Ref: LCAA5582 Guide £850,000 Ref: LCAA5582 Guide £850,000 Pencoose, Nr. Tregony, Roseland Peninsula, Cornwall FREEHOLD To be sold for the first time in almost 40 years: a splendid and extremely elegant detached period farmhouse in immaculate level gardens and grounds of about 1 acre, with a range of outbuildings including a delightful self-contained 1 bedroomed holiday letting annexe, double garage, workshop, store and former piggery. 2 Ref: LCAA5582 SUMMARY OF ACCOMMODATION Ground Floor: entrance hallway, generous sitting room, snug, kitchen/breakfast room, study, large conservatory, utility, wc/shower room. First Floor: galleried landing, master bedroom with built-in wardrobes, 3 further bedrooms, good sized family bathroom, wc. Outside: double garage, self-contained 1 bedroomed annexe, barn/workshop, former piggery. Standing in extensive, prolifically stocked gardens including a variety of lawned areas, patio, orchard, raised vegetable beds as well as rear entrance/driveway all surrounded by beautiful borders and hedgerows with views out over the adjoining Caerhays Estate land. 3 Ref: LCAA5582 DESCRIPTION Pencoose is a fantastic example of a detached rural Victorian farmhouse with self- contained holiday letting facility, outbuildings and immaculately presented formal gardens surrounded by beautiful rural countryside owned as part of the Caerhays Estate. Having been in the same ownership for almost 40 years, the house has been well maintained throughout and retains a great deal of period features throughout as well as updated works that include modern and contemporary finishes that complement the size and scale of accommodation. Pencoose sits within approximately 1 acre of formal gardens in turn surrounded by rural countryside and benefits from a high degree of privacy being just one of two properties at the end of this farm lane. Pencoose further benefits from a recently constructed two storey building that provides double garage to the ground floor and separately accessed self-contained one bedroom holiday accommodation to the first floor with kitchen, living room and large bedroom suite with en-suite shower room which has been run as a successful holiday letting business. As well as this there are two unconverted outbuildings, one of which being a large store which subject to the necessary consents could well be utilised as a further holiday letting unit or alternative use. One of the major features of Pencoose has to be the beautifully landscaped and lovingly planted gardens that are the pride and joy of the current owners and provide huge 4 Ref: LCAA5582 potential for enjoyment of the various areas including immaculate lawns, patioed sun terrace, orchards and vegetable patch with raised beds. LOCATION Pencoose is located in the midst of one of Cornwall’s least spoilt areas – the Roseland Peninsula. The house is about 3½ miles in land from the beaches at Portholland and Caerhays Castle at the head of Porthluney Cove. The privately owned Caerhays Castle estate regularly opens its beautiful gardens which were designed by John Nash around 200 years ago. The families that have owned the estate, and indeed the estate buildings themselves are prominent throughout the history of Cornwall and still are today. Porthluney Cove beach is a mix of shingle and sand and is well sheltered making it ideal for swimming and children to play, as well as being the nearest available place to launch a boat. The small historic community at East and West Portholland appears as if it were stuck in time, and indeed much of the surrounding area is completely unspoilt with very little settlement apart from farms. The nearest services are at Tregony which is about 1 mile away where there is primary and secondary schooling, an inn, general stores, doctors and dentists. There are country pubs at Ruanlanihorne at the head of the Fal Estuary, Veryan and the picturesque hamlet of Philleigh. Closer to the tip of the Roseland Peninsula are the joined villages of Gerrans and Porthscatho set around a harbour and cove with longer beaches available at Pendower, Carne and Porthbeor. 5 Ref: LCAA5582 For many the upmarket sailing community of St Mawes requires little introduction as it is set around a sheltered and picturesque natural harbour at the mouth of the Percuil River which gives safe mooring for yachts. The river opens at the mouth of the Fal Estuary (Carrick Roads) which offers some of the finest and safest day sailing waters in the United Kingdom. Regular racing is organised by St Mawes Sailing Club and there is also an extremely active and well attended children’s sailing school with a windsurfing school further up the Percuil River. In addition, St Mawes also has various restaurants, hotels and cafés as well as beaches. Truro is about a 20 minutes’ drive away and is Cornwall’s capital city, having the largest range of commercial, professional, shopping and entertainment facilities in the county along with supermarkets and trading estates on its outskirts. There are three private schools around the city catering for all needs. In the centre is a flagship Marks & Spencer store, a multi screen cinema and the Hall for Cornwall Theatre. Truro’s cobbled Georgian and Victorian streets are also home to many cafés and an ever expanding range of excellent restaurants.

    THE FLOWERS THAT BLOOM IN THE SPRING A six day tour to enjoy the cream of Cornish Gardens and the Music of London Festival Opera 24th to 29th April 2022 St Mawes here better to enjoy the arrival of spring than in Cornwall. The county has more than its fair share of marvellous gardens, in part thanks to the warmth CORNWALL W St Austell brought to its shores by the Gulf Stream. From our central base, the stylish and The Lost Gardens Caerhays Estate of Heligan unique Tresanton Hotel in the lovely small port of St Mawes, we will explore Lamorran Gardens St Just in Roseland St Mawes some of the finest and most beautiful gardens, and always close by will be the Glendurgan Estate sea, providing the most dramatic of backdrops to the botanical wonders. For us one of the most important rules in organising a botanical tour is that it should not be rushed. So, apart from a guided tour of the gardens there will also be free time to explore individually, take in the vistas and sit and wonder at what nature and man have created. Nowhere, is this more important than at the Lost Gardens of Heligan. The extensive work carried out here over the last twenty years is truly phenomenal and cannot be appreciated in a fleeting visit. Likewise, the extensive ravine and cliffside gardens of Glendurgan need time to appreciate as you make your way down to the sea. A highlight for many will be our day at Caerhays Castle and Garden. Designated by Kew as being a garden of outstanding importance and covering some 120 acres, the unique microclimate here at this private garden has produced something rather unique.

  • Open Gardens Visit Beautiful Gardens, Support Cornwall Hospice Care
    Open Gardens Visit beautiful gardens, support Cornwall Hospice Care Title sponsor www.cornwallhospicecare.co.uk/opengardens 40 years ago Enid Dalton-White MBE, one of the pioneers who ensured the vision of a hospice for Cornwall, invited visitors to the grounds of her home in Polruan to raise vital funds to build Mount Edgcumbe Hospice. She set a trend that continues today through our Open Gardens scheme, now in its 9th year. A long-standing supporter of the charity and the Open Gardens campaign is Cornish gardener, George Kestell; As I look out of the office window across my own garden, I see the range of Hellebores, Camellias and Snowdrops all set off by the dark purple of the Pittosporum. These winter flowers keep me going through the tough times. Lately everyone has been affected by the Coronavirus crisis, lockdown has been difficult for many, but these winter gems have been a source of delight. Unfortunately, charities like Cornwall Hospice Care are struggling, beds are under threat due to the closure of shops and limited fundraising opportunities. However, this Cornish healthcare charity is to me like these winter flowers, there to help us through the tough times. Having received support from the hospice I know everyone involved in this charity does an amazing amount of work to help both patients and their families in the hospices and through community support. Hopefully within the next couple of months some sort of ‘normality’ can resume, the weather will be warmer and all the lovely gardens in this guide will be bursting with colour and with friends and families enjoying their delights.
