Location - Tregony is located in an enviable position forming part of a small cluster of beach chalets and cabins (7 including Tregony) within Field 4 and close to the outstandingly beautiful Freathy Cliff. The extraordinary panorama encompasses glorious views over the unspoilt coastal hinterland and the sparkling coastal waters of Whitsand and Looe Bay with Dodman Point on the horizon. Nearby amenities include the award winning "The View" restaurant and two beach cafes.

The constant passage of commercial, naval and pleasure craft around Whitsand Bay approaching the entrance to Plymouth Sound, makes this an extraordinary, distracting and inspirational outlook.

Whitsand Bay is a haven for those who enjoy the natural ambience of this unspoilt coastline and for those who participate in water sports there is surfing, bathing, snorkelling and even scuba diving on the artificial reef created by the sinking of HMS Scylla. The ex-Royal Navy frigate was sent to the bottom of Whitsand Bay on March 27th 2004, to become an artificial reef, Since then the wreck has enjoyed lasting success with dive trips and provides a home to a community of marine life, Whitsand and Looe Bay are officially designated Marine Conservation Zones noted for the abundance of marine flora and fauna. Freathy Cliff lies within an Area of Great Landscape Value and is also a designated County Wildlife Site.

Nearby Portwrinkle (4.5 miles) is home to the Whitsand Bay Golf Club and lies on the beautiful south west coast path, just to the west of Plymouth and east of Looe, in an extraordinary unspoilt coastal region away from the tourist routes and adjacent to the beautiful Rame Peninsula. The village of Anthony (3 miles), has a popular primary school, also within the catchment area of two Plymouth grammar schools, with their excellent reputation. There are a much wider range of facilities available in the riverside town of Torpoint with its sailing club and deep water moorings.

The town of Saltash has a Waitrose store on its northern outskirts and the city of Plymouth with its historic Barbican and beautiful waterfront lies within commuting distance. The mainline railway station can be accessed at St. Germans (4 miles) providing an excellent commuting facility (Plymouth - London Paddington 3 hours).
