LOCATION The Roseland Peninsula is widely renowned as one of Cornwall’s most beautiful and unspoilt areas offering soft rolling countryside in what is designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The historic village of Tregony lies at the gateway to this area, conveniently placed not only for access to the pretty fishing villages and hamlets, stunning coastline and superb sandy beaches that abound along the coastline, but also to the cathedral city of Truro with its comprehensive range of shopping, business, state and private schooling and leisure facilities. Nearby, the fast improving town of St Austell is currently undergoing a comprehensive regeneration project and the world famous Eden Project has been the catalyst for this. Tregony retains a vibrant community spirit and includes a number of local shops and facilities catering for day to day needs including a modern primary school, secondary school, sports club, excellent local store, post office, doctors, dentist and veterinary surgeries as well as the highly regarded Kings Arms Inn. There are sandy beaches nearby at Carne and Pendower and access to some of the finest day sailing waters in the United Kingdom from St Mawes and the Percuil River which open out onto the Carrick Roads (Fal Estuary) and into Falmouth Bay beyond. This area is widely regarded as one of the most coveted locations within Cornwall.
