LOCATION

The Old Carthouse is situated to the north of Penzance in a quiet rural hamlet surrounded by lovely open countryside. Penzance is the nearest town and offers a wide range of leisure, commercial and retail facilities including a marina, gorgeous golden sand beaches and a 3 Ref: LCAA6401 picturesque promenade. To the east is with the iconic St Michael’s Mount which sits from the shoreline in Mounts Bay. To the north east lies the resort town of St Ives which sits on the opposite coast facing the Atlantic and offers excellent surfing/bathing together with restaurants, shops, inns and the renowned Tate St Ives and all the other facilities commensurate with this popular seaside resort.

Penzance has a mainline railway station which is the final stop on the Penzance to London Paddington line. This provides a swift link direct to the capital (approximate travel time 4½ hours), the A30 runs through Penzance and acts as the main arterial road in and out of Cornwall, remaining largely dual carriageway all the way to Exeter where it joins the M5 to Bristol and the A303 to London. In addition there are a myriad of other facilities nearby including a wonderful selection of rugged sandy beaches including Porthcurno with its iconic Minack Theatre above, inspiring coastal walks on the South West Coastal Footpath and there are beautiful established woods at the nearby Trevaylor.
