At the bottom of the garden is a vegetable patch with raised beds. A driveway provides parking and there is a garage with adjoining workshop.

Location - The village of Philleigh is a little more than a hamlet with a cluster of old houses and cottages together with some newer bungalows encircling the parish church. The village is particularly well known for the Roseland Inn pub and being just two miles or thereabouts from the picturesque King Harry Ferry. The Roseland peninsula is scheduled as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and this is renowned for its many scenic attractions both inland and along the coasts. The beaches at Carne, Pendower and Porthcurrnick are within a few minutes driving distance from the property and all the harbourside villages such as Portloe, Portholland, Portscatho and St. Mawes are all within a few miles. There are good sailing facilities at Percuil and St. Mawes and the city of Truro with its Cathedral and fine shopping center is about seventeen miles away (or eight miles via the King Harry Ferry). Here there is a main line railway link to London (Paddington) whilst the nearest commercial airport is at St. Mawgan, near Newquay.
