4 Trewince is a holiday home with a difference – it's just minutes from the beautiful Helford River Estuary and perfect for garden lovers! The apartment commands superb views over extensive landscaped grounds and unspoilt countryside – and the house is little more than a stone's throw from Port Navas creek. Though rural and blissfully quiet, the village is just a few minutes drive from the historic town of Falmouth with its bustling High Street, colourful harbour and the new National Maritime Museum.

			4Trewince is on the first floor and enjoys lovely views over the superb gardens and beyond (the large bay window you can see in the photograph is the lounge/dining area). There is a spacious double bedroom at the rear and a twin-bedded room at the front, overlooking the garden.  Back to top
			The house Trewince is a substantial, detached Edwardian dwelling built in 1903. This photograph, taken from the unique Japanese garden, shows the front elevation and the terrace.  Back to top
			The view 4Trewince looks out over the gardens and the wooded valley which leads down to the village and the tidal creek. It's just five minutes walk down a quiet lane to the pretty quayside with its granite cottages. Port Navas Yacht Club has a cosy bar and serves excellent evening meals.  Back to top

			The Helford River This photograph shows the Helford River looking across from nearby Calamansac towards Daphne du Maurier's 'Frenchman's Creek'. The estuary and the countryside around Port Navas has been designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The Helford is a magnet for sailors, walkers and those who come back year after year simply to enjoy the water, the rocky shores and sandy coves. To the south of Port Navas is the picture-postcard village of Helford, to the east is Helford Passage and the Ferryboat Inn, beyond that are major garden attractions at Trebah and Durgan, the latter managed by the National Trust. Further out towards Falmouth Bay, the Roseland Peninsula and the open sea are Gillan and St Anthony.  Back to top
