Location

Coombe Road is a quiet residential street and a sought after location in Saltash. The mainline train station is a 5 minute walk from the house with direct trains to London (Paddington 3 hrs 19 min). From the boathouse it is a short, level walk to the waterside amenities including a sailing club, pub and restaurant. A seasonal ferry service runs from here to Royal William Yard and interconnects with the Barbican, Mount Edgcumbe and Cawsand/Kingsand ferries. Saltash has a thriving community, with its own well populated shopping area and a Waitrose supermarket. The China Fleet Club offers leisure facilities, including a Spa and an 18 hole golf course. It is only a quick journey to the larger city of Plymouth, which offers theatres, cinemas, museums and ferries to Spain and France. A short drive in the other direction takes you to the beauty of Cornwall's sandy beaches and Bodmin moor.
