A sweeping drive takes you up to Charlton Lodge. The living-dining room has long, lovely garden and sea views, a cosy wood-burning stove for snuggling up to on cooler evenings, and French windows to the gorgeous garden.

You are surrounded by 6½ acres of level gardens and grounds with a large wildlife pond which is 5 feet deep and fountain pool (both unfenced). You have your own sunny patio and lawn plus secluded decked area with rattan furniture Easter to October and sea views, and you're welcome to enjoy some of the grounds which is abundant in wildlife. There is a 'secret garden' sheltered by tall hedges and a mown pathway through our field to a picnic table with fabulous views over Falmouth Bay to St Mawes and up the south Cornish coast. A leafy lane immediately adjacent to the property leads down to the beach and southwest walkway (unspoiled Prisk Cove is five minutes walk). A great chill-out place for peace and quiet at any time of year, and well placed for the Coast Path, boat trips and sub-tropical gardens.
