Ref: LCAA1820 Ref: LCAA6390 £430,000 Tollgate Farmhouse, Lostwithiel, Cornwall FREEHOLD A former farmhouse on the Boconnoc Estate occupying a peaceful and scenic rural setting in approximately ½ an acre gardens amidst glorious open countryside. A picturesque 3 double bedroomed (with potential to extend subject to consent), extended house facing due south with panoramic views over open fields. Ref: LCAA6390 2 SUMMARY OF ACCOMMODATION Ground Floor: entrance hall, shower room, sitting room, dining room, kitchen/breakfast room. First Floor: 3 double bedrooms, family bathroom. Outside: large attached garage, well landscaped gardens approaching ½ an acre with views over the surrounding countryside. DESCRIPTION Occupying a truly exceptional and beautiful rural setting surrounded by completely unspoilt farmland interspersed with ancient woodland, the epitome of rural peace and tranquillity. Formerly a farmhouse on the Boconnoc Estate and believed to date from the mid 1700’s, the property has since been refurbished and extended now providing extremely comfortable three double bedroomed accommodation with large open-plan living areas, open beams, fireplaces and modern kitchen and sanitaryware. The property offers excellent potential for further extension (subject to any necessary consents), and is set towards the back of around ½ an acre of lovely gardens comprising open sweeping lawns interspersed with flower/shrub beds and fruit trees. NB: There is a live planning permission and we understand foundations have been laid for a conservatory to be added to the front of the property. Ref: LCAA6390 3 LOCATION Situated on the north east side of the picturesque town of Lostwithiel the cottage enjoys easy access to the local amenities whilst providing an extremely private and peaceful rural setting which would be the perfect retreat for many, away from the normal hussle and bustle of everyday life. Lostwithiel provides an excellent array of day to day shopping facilities, local inns, restaurants and a church that still bears the scars of battles during the Civil War. This ancient village was once the county capital of Cornwall and thus has a rich history. Situated on the upper tidal reaches of the River Fowey there are beautiful walks to be had along the banks and at high tide, boats can navigate their way downstream to the wide estuary and town of Fowey which provides an active yacht club and bustling port and town. There is a primary school on the edge of Lostwithiel, nearest to Tollgate Farmhouse which would be a short drive along the country lane to reach. The nearby A38 accesses Plymouth and then provides a dual carriageway link to Exeter and onwards via the M5 to Bristol and A303 to London. To the south west lies Newquay Airport providing daily shuttle flights to Gatwick and European destinations.

  • Cornwall and Isles of Scilly Landscape Character Study
    CORNWALL AND ISLES OF SCILLY LANDSCAPE CHARACTER STUDY Landscape Character Area Description LCA - Fowey Valley LCA No CA21 JCA Constituent LDUs Total 11: 243, 252, 253, 254, 255, 377U, 378, 379, 382, 383, 386 © Crown copyright. All rights reserved. Cornwall County Council 100019590, 2008. Location This area comprises the river system of the River Fowey and its tributaries from Bodmin Moor (LCA32) and the eastern plateau (LCA 22 South East Cornwall Plateau) and includes the estate parkland of Lanhydrock (National Trust). Designations 5 LDUs are partly covered by the Cornwall AONB designation; 2 contain SSSIs; 2 are partly covered by the Gribbin Head to Polperro Heritage Coast designation. One LDU contains a SACs site and 1 an NNR; 7 contain SMs and 5 CGS. Description This Landscape Character Area is comprised of the River Fowey and its tributaries and the Fowey ria, the latter of which is navigable and the former non navigable. The upper tributaries of the River Fowey flow from Bodmin Moor through steep sided and heavily wooded stream valleys with a strong sense of enclosure. These tributaries flow into the main channel of the Fowey which winds east to west through the Glynn Valley. The valley widens out into the mature parkland ornamental landscape of Lanhydrock House with its woodland conifer plantations and more recent shelter belts. Past Lanhydrock, the River turns south towards Lostwithiel and flows through well wooded farmland, grading into the Fowey ria across a floodplain of wet woodland, wetland, saltmarsh and then intertidal mudflats. The ria tributaries flow from the plateau ground to the east and west with the main creeks of Penpol, Pont Pill and Lerryn, on the eastern side of the river, flowing from the South East Cornwall Plateau (LCA 22).

  • Pigot 1830 Lostwithiel
    Extract from Pigot’s Directory of Cornwall, 1830 (pages 151-152) Lostwithiel A small market town, borough and parish, is in the east division of Powder hundred; 236 miles from London, 63 from Exeter, and six from Bodmin. The town is situated in a very pleasant valley, and on the banks of the river Fowey, which is navigable at high water, for barges, as high as the bridge here. Lostwithiel is a town of considerable antiquity; the dukes of Cornwall formerly had a palace here, the external walls of which are still standing, and form part of a building for the security of prisoners brought here for trial at the sessions, holden at Midsummer and Christmas; it is also one of the original coinage towns, though no coinages have of late years taken place in it. The charter making this a corporate town is of very remote date; the corporation consists of a mayor, six capital burgesses, and 17 assistants or common councilmen; and the right of electing the members of parliament belongs to these 24 persons; the mayor is the returning officer; the present representatives are, Lord Valletort and the Hon. E. Cust. As regards trade, this may be considered a thriving and still improving little town; there are extensive tan-yards, good woolstapling concerns, and very considerable business is transacted in coal and timber; a great quantity of lime is also burnt here, and disseminated through the neighbouring country for manure. The church, which is dedicated to St Bartholomew, and situated in the centre of the town, is much admired for its beautiful Gothic tower and elegant spire.

    EA-S'oU fh \K/£c>t LEAPs £ 0 x ^ 1 SEATON, LOOE AND FOWEY CATCHMENT MANAGEMENT PLAN CONSULTATION REPORT “ ■€ National Rivers Authority South Western Region NRA Copyright Waiver This report is intended to be used widely and may be quoted, copied or reproduced in any way, provided that the extracts are not quoted out of context and that due acknowledgement is given to the National Rivers Authority. Published December 1994 Foreword The Seaton, Looe and Fowey is the first group of catchments for which the NRA’s Cornwall Area is preparing a Catchment Management Plan (CMP). The preparation of this plan is part of a national programme to prepare CMP’s for all catchments in England and Wales over the next 5 years. An important part of the Catchment Management Plan process is public consultation which is designed to allow those who live in, or use, the catchment to have an input into the development of NRA plans and work programmes. The Consultation Report includes relevant information about the catchment and lists the issues identified by the NRA which need to be addressed. Following the public consultation period the NRA will produce a Final Plan which will set out targets for action by the NRA and others over the coming years. We intend to set up Steering Groups comprising representatives of organisations and interests in the catchment to monitor progress. The Seaton, Looe and Fowey catchments are essentially high quality environments and the NRA’s vision is one of maintaining and reinforcing current high standards and ensuring that the character of the water related environments is maintained.
