LOCATION The position and setting of Sithney Green Mill is as enchanting as it is rare, approached along a quiet lightly wooded country lane off the A394 Helston to Penzance road yet only 2 miles from the famous market town of Helston in the heart of the former historic and picturesque Trevarno Estate. The setting of a property is often said to be its greatest asset and that is certainly true as far as Sithney Green Mill is concerned with the property offering total peace, tranquillity with the benefits of rural country living, yet providing immediate proximity and access to the main routes to Penzance, Falmouth, the north Cornish coastline and of course the Lizard Peninsula. Countless sandy beaches along the south Cornish coastline are within particularly easy reach including Perran Sands, Praa Sands and Porthleven Sands along with a number of intriguing Cornish coves, many in coastal areas which are owned by the National Trust such as Prussia Cove, Rinsey Head, Gunwalloe fishing cove, Church Cove, Polurrian Cove and Mullion Cove. The market town of Helston provides an excellent range of amenities including local and national stores including supermarkets catering for most day to day requirements together with secondary schools, a sports centre with indoor swimming pool. The town is proud of its heritage and its excellent folk museum and of course, it plays host to the world famous Flora Day. The nearest mainline rail link can be found at Redruth, approximately 10 miles away, on the Penzance to Paddington line – London approximately 4½ hours by rail.
