Location
Tregithey Farm is situated in a truly private and sheltered setting with no immediate neighbours on the south banks of the Gillan Creek, a popular location for the local and visiting yachtsman. Gillan Creek is a small separate tidal creek situated on the southern side of the wood fringed Helford River with its sheltered creeks and inlets. The river and creek open onto the superb sailing waters of Falmouth Bay and the Carrick Roads.

The former market town of Helston, home to the famous Furry Dance on Flora Day is approximately 11 miles distance and boasts a wide range of retail and professional and health services and leisure facilities whilst locally the village of Manaccan provides a public house and village school. St Keverne, approximately 3½ miles distant provides for services and facilities for every day requirements.

The Lizard Peninsula, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty provides a plethora of country, wooded, creekside and clifftop walks and the property is superbly placed for easy access to the sailing waters of the Helford River, Falmouth Bay and the south coast of Cornwall.

The Helford village and the popular sailing club with bar and restaurant organises a variety of social events throughout the year along with regular dinghy racing in the summer. The property lies in the renowned agricultural district in beautiful unspoilt countryside in the heart of the popular and thriving holiday area of the Lizard Peninsula.
