This is a waterway frequented by a variety of pleasure craft with Plymouth Sound just over 4 miles distant by boat and the River Tamar navigable for about 10 miles upstream. The property commands open views across the unspoilt countryside of the Lynher Valley and Tamar Valleys with the tidal waters of the Tamar Estuary together with the historic landmark of Trematon Castle, the foothills of the Dartmoor National Park, Kit Hill and Bodmin Moor together with the coastal hinterland of the Rame Peninsula all clearly visible from the property.

The nearby hamlet of Forder lies in a Conservation Area at the head of a tidal inlet of the Lynher River with moorings available by application to the Forder Community and Conservation Association. Saltash and Cargreen both have yacht clubs with sheltered deep water moorings. Set within a sheltered wooded valley the unspoilt hamlets of Trehan and Forder enjoy immediate access to open countryside including the Churchtown Farm Nature Reserve with a wide network of footpaths in the vicinity. Golf is available at the St Mellion International Golf Resort or the China Fleet Country Club. Easy access is gained to Saltash's bustling town centre, the main line railway station (Plymouth to London Paddington 3 hours) and the Waitrose store on its northern outskirts. The A38 provides easy access to Truro in the west and Plymouth or Exeter in the east. The wide expanse of Dartmoor and Bodmin Moor provide boundless leisure opportunities and are both within a short drive. The location is rich in natural flora and fauna, combining to create an area extremely popular with yachting and outdoor enthusiasts alike.
