in need of complete renovation and improvement. One of the very oldest buildings in St Buryan, Lower Trevedran Farmhouse is believed to have been owned previously by the Vyvyan family who came to Trevedran after coming to from with the Normans. The gardens are situated to the front of the house and offer plentiful space for entertaining and relaxing in this beautiful, serene and captivating environment. An amazing and once in a lifetime opportunity.

LOCATION

Trevedran Farm is idyllically situated with southerly views over countryside to the sea and is only a short walk from St Loy’s Cove. The property is positioned in some of the most unspoilt and little populated countryside available anywhere in the British Isles although it could never be considered remote with simple access to nearby St Buryan, and . The property is within walking distance of the South West Coast Footpath which runs around the entirety of Cornwall leading along the rugged cliff tops before descending into beautiful coves and wooded valleys including Lamorna – famous for its potteries, and where the original Cable and Wireless transatlantic cables were laid from. On the cliff above Porthcurno is the magical Minack open air theatre which often delights audiences with basking sharks and pods of dolphins as the backdrop to performances. Much of the coastline and indeed areas inland are owned by the National Trust whilst Whitesands Bay, Cove and Land’s End are all within a 10 to 15 minute drive.

The village of St Buryan has day to day facilities whilst Newlyn and Penzance form effectively one large town which acts as the capital for West Cornwall. Newlyn has a deep history of art and , whilst Penzance has more extensive facilities, hospitals, primary and secondary schooling (including private education) and the rail terminus for the Penzance to Paddington line ( around 5½ hours). Just off the road to Penzance is the picture postcard of which attracts huge crowds each winter with its Christmas lights set around the delightful harbour.
