Description

Loe Beach is well known and loved by locals and visitors alike for it's tranquil and scenic location on the Carrick Roads inlet between Falmouth and St Mawes. A heaven for watersports with immediate access to the Fal river this is a truly special location to include the beach to low mean water, a rare and commercially positive situation. Having been in family ownership over many generations and is now available by way of informal tender. The land holding available provides for the beach side car park, which doubles as boat storage, cafe and 'top field' to the rear. The current owners receive rents from the operators and the car parking income. Ample opportunity exists for new owners to either maintain the status quo or to sensitively improve facilities. Either way this is a special piece of real estate.

Location

Loe Beach is situated within the parish of Feock on the western shores of the Fal Estuary. The area is renowned for its attractive coastal setting, sailing facilities and direct access to the Carrick Roads, one of the finest natural harbours in the UK. Nearby attractions are in abundance, to include Mylor, Restorguet, St Mawes and Falmouth, with Truro only 6 miles.

Accommodation

The landholding overall extends to 6.2 acres and includes the private beach of c0.9acres to low mean water, car park and boat storage of c1 acre, cafe and watersports centre, equipment hire and Efoil of 0.2 acres. The top field has been used for grazing and temporary events and camping and extends to c3.8 acres. There is ancillary land and access of 0.2 acres

The title extends to low mean water which provides for significant advantage in terms of control over the beach and water activities. Between the beach and the car park there is the access road for those neighbouring properties to the East, which will be maintained. Please not that the additional access road to Longlands and the area East is not for sale. Within the site but owned by Cornwall County Council are the public toilets which the Loe Beach owners maintain for the benefit of visitors.
