Property Description

Bridge Cottage sits in a large, attractive lawned garden beside the river Cober in the ancient market town of Helston, famous for its annual Flora Dance, ideally placed for exploring the Lizard Peninsula and Mount's Bay beaches and villages. Much thought and attention to detail has gone into the restoration of this detached property to preserve its individual charm and traditional character. Exposed granite stone walls, antique pine doors and beamed ceilings add a rustic appeal to its interior. Immaculate throughout, the cottage is cosy and welcoming, an excellent choice for those seeking the convenience of a town location. The garden extends to a third of an acre and the river flows directly alongside, providing a wonderful opportunity for anglers (please supervise young children) or relax with a lazy breakfast on the sunny patio. There is also a chalet games room with full size table-tennis. Have fun in the park a few minutes walk away, with a boating lake and a children's play area. There are scenic walks through the National Trust Penrose Estate to Loe Pool, the largest natural freshwater lake in Cornwall. This unique beauty-spot, with the shingle beach of Loe Bar is quite stunning. The coastal walk to picturesque Porthleven rewards you with its harbourside beach and restaurants serving fresh local produce and galleries exhibiting local artistry. Discover the stunning beaches and hidden coves and caves for exploration at low tide. You may spot dolphins at Coverack, and Kynance Cove holds a Mediterranean ambiance with its azure waters and fine golden sand in contrast to the dark granite cliffs. The charismatic maritime town of Falmouth is a 30 minute drive away with family friendly beaches for sunbathing, fishing, sailing or rock-pooling, castles to explore, parks, galleries and museums, ice-creams, fish and chips and a plethora of restaurants that pepper the charming streets.
