Situation - Just inland from the North Cornish coast and a number of sandy beaches, Bannsvale Farm nestles in a picturesque wooded valley with a pretty stream running through.

Mount Hawke is a popular and thriving village, which in recent years has become a sought after address due in no small part to its proximity to the coast. In the village are a range of local amenities with a wider selection found in nearby St Agnes and, of course, the Cathedral City of Truro.

The closest beach is Porthtowan, situated in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Blue Flag Award Winning and renowned for its fine surfing. Trevaunance Cove at St Agnes is popular with families and surfers whilst Perranporth is known for its wide expanse of sand and Chapel Rock landmark.

There are a number of footpaths meandering through the local countryside together with spectacular walks along the South West Coast Path.

Overview - Available on the open market for the first time in around 37 years, Bannsvale Farm is an idyllic 'Lifestyle Business' comprising a variety of properties overlooking the beautiful natural grounds. For many years, the vendor has operated a successful holiday letting enterprise which continues today although only utilising three of the properties, the remaining four units are all subject to longer term residential lets.

In total, the holding extends to 7 acres, encompassing the streamside gardens, small paddocks and the two larger fields that rise up out of the valley and provide some wonderful pastoral views.

The Letting Units - Bannsvale Farm has the benefit of three separate entrances, two of which are off Banns Road and the third over a bridleway. The first access opens to a driveway in front of the properties that are subject to the residential tenancies. These comprise:
