Overdene

This very comfortable, detached bungalow is set in its own good-sized garden in a rural setting on the outskirts of the village of Budock Water. The village has a Post Office and general stores, a friendly pub the Trelowarren Arms that also serves food, and an old church with a tower that stands out against the skyline.

Budock Water is on the edge of Falmouth, an interesting maritime port that has many facilities, a good variety of shops and is the home of the new National Maritime Museum. Swanpool is the nearest beach and can be reached by car in five minutes and will take 30 minutes approximately on foot. The road to Swanpool passes the 'Pitch and Putt' course and the Falmouth Golf Club. The Helford River area, with its boating facilities and the large tropical gardens of Glendurgan and Trebah, are approximately 4 miles away. There are many footpath walks in the surrounding area of Overdene.

This older style property is an ideal base for a family holiday with plenty of room to spread. It has a good sized enclosed garden, which is at a lower level at the rear, giving an elevated view from the house of the fields behind and the distant sea view.
