Cann Orchard is located in a rural, accessible position approximately 1 mile from the popular village of Marhamchurch, with its primary school, public house, 14th century church and village shop. The North Cornish coast is approximately 3 miles to the west with beaches at Bude and Widemouth Bay, much prized by surfers, and within easy reach of the A39 Atlantic Highway. The popular coastal resort of Bude is approximately 3 miles to the Northwest, and has a good range of individual shops, supermarkets, leisure and sporting activities, doctors, hospital and veterinary surgeries.

Cann Orchard is situated in an idyllic tranquil and picturesque, rural valley setting only minutes from the North Cornish Coast. This lifestyle property offers a splendid country residence with opportunities for multi-generational living, holiday letting and Bed and Breakfast business, extensive orchard for apple juice or cider making and the land for livestock or equestrian uses.

Cann Orchard house offers spacious and flexible family living whilst maintaining many of it’s original character features one would expect from a property of this era including exposed beams, wooden windows, feature fireplaces and slate flagstone floors. The main house benefits from high ceilings and generously proportioned rooms some of which are double glazed and there is oil-fired central heating in the main house and The Coach House.

The two cottages have been used for holiday and residential letting. From the parish road a separate gravelled drive leads to a substantial parking and turning area enclosed within hedges, stone walls and bank to the other side, nicely separating and maintaining privacy for the main house front gardens from the cottages.

Gardens and Land
The property extends to approximately 10 acres of lawned gardens, orchards and a pasture paddock in with road frontage enclosed within Cornish bank hedges and post and wire fences.

Cann Orchard is accessed from the quiet parish road, via a gated entrance onto a shrub and tree lined gravelled drive which leads through the lawned gardens to a parking and turning area in front of the house. A further gated entrance leads to the cottages, over a gravelled drive onto a parking and turning area at the side of the cottages.

The extensive, secluded gardens provide a peaceful and relaxing haven, large lawns interspersed and bordered by colourful mature shrubs and trees, timber decked and gravelled seating areas to chill out and enjoy alfresco dining and entertaining. In the small valley below the house are two wildlife lakes which are overlooked from the large timber decking and summer house / outside bar, providing a wonderful setting for summer barbeques and parties. The extensive apple orchard of approximately 100 productive trees and a pretty coppiced woodland, planted with shrubs and rhododendron bushes attract various wildlife and provide interesting walks around the grounds.
