The Location

Boswedden is perfectly placed to enjoy the very best of the Carrick Roads, combining rare seclusion with effortless access to Cornwall’s most coveted coastal and cultural destinations on both south and north coasts. Located just outside Truro and within easy reach of Falmouth, the area offers outstanding educational opportunities, from acclaimed independent schools to the Penryn campus of Exeter University. The surrounding landscape is defined by rolling parkland and mature woodland, including the beautifully managed Arborist café / restaurant at Killiow, while nearby golf courses provide further leisure appeal. The sheltered sailing waters of the Carrick Roads are very close by, opening into a network of creeks and estuaries ideal for yachting, paddleboarding and exploration. 

This privileged position also places an exceptional variety of destinations within easy reach. The tranquil gardens of Trelissick sit moments away, with Loe Beach providing a friendly hub for watersports, café / restaurant and boat hire. The villages of Devoran and Perranwell Station offer local pubs and primary schooling, while the vibrant maritime town of Falmouth brings galleries, restaurants and a thriving cultural scene. One of the area’s favourite and oldest local pubs, the Punchbowl and Ladle, is located at nearby Penelewey and is within walking distance of Boswedden.

Across the river and accessed via the King Harry Ferry at Trelissick, the Roseland Peninsula offers a refined coastal lifestyle, with St Mawes renowned for its world‑class sailing, elegant waterfront dining and boutique hotels, while Portscatho’s celebrated Hidden Hut brings a more relaxed, culinary charm to the timeless shoreline. 

To the north, the dramatic beaches of St Agnes and Porthtowan offer superb surfing and coastal walking, while the idyllic Helford Passage to the south provides sheltered waters and scenic woodland paths. With Truro’s mainline rail connections and the international links from Cornwall Airport, Boswedden enjoys a uniquely balanced lifestyle: private, peaceful, convenient, fun and full of opportunity, and so well connected to everything that makes this part of Cornwall so desirable.
