The Location
Devoran is a charming creekside village bordering the upper reaches of Restronguet Creek. The area enjoys access to not only boating and sailing waters but also excellent countryside walking and riding along bridle paths and the Bissoe Trail, an 11-mile cycle path starting from Devoran and finishing on the north coast at Portreath. Amenities in Devoran include a doctors' surgery, village hall, highly regarded primary school, church, chapel and the Old Quay Inn, a popular local pub.
Restronguet Creek is a great place to keep a boat, providing easy access to the beautiful creeks of the Carrick Roads, arguably the finest day-sailing waters in the UK. Sailing facilities and clubs for all abilities are within easy reach at nearby Restronguet, Mylor, Flushing and Falmouth, which also boasts excellent marinas and an eclectic mix of shops, eateries and pubs.
The nearby village of Carnon Downs provides an excellent local shop/post office, butchers, dentists and doctors surgery. The neighbouring village of Perranwell Station benefits from another post office/shop, highly regarded pub, The Royal Oak and regular train service to both Truro and Falmouth.
