The Location

Playing Place is a highly desirable and family-friendly village, well placed between Truro and Falmouth and within easy reach of Feock, Loe Beach and the sailing waters of the Carrick Roads. 

The village is well served by a range of day-to-day amenities including a local convenience store, post office, service station with Co-op mini market and a community hall / playground. Further facilities are available at nearby Carnon Downs, including a doctor’s surgery, butcher and garden centre. Families are particularly well catered for, with the highly regarded Kea Primary School nearby and an excellent choice of state and independent schools in Truro. 

For those with an interest in the water, Loe Beach provides access to the Carrick Roads, offering superb sailing, windsurfing, kayaking and paddleboarding, together with moorings and boat facilities in the surrounding area. The National Trust house and gardens at Trelissick are also close by, with beautiful woodland and riverside walks, far-reaching estuary views and access to the King Harry Ferry, providing a scenic crossing to the Roseland Peninsula. 

The well-regarded Punchbowl and Ladle at Penelewey is nearby, while Truro, Cornwall’s cathedral city, offers an excellent range of independent and national retailers, restaurants, cafés, the Hall for Cornwall theatre, cathedral and a mainline railway station with direct services to London Paddington.
