Former mill house & cottages for sale

One of North Cornwall's hidden treasures is the beautiful Rocky Valley between Tintagel and Boscastle. The steep sided valley runs from St Nectan's Glen to the coast with a large stream flowing through it, which in centuries past powered the waterwheel of Trevillett Mill. We are now marketing these ancient premises off a freehold guide price of £875,000.

The mill property, standing only some 500 yards from the sea, dates back to 1472 and worked milling grain for circa 500 years. Of more recent times it has traded as a ground floor licensed restaurant and tea room, but more lately it has provided upmarket holiday letting accommodation. This has been aided by the sensitive redevelopment of two adjacent redundant buildings into holiday cottages known as Trout Beck and Trout Fry respectively. Standing in 4 acres it provides parking for up to 8 vehicles with a further 3 spaces within a large open garage. Given the current configuration of the rooms within the mill house it is thought it may possibly offer the opportunity to do B&B trading.

The holiday letting business trades all year round, assisted by the success of its own website. Recent annual takings are reported to be in the region of £70,000.

Graham Timmins in our Business Transfer Dept comments, "Trevillett Mill really needs to be seen to be fully appreciated. Whilst it offers potential for B&B trading, for those looking for a more relaxing lifestyle it provides not only a fine family home but a good line of income generated by the holiday cottages in the grounds".
