Description
For Sale by Public Auction on 19th October 2022,7pm at Strawberry Fields, Lifton. Lot 2: Approximately 9.70 acres of south facing pasture land with road access.
Location

The land known as Breja and Buttermilk Hill can be found in the midst of the most south-western extremity of Cornwall, known as the West Penwith or Land Ends peninsula. Bounded on three sides by the Atlantic Ocean, this area has a deep rooted connection with mining and fishing and its unique countryside ranges from moorland, farmland, sandy beaches and rugged cliffs. It is designated an area of Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

This magical place has been referred to as ‘Dartmoor by the sea’.

The nearby and pretty village of Zennor offers a small range of some amenities, whereas the larger and popular town of St Ives has much to see and do including stunning beaches, harbour and the Tate Gallery.

Description
The land at Breja and Buttermilk Hill has been traditionally and successfully farmed by the current owner for a number of years with native breeds such as Welsh mountain sheep and Blue Albion cattle grazing over this.

Buttermilk Hill has also been grazed by a herd of Exmoor ponies, under a Higher Level Stewardship Scheme, which has since finished. However, the land would lend itself to such an environmental management scheme focusing on wildlife conservation, maintenance and
enhancement of landscape quality and character.

This unique parcel of land offers many unique opportunities; continuing farming, creation of a wildlife haven or reserve or a special place to enjoy the fantastic views which extend from the St Ives Bay in the north to Mounts Bay and St Michaels Mount in the south.
