Description
Pentrig has been lovingly owned by the same family and is now on the market for the first time for over 32 years. Pentrig’s name is derived in Cornish from “pen” meaning hill or headland and "trig" which refers to shellfish, especially cockles, mussels and oysters. The term "trigg-picking" or "trigging" is associated with the traditional Cornish practice of collecting shellfish at low water and more specifically on the Helford River on Good Friday, the only day of the year when this is permitted. Upon entering the cottage, you'll be greeted by a warm and inviting atmosphere, infused with a sense of nostalgia and local heritage. The quaint living area exudes a cozy ambiance, providing the perfect space to relax and unwind. The characteristic wooden beams and open fireplace add a touch of authenticity, creating a unique and homely environment. One of the highlights of this beautiful cottage is the rear courtyard.
