Calamansac (West Wing)

Calamansac forms the western headland of Port Navas Creek overlooking the Helford River. The houses stand in 50 acres of meadow garden and woodland, wonderful for spring flowers. The woods drop down to Port Navas Creek to the east and Helford River to the south and west. It is secluded, 7 miles from Falmouth and close to the village of Port Navas.

Access is by a steep private road, about half a mile long, leading from the centre of the village.

Calamansac provides a unique opportunity for launching dinghies at all states of the tide and in any weather. There is a road through the wood to a slipway and a safe anchorage with a lock-up boat house for storage of gear. Calamansac provides superb access to the water, the Helford and its fascinating Creeks;- dinghy parking, launching and mooring for your own boat and a range of boats for hire, all by arrangement. Please call our office for further information and tariffs.

Though part of the same building, joined by the playroom, the East and West Wing's have separate access and parking, establishing their privacy. When both wings are booked as one, sound resisting doors can be opened, otherwise the playroom is let for the sole use of the East Wing.

With the possibility to sleep up to twenty-nine the East Wing, West Wing and Sail Loft together provides a unique setting for large groups.

Free Membership of Port Navas yacht club where meals are also available, is included. Trengilly Wartha is within 2.5 miles and serves very good food.

N.B. Please note that the West Wing has been completely renovated during the winter/spring of 2008. New photos and description added 14.06.08
