In the Owner’s Words: After 11 years, we still admire the ever-changing views during the seasons, amazing sunrises and sunsets and wildlife who visit us, including deer on the Killiow Estate.

With no near neighbours in sight you feel like you have the world to yourself yet within 5 minutes you are in the heart of Truro. Launching our boat at Loe Beach is easy only 8-minutes away We've grown lots of vegetables in our little allotment and have all day sun in the greenhouse for the chilli plants and tomatoes. Whenever we drive from the top of lemon street towards Falmouth we look across and say,"that's our house on the top of the hill!”Completely on its own and standing majestically for the world to see, we will very much miss you, but we have great memories.
