Location The property is in walking distance of the local Coop, the pretty Riverside area, St Thomas Church and the ancient Packhorse Bridge. A short distance up the hill is the main town of Launceston known as the gateway to the county and sits on the Devon border. The towns skyline is dominated by the ruins of a Norman castle that stands high on a hillside with dramatic views over Bodmin moor and Dartmoor. The castle was a strategically important building after the Norman Conquest and its green was used for executions until the 19th century. Situated between the north and south coasts, Launceston is convenient for beaches and coastal or country walks. There are two golf courses at Trethorne and Launceston, with Roadford Lake Country Park where visitors can fish for trout, sail, windsurf, cycle, row, kayak and camp. Shopping facilities include quirky independent shops, Tesco and Marks and Spencer Food Hall, Argos, Pets at Home, to name a few. The renowned Garden Centre at Homeleigh is on the edge of the town, drawing in many visitors with restaurant and coffee shop overlooking a lake.
