THE LOCATION Helford Passage nestles on the banks of the beautiful river Helford, with a sandy beach and direct access to the South West Coastal Path. There's plenty to do on site including hire of kayaks or paddle boards to get you out on the water and a heated outdoor swimming pool.

The Helford River is a very special place. Not only is it designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty but also a site of special scientific interest and special area of conservation where, uniquely, major environmental groups and organisations come together to protect, monitor and develop the river and its surrounds.

The Helford River and, in particular Helford Passage is a remarkably sought-after area for many reasons. Perhaps its greatest asset is the tranquillity of the location which has changed little over the years with colour washed thatched and slate roofed cottages clustered around the tidal creek leading south from the main river. Families return to Helford year after year and generation after generation to take advantage of the exceptional sheltered creeks and inlets off the Helford River, which is ideal for day sailing. The river also caters for larger yachts who enjoy its sheltered anchorages and moorings with several beaches near the mouth.

The river opens into Falmouth Bay from where the Carrick Roads with Falmouth and at its mouth, and the River , are both within easy sailing distance, as are many beaches and coves along the coastline. Parts of the surrounding area are owned by The National Trust and the continues along the edge of the Helford River towards the bustling port of Falmouth.

The Ferryboat Inn fronts the beach and specialises in seafood dishes. A passenger ferry links Helford Passage to Helford Village on the other side of the river where The Shipwright's Arms inn sits beside the water's edge and there is also a local village shop. Falmouth five miles away is renowned for its beautiful period buildings and wonderful sailing waters; a true sailor's town Falmouth has seen a renaissance over the past fifteen years and offers a vast array of bars, restaurants and pubs to suit all tastes. Famed for its many festivals and regattas, the town also offers a good selection of shops, from boutiques to high street retailers.

THE PROPERTY Ferryman's Rest is a delightful first-floor courtyard apartment at Helford Passage, in a perfect position for catching the late afternoon sun from its 20' long balcony. The Old Sail Loft was once used to house the sails from the boats moored in, and visiting, Helford Passage. It was later converted into comfortable holiday accommodation. This light, seaside themed apartment has a comfortable living room with electric fire for those chilly spring and autumn evenings and two bedrooms, making it a great venue for couples or small families. This is an ideal opportunity to purchase a home for holidays with great potential for holiday letting income. The apartment sleeps four in two bedrooms and comes comfortably furnished and equipped.
