A superb, detached barn in a lovely rural location, with wide country
views to the sea. Dating back to the mid 1800s, the property is
adjacent to the owners' pretty cottage, which once belonged to the
captain of the Nineveh Mine. The mine has long disappeared into the
history of the Cornish Tin era, and this tiny scattering of buildings
now nestles peacefully amidst beautiful countryside by the rugged
Atlantic coastline.
Approached on a fairly narrow 1/2 mile track, there
is just one other residence nearby, and any disturbance is only likely
to come from the moo of nearby cows, or the song of a swallow! Badgers,
rabbits, foxes and bats may be spotted, and there is a lovely array of
wild flowers. From here one can witness stunning sunsets, and a
footpath across three fields joins the South West Path, the source of
magnificent coastal scenery.
The local public house,The Trewellard Arms
is a half mile away and two outstanding village pubs, The North Inn and
The Queen's Arms plus the Geevor Tin Mining Museum are all about a mile
distant.
The property was partially rebuilt and totally renovated in
2002 resulting in first class accommodation. Newly laid wooden
flooring, latched timber doors and quaint little windows provide the
character to be expected of such a building. A truly delightful holiday
home in a tranquil setting.
