Tregildry sits in a wonderful, elevated and commanding position on the Lizard Peninsula high above Gillan Creek, immediately to the south of the entrance to the Helford River. It lies in the midst of an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Gillan Cove has just a dozen or so houses, a small sandy beach, a stone quay, and from which there are numerous scenic creekside and coastal walks. The Creek is home to an amazing collection of seabirds throughout the year.

Less than two miles away is the historic village of Manaccan, with colour-washed thatched cottages and 12th century church, famous for its 200 year old fig tree growing out of
the steeple wall. There is The Shipwrights Arms pub which can be found nestled on the banks of the glorious Helford river. Three miles away is the larger village of St Keverne with two pubs, a butcher's shop, general stores, newsagent, health centre and Greenhouse restaurant.

The area is renowned for its wealth of stunning coastal walks. A beautiful 3-mile coastal walk takes you from the house to Porthallow and the Five Pilchards Inn and Fat Apples café, both well-worth a visit. The walks from the house along Gillan Creek, the Helford River and to
Frenchman's Creek, the setting for Daphne du Maurier's famous novel, are arguably some of the most picturesque in the Country.
