The Land
Cardew extends to some 75.56 acres (30.58 ha) and is enclosed within a ring fence. The land benefits from a private water supply and is bounded to the West by the river Ottery. Providing plentiful summer grazing and fodder conservation for livestock enterprises, the productive land is accessed off the farm entrance drive and via internal farm lanes.
The land is gently sloping, rises to the 200 meter contour above sea level and is mostly Grade 3. The hedges, gate places and fences have all been well maintained.
Approximately 10.70 acres (4.33ha) are designated as a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) and details of this designation can be obtained from the selling agents. The farm has much environmental appeal and is currently in a Higher Level Stewardship Agreement which ends on 30th September 2022. Details are available from the selling agents. Purchasers will therefore be able to apply for a new Countryside Stewardship agreement over the farm as early as Spring 2022.
There are no footpaths crossing the farm.

Situation
Cardew Farm is approached over a long private lane, and sits at the heart of its own land. The nearby village of Wainhouse Corner, some 4 miles distant, caters for day to day needs including a general stores/post office, shop /filling station, and a well respected public house.
From here the popular cove at Crackington Haven is just 3 miles away with access onto the North Cornish coastal path. Widemouth Bay is 5 miles further north along the coast and home to fantastic surfing and sandy beach.
The town of Bude is approximately 9 miles away and offers a wide variety of things to see and do including the popular sandy surfing beaches and rugged coastline nearby.
The proximity to the A39 gives access to the large towns of Bideford and Barnstaple to the north and south further down into Cornwall. Inland at Launceston, access is gained onto the main A30 trunk road to Exeter, the M5 and beyond.
