Glen Avon

'Glen Avon' is a genuine country cottage overlooking one of the creeks of the Helford River, between the villages of Mawnan Smith (2 miles) and Port Navas (1 mile) in South Cornwall. It nestles between farmland and the wooded creekside, with its own private foot access to the water's edge.

The well-known gardens of the Trebah Trust, and Glendurgan (National Trust) are within a mile and a half, with other similar gardens (Carwinion,Trevarno) within visiting distance. It is also an excellent location for exploring the coastline, sailing waters, nearby towns of Falmouth and Helston with their numerous attractions, or for simply enjoying the immediate surroundings, with a host of wildlife to observe and enjoy. There are plenty of excellent eating establishments within a five-mile radius, varying from the waterside restaurant at Helford Passage, to the cosy informality of the Red Lion in Mawnan Smith, or the Trengilly Wartha near Constantine.
