**Location**
Seascape is situated in an elevated south and west facing position only a
short walk from Downderry and Seaton Beaches. This is a prized location on a
stretch of coastline often referred to as the Cornish Riviera. Bathed in
natural light throughout the day and commanding awe inspiring sunsets over
Looe Bay the views also take in Whitsand Bay with the passage of commercial,
naval and pleasure craft providing an extraordinary, distracting and
inspirational outlook.
The crystal clear waters of Whitsand and Looe Bay are renowned for bathing,
surfing, kayaking and all manner of watersports.
Within the bay diving trips to hms Scylla can be seen, the ex - Royal Navy
frigate was sent to the bottom of Whitsand Bay on March 27th 2004, to become
an artificial reef, Since then the wreck has enjoyed lasting success with dive
trips and provides a home to a community of marine life, Whitsand and Looe Bay
are officially designated Marine Conservation Zones and noted for the
abundance of marine flora and fauna. Downderry lies within an Area of Great
Landscape Value.
Downderry and Seaton have a primary school (rated "good" by Ofsted),
restaurant, beachside public house, church, beach café, village store, post
office and doctors' surgery. Similar facilities are available at St Germans,
which also has a main line railway station providing a useful commuter link to
Plymouth (Plymouth to London Paddington 3 hours). Seaton also has a
Countryside Park with riverside and woodland walks.
Downderry was in recent years noted by the Sunday Times in a list of the top
ten "Best Places to Live by the sea". Golf is available at Portwrinkle, St
Mellion International Golf Resort, or Looe Bindown. The South West Coast Path
is accessed nearby with parts of the neighbouring coastline in the ownership
of the National Trust. The beach has a slipway and offers the opportunity to
keep and launch boats (by permit). Seaton beach benefits from a rnli Lifeguard
station during the summer.
The sailing waters of the area are favoured by yachtsmen and deep water
moorings are available on the Rivers Lynher and Tamar at St Germans, Saltash
and Fowey/Polruan. Saltash has a Waitrose store on its northern outskirts and
the city of Plymouth offers an abundance of facilities centred around the
historic and fascinating waterfront areas of the Barbican and Hoe. The Tamar
Valley Area of Outstanding Beauty, the famous surfing beaches of North
Cornwall, the Rame Peninsula, Mount Edgecumbe Country Park, historic country
houses and many other places of interest lie within an easy drive.
