Location
Beside the sheltered Kensey Valley on the cusp of Launceston, the ancient former capital of Cornwall. The social, commercial and shopping facilities of the town centre are within easy walking distance. The property has convenient access to the A30 dual carriageway spine road for Cornwall and Devon, making for easy travel westwards into Cornwall, and eastwards into Devon. To the south of Launceston, Plymouth provides an intercity rail link and continental ferry port. To the east the Cathedral city of Exeter provides the M5 Motorway link, intercity rail link (Paddington just over two hours), and expanding international airport. In all directions from Launceston there is scenery of outstanding natural beauty. To the north is the rugged Cornish coastline famed for popular family surfing beaches and picturesque former fishing villages. To the west are the open expanses of Bodmin Moor, ideal for walking and riding. To the east is Dartmoor National Park, and to the south are the hidden secrets of the Tamar Valley, steeped in 18th Century mining history running out into Plymouth Sound with all its yachting facilities.
