LOCATION The Development Site is very well located on the highly regarded Bissoe Road and is within walking distance of the various village facilities in Carnon Downs including a good sized village shop, dentist and doctors. Just a short drive away are the lovely old inns of The Punchbowl and Ladle at Penelewey and the Old Quay Inn just above the creek at Devoran. The surrounding countryside has numerous footpaths and bridleways including some that run along the edge of the surrounding creeks to Roundwood, Cowlands and the National Trust owned Trelissick House Estate where there is a south facing beach looking down the Carrick Roads. This exclusive area is edged by water with excellent boating facilities nearby at Loe Beach where there is a sailing school and hire centre with café that is a hub during the summer. The beautiful Restronguet Creek opens onto the Carrick Roads (Fal Estuary) which provides some of the most picturesque and sheltered sailing waters anywhere in the United Kingdom. Larger yachts can be kept either at moorings or on the pontoon berths at Mylor Yacht Harbour or at Falmouth, both of which are around 15 minutes’ drive away. One of the main draws to this area is that Cornwall’s capital city, Truro, is only about 5 minutes’ drive away with the fullest range of shopping, cafés, bars, restaurants, entertainments, sports facilities and schooling in Cornwall along with the main hospital, a multi-screen cinema, theatre, flagship Marks & Spencer store, a Waitrose store and a station on the main Penzance to Paddington line. Falmouth is Cornwall’s largest port but also has wonderful shopping, cafés, bars and restaurants many of which overlook the harbour or the beaches along Falmouth Bay. A short trip on the King Harry Car Ferry opens up the Roseland Peninsula which is one of the least populated areas of Cornwall and here there are also blissful walks, many beaches and the upmarket harbourside sailing village of St Mawes. 3 Ref: LCAA8326 4 Ref: LCAA8326 For reference only, not to form any part of a sales contract. 5 Ref: LCAA8326 Not to scale – for identification purposes only. 6 Ref: LCAA8326 Not to scale – for identification purposes only. 7 Ref: LCAA8326 Not to scale – for identification purposes only. 8 Ref: LCAA8326 Not to scale – for identification purposes only. 9 Ref: LCAA8326 Not to scale – for identification purposes only. 10 Ref: LCAA8326 Not to scale – for identification purposes only. 11 Ref: LCAA8326 PLANNING HISTORY Reserved matters of appearance, landscaping, layout and scale in respect of outline decision PA16/06449 dated 29.06.2018 for construction of 10 homes for elderly people with manager’s office and community lounge.
