Trolver Farm

Trolver Farm lies secluded, alongside a private lane overlooking the picturesque waters of Restronguet Creek, a ten minute drive from the charming city of Truro. It is ideally placed to make the most of all this area has to offer with breathtaking views over the creek, easy access to water sports and boating, lovely walks, and many of Cornwall's most treasured gardens.

Trolver is a deceptively large former farmhouse with four spacious double bedrooms, three bathrooms (one en suite, one with a shower), two bright sitting rooms, a large dining room which leads off the kitchen, an office with internet connection and printer, a utility room with washing machine, dryer, freezer and second fridge. There is a separate downstairs loo. The kitchen has an Everhot Stove (an electric Aga), a fridge, dishwasher, microwave, pantry/larder and a breakfast seating area for three.

Opening up from the kitchen is a large dining terrace fitted with table and chairs, a BBQ and additional deckchairs. Above is an equally large balcony which is accessible from two of the bedrooms and is equipped with 2 smaller tables and chairs, offering a sheltered spot to take in the breathtaking views and sunsets. There is a further smaller outside eating area at the rear of the house which enjoys the early morning sun.

The house is within five miles of Truro railway station, the local General Hospital and two major supermarkets as well as Truro's charming town centre with its variety of restaurants. There is a local Spar shop and two popular pubs within 2 miles of the house. The King Harry ferry is 2.5 miles away and offers speedy and spectacular access to the Roseland peninsular and St. Mawes. The historic harbourside town of Falmouth is less than a 15 minute drive.

The water-sport centre of Loe Beach which includes sailing, kayaking and children's adventure camps, is a mile away and can even be reached on foot along a beautiful footpath. Mylor Marina is 7 miles and offers an impressive range of boating facilities, including the chartering of a 25ft Seaward Motorcruiser called Inez.

Whether it is a winter break, a spring visit to Cornwall's world famous gardens, a seaside holiday with children Trolver is perfectly positioned to give the widest and largest number of options.

Please note that Trolver Farm's owners have opted for a SUNDAY changeover which cuts out the Friday and Saturday traffic jams which so often choke the M4 and/or M5 motorways during the holiday season.

Guest Comments...

"We thought the description of the property rather undersold/understated the property/location which is fabulous!"

"There aren't enough words to describe how beautiful this place is! My jaw dropped when we walked through the gate and saw the view. Obviously the house is fantastic and the kitchen was a main attraction. We were able to enjoy fabulously long walks and home cooked pub food"

"Fabulous house and wonderful weather (August). This is the best holiday house I have ever rented. It was so much fun and the dogs loved it!"
