Groyne Point, Helford River Groyne Point in the middle, the main Helford River to the left, and Polwheveral Creek to the right. Unfortunately one would need to be about 20 feet tall to see the seaward end of Groyne Point.

Lovely little cottage in perfect position next to a beautiful lake yet still so close to the beautiful Praa sands beach. Lovely big summerhouse right by the lake to use. Only a few miles drive into Porthleven for great restaurants or Helston for a supermarket shop.
