Once
the Rosehill Country Club, this property stands near the top of the hill
above the village and consequently has glorious views over open
countryside to St. Issey church and beyond. The owners have converted the
building with flair and imagination and many original features remain
including the bar which is still available for residents’ use
and to which, obviously, all occupants are very welcome. The bar
has t.v., dart board, games, cards and the
terrace just outside has picnic benches taking advantage of the views.
What a great way of relaxing after your journey and unpacking - just walk
20 yards to down a pint and admire the view!
The
character village of Little Petherick, which derives its name from 'little
Padstow', is tucked away in a quiet valley formed by a creek which flows
into the river Camel and along which follows the Saints Way, an ancient
footpath linking Padstow to Fowey on the South Coast. Footpaths on both
sides of the creek lead on to the Camel Trail just on the outskirts of
Padstow by the Iron Bridge. The Trail follows the line of the old railway
track between Padstow and Bodmin via Wadebridge and much of its length
(now used for walking or cycling) lies beside the Camel estuary - an Area
of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The historic fishing town of Padstow,
having a number of seafood restaurants and interesting shops, is only two
miles and you are just a short drive to a number of glorious sandy
beaches.
This is the largest of the Rosehill apartments parts of which were
converted from the main bar area of the original country club. It really
does feel like you are stepping into your own personal pub since the
original bar remains intact and is now used as the kitchen. The lounge
area has the original feature stone wall with fireplace containing wood-burning
stove which, together with the beamed ceilings and wood panelling, creates
a wonderfully warm and welcoming feeling. The main living area is open
plan and has patio doors opening onto a large terrace specifically for the
use of No. 1, which has lovely countryside views.
