This property is the perfect location and is within walking distance of Penryn railway station which connects Falmouth to the cathedral city of Truro and a bus stop at the end of the close will take you to the surrounding towns. The town centre and the Tremough Campus are both within easy walking distance with the town providing a range of independent shops and cafes and highly respected primary and secondary schooling.
