A stunning piece of architecture in an equally lovely North Cornwall setting, Ennys has been restored to all its Georgian glory
Ennys
Gorgeous Georgian

A bucket list of many people’s dream home would probably include Georgian period home, featuring the classic sweeping staircase, wide flagstone lobby, large light filled rooms (including a library, of course). All set in large pleasure grounds (that include a sub-tropical garden, a heated swimming pool and grass tennis court).

Built in 1688, Ennys has been beautifully restored into a fivebedroom Georgian country home set in 20 acres. It shares much of its architectural details with the National Trust’s Godolphin House, which sits in the next village.
