We live in the Cotswolds in an unspoiled location close to Cheltenham town. We farm rare breed Cotswold sheep and are accidental property developers.
We have two fantastic properties in idyllic locations, one in Cornwall and the other on the farm in the Cotswolds. We decided to share these gems and have now diversified into a holiday letting business. Once you have stayed you will understand why we love these places so much.
We hope that you will love this unique property and location as much as we do.
Ancarva is located in the peaceful hamlet of Southdown on the Rame Peninsula, one of Cornwall’s most scenic and least discovered corners. This Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty offers dramatic coastlines, quiet beaches, and charming villages just minutes from your doorstep.
Within walking distance are the marina and boatyard at Millbrook, while the twin villages of Kingsand and Cawsand—just two miles away—offer shingle beaches, waterfront pubs, galleries, and coastal charm. The South West Coast Path runs along the foreshore, used by locals to reach the village at low tide.
Nearby, explore the 865-acre Mount Edgcumbe Country Park with its stately home, formal gardens, woodland trails, and panoramic views over Plymouth Sound. Penlee Battery offers peaceful cliff-top walks and birdwatching, while Whitsand Bay’s golden sands and surf are perfect for beach days and photography.
For day trips, head to The Eden Project (approx. 1 hour), home to vast biomes and sustainability exhibits, or The Lost Gardens of Heligan, a magical 200-acre estate with restored Victorian gardens and wildlife trails.
Guests often enjoy paddleboarding, sailing, and crab fishing right from the pontoon, or simply relaxing with a glass of wine as the tide rolls in. Whether you're seeking adventure or tranquility, Ancarva offers a gateway to Cornwall’s wild beauty and timeless charm.
The area is also rich in wildlife—look out for herons, egrets, and seals in the estuary, or spot buzzards and kestrels soaring above the fields. Local cafés and farm shops offer fresh produce and artisan treats, while nearby pubs serve hearty Cornish fare and local ales. It’s a place to slow down, reconnect, and explore at your own pace.
