Summary
This detached character cottage, in the pretty creekside village of Port Navas, retains many original features. Set within half an acre of lawn garden, with a stream running along the bottom, it provides a tranquil retreat. Port Navas village centres around the yacht club and quay, in a beautifully peaceful spot in the Helford River area. Sailing enthusiasts will be in their element!
The property welcomes dogs and there are plenty of lovely walks in the vicinity. All of the coves and beaches on the Helford River, (except for that at Helford Passage which is closed Easter – 1st Oct), are dog friendly year round. Port Navas lies mid-way between Mawnan Smith and Constantine villages (both 2 miles) which each offer good day-to-day shopping facilities. Falmouth town offers entertainment, boat trips, shops, bars and restaurants and is within 6 miles.

Port Navas is situated at the head of one of the most delightful tidal creeks on the Helford River and is approximately 7 miles from Falmouth, 6 miles from Helston and 16 miles from Truro. Constantine and Mawnan Smith both have a variety of shops.
Port Navas is a good centre from which to visit the many sandy coves and fishing villages of the Lizard Peninsula. The north coast is within an hour’s drive and several secluded beaches are just a short drive away. Passenger ferries are available from Helford Passage to Helford and from Falmouth Prince of Wales Pier to the upper River Fal, St. Mawes, Truro and Helford River. The beautiful subtropical gardens of ‘Trebah’and National Trust ‘Glendurgan’ are nearby
The area is a yachtsman’s paradise, excellent for sailing, motor-boating or rowing and is a perfect base for those wishing to explore the Helford River and its upper reaches, including Frenchman’s Creek, immortalised by the late Daphne Du Maurier. Slipway facilities are available for launching boats and moorings may be arranged. Both motor and sailing boats may be hired locally with sailing tuition available. Local Regattas.

Great location and lovely spacious house. Really quiet and relaxing village to have as a base and lots of other villages, cafes and local shops nearby. The house could do with a bit of attention in a few places, but nothing that would stop us from booking again.
