The farmhouse is a grade two listed house, built around
1740. The smallholding is about 4 acres and was originally a flower farm.
It is jointly owned by members of The Roberts family, all living on the
farm. The property provides very spacious self-catering accommodation,
sleeping up to 14 people, (16 with a bed settee), on three floors. The
house has been used many times as a place for family reunions.
The farm is ideally located for exploring the far South West - being within
easy reach of St. Ives, Penzance, Mousehole, Marazion, Helston, Falmouth
and Truro - very near rail stations of St. Erth, Camborne and Hayle and
40 minutes from Newquay Airport, which is a one hour flight from Stansted
Airport, London (Ryanair - Stansted to Newquay prices start at £20 one
way). Car rental is available at Newquay Airport.

The area is a haven for walking and bird watching with
the RSPB reserve at Lelant saltings four miles away. There is a
trout lake less than 2 miles away. Many National Trust and privately
owned gardens which are open to the public are in the South West,
where sub tropical plants thrive in the mild conditions provided
by the gulfstream. You can also visit the Isles of Scilly for a
day trip on the Scillonian ferry or by helicopter from Penzance. |

Only three miles away is Gwithian with its vast uncrowded beach
stretching from Godrevy lighthouse to the Hayle estuary. This
is a safe sandy beach with rock pools and sand dunes forming part
of the beautiful St. Ives bay.
Other interesting places to visit are Lands End, St Michael 's
Mount at Marazion, the Tate gallery at St. Ives, the ancient settlement
of Chysauster and the impressive open air Minnack theatre on the
cliffs at Porthcurno. There are also a number of tourist attractions
the closest being Flambards Theme Park, Poldark Tin Mine, Gweek
Seal Sanctury and Paradise Tropical Bird Park, The Lost Gardens
of Heligan and The Eden Project.
