General Comments - The Barns at Haelarcher Farm are a fabulous range of traditional stone barns that have planning permission granted by Cornwall Council for conversion into three individual dwellings. The location is very special and whilst very close to Lizard village centre, it is very quiet and backs onto fields. There are fabulous far reaching views including excellent sea views from the proposed living accommodation in two main barns and outside. The barns are also within a five minute walk of the south Cornish coastal footpath. The buildings are very attractive with natural stone elevations with substantial granite lintels and quoins which will look stunning once the conversion is complete. There are two single storey detached barns and the planning permission granted is to convert into three - one detached four bedroom, and two semi detached three bedroom dwellings. French doors will open from the two largest barns into the gardens and these will have fantastic sea views. The main detached barn has the largest gardens which are south facing with views and planning has been granted for a detached double garage. The barns will open onto a central courtyard garden. A further piece of ground is included to the south for additional parking and ample space to erect further garages and outbuildings (subject to consent).

Location - Lizard village centre is within as short walk of the barns and includes three pubs, several local cafes and an excellent primary school. It is the United Kingdom's most southerly village. Much of the surrounding coastline is protected by the National Trust and the peninsula is classified as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, characterised by towering serpentine cliffs, magnificent beaches and pretty fishing villages. The larger nearby village of Mullion has an outstanding secondary school and wider range of daily facilities. Helston lies approximately ten miles to the north and has a good selection of shops, banks, building societies, schools, churches, restaurants and public houses.
Kynance Cove, one of the best-loved beaches in the county, is two miles to the west, the pretty fishing village of Cadgwith is three miles away. The adjoining footpath leads to the South Cornish Coastal Footpath with far reaching views and walks towards Lizard Point and Kynance Cove.
