Bodmin is 4 miles away and provides a wide variety of shops alongside a choice of supermarkets, educational facilities and a leisure complex.
On the south coast is the scenic River Fowey, an ideal place to keep either a yacht or dinghy as together with its creeks and inlets it provides fantastic opportunities for day sailing. The pretty villages of Lerryn and Golant are well worth visiting, as is the historic port of Fowey.

The Property - Originally the centre of one of Cornwall's grandest estates, Glynn House is thought to be mid to late 18th Century and was occupied by the Glynn family until the property was purchased by Major General Sir Hussey Vivian in the 1830's. A hero of Waterloo, he added the impressive plaster motifs in Glynn Hall's reception rooms, depicting his medals from the Peninsular War. The Vivian family finally sold the estate in 1947.
Vivian's Wing enjoys a magnificent southerly vista across the picturesque wooded Glynn Valley and forms the right hand portion of the principal southern wing of the mansion. Extending to around 2,185 square feet over two floors, the accommodation is beautifully proportioned and full of natural light, courtesy of the wonderful tall sash windows, some with original shutters.
