The deep waters of the Fowey estuary are well known to the sailing fraternity. There are nearby golf courses, including St Mellion. Plymouth offers access to cross channel ferry services and there is an international airport at Newquay.
Many of Cornwalls attractions are within easy driving distance, including the Eden Project, The Lost Gardens of Heligan and such National Trust properties as Cotehele and Lanhydrock.
The coastline either side of Looe is beautiful and unspoilt, easily accessible via the South West Coast Path and with substantial areas of ownership held by the National Trust providing a protected environment.
The market town of Liskeard, to the north, includes a wide range of facilities as does the town of Saltash with a Waitrose store on its northern outskirts. The City of Plymouth lies within commuting distance and has an extensive and historic waterfront together with shopping, educational and recreational facilities. In addition there is a cross channel ferry link with regular services to France and Northern Spain.
Description - The Old Post Office and Chapel Cottage comprise a pair of attached cottages presenting opportunities for multi-generational living or home with income in the form of holiday or residential letting.
