A COMMENT FROM THE VENDORS 'Our six month search ended when we drove along a wooded drive bounded by a stream. It led to an open meadow, bathed in sunshine, with a house set up high overlooking ancient Polwheveral Wood; home to Owls and Buzzards. A short walk along a path led to a beautiful creek, the mouth of which is opposite Frenchmans Creek, immortalized by the novel by Daphne du Maurier, all within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The moment we saw this idyllic situation we knew that this was where we wanted our new home to be. We have direct access to numerous scenic walks, and our boat on the creek gives us the freedom to explore the Helford River where we can pull up on one of its many quiet beaches for a picnic, go fishing or just enjoy the wonderful scenery'. SITUATION An exceptional country residence in one of the finest locations in This fine country house offers a peaceful setting with a high level of privacy without being isolated. The popular village of Constantine (www.constantinecornwall.com) provides local with walking access to Polwheveral Creek, off the Helford facilities and amenities including a primary school, shops, doctors surgery, village hall and the famous Tolmen Centre. It is a pleasant walk to two public houses.
