A pair of high hand built oak gates open from the village road onto a level parking area. A stone cobbled pathway leads through the garden to the cottage. The colourful gardens are predominantly lawn with a variety of established shrub and flower beds. There are two paved patios together with a raised deck from which one can enjoy a view into Cawsand Bay.
Location
Vine Cottage is located in one of the most beautiful parts of Cornwall. It lies 200 yards from the waters edge in the picturesque village of Cawsand, the entire village is a designated Conservation Area and directly adjoins the sheltered and crystal clear waters of Plymouth Sound with the Mount Edgecumbe Estate providing a verdant and sylvan backcloth.
Steeped in history, Cawsand together with its neighbour Kingsand are the quintessential Cornish seaside villages intertwined by narrow streets with "chocolate box" fisherman's cottages. The 630 mile long South West Coast Path can be accessed 135 yards from the property. From here one can enjoy views across the bay to Fort Picklecombe, the Mount Edgcumbe Estate, Plymouth Breakwater, the City of Plymouth and Dartmoor on the horizon. For those with boating interests there are a wide range of marinas around Plymouth's waterfront to suit all types of craft with many places to explore by boat including the River Yealm, the River Tamar and of course Fowey Harbour all suitable for day sailing.
The villages of Kingsand and Cawsand both have a welcoming community, are home to the Rame Gig Club and are well equipped with a variety of local shops, pubs and restaurants together with a sailing club and other facilities. A pedestrian ferry lands on Cawsand Beach and provides a very convenient link landing directly on Plymouth's historic Barbican.
The Rame Peninsula is relatively little known, often described as 'Cornwall's forgotten corner', forming part of the Cornwall Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty with quiet beaches and outlined by the South West Coastal Path. The broad sweep of Whitsand Bay boasts over three miles of golden sands with seasonal rnli Lifeguards and the crystal clear waters are renowned for bathing, surfing, kayaking and all manner of watersports. The Mount Edgcumbe Country Park, an 800 acre area of coastal woodland and open hillsides, is possibly one of the most beautiful and varied locations of Cornwall, lies on the edge of the village.
Nearby St Mellion International Golf Resort offers unique 4-star facilities including an Elemis day spa and a European Tour golf course in addition the Whitsand Bay Golf Club at Portwrinkle (7 miles) is a fabulous clifftop course with awe inspirning views over the bay. Independent schools are available at Tavistock and Plymouth.
Plymouth has a long and historic waterfront together with a mainline railway station (Plymouth to London Paddington 3 hours) and a cross channel ferry port with services to France and Northern Spain. International flights are available from Newquay (44 miles) and Exeter (55 miles). The fabulous harbour side town of Fowey lies 30 miles to the west and the famous surfing beach of Polzeath is just over a 1 hour drive.
