The property sits in grounds of just over six acres of quite beautiful countryside whilst not in an ANOB the property is noted as a County Wildlife Site. Totally private and surrounded by ancient woodland, with a stream meandering down through the valley to Gweek making this a truly bucolic setting. Both properties enjoy privacy from each other with Mellingey sitting higher up on the hillside.

Mellingey is a former mill, built in the early 18th century but later converted in to a home with further extensions added in the 1970's. Lowartha was a former cowshed. Both properties have been totally refurbished by the current owners in the last couple of years creating two luxurious holiday homes which are currently marketed by Boutique Retreats.
