Cassacawn Mill Seller’s insight: The first time we saw Cassacawn Mill it was a miserable November day with persistent rain and mist but on our way home that day we both decided we had to have it. Not only a beautiful garden, most of which was yet to reveal its true delights to us, but also a very comfortable and tastefully extended house with the adjacent remains of a 17th century mill holding a fascinating history with the ancient leat and stable still in evidence. We moved in during early April, and by that time the garden was at its colourful best with swathes of snowdrops and daffodils; these were followed by primroses and violets, then bluebells and ramsons. Above them the camelias, rhododendrons, azaleas and magnolias were in flower, later followed by a variety of hydrangeas. The garden stretches along the length of a small river. Dippers and grey wagtails often nest by the stone bridge and small river trout can be seen darting for cover. Kingfishers also visit the ponds and in later years ducks breed on the island. Rarer visitors to the garden have included snipe, water rail and bittern. This is truly a special place. We have enjoyed living in this lovely village within walking distance of the shop and conveniently equidistant from both the North and South coasts of Cornwall; an ideal location. We will be very sorry to leave Cassacawn Mill.
