Hornblower Heights
Mabe
Overview
Hornblower Heights is a collection of 30 new homes ranging from one to five bedrooms. Situated in an elevated position on the edge of Mabe in Cornwall, homes will benefit from views across the hillside overlooking Penryn. Just four miles away is the stunning seaside town of Falmouth.
Hornblower Heights comprises a range of house styles, with carefully designed exteriors that blend with their surrounding environment. Each offers practical and modern interior living spaces, resulting in stylish homes that remain sympathetic to the local landscape.
The nearby nature reserves of Argal Lake and College Lake reservoirs lie below the development, offering routes for walking or running through beautiful woodland, wetland and meadow, with scenic views across to St Laudus Church. The trails also link to Penryn and wider walks in the area.

Location
A village location in a beautiful area of Cornwall, where Penryn River opens out to the sea at Falmouth. Easy access to the A39 and A394 means connections to the rest of Cornwall and to Devon are a breeze.
Local amenities in Mabe include a Post Office, pub, community hall, primary school and nursery, and the nearest superstore is less than a mile away. Neighbouring Penryn is one of Cornwall’s oldest market towns, and retains a number of historic buildings. This larger town offers places to eat out, sports clubs and schooling for all ages, and is home to the shared campus of the University of Exeter and Falmouth University. Penryn is the closest train station to the development, on the Maritime branch line between Truro and Falmouth.
The Cornish coastline isn’t far away — with a rich maritime history, Falmouth remains a premier sailing spot and boasts multiple beaches across the bay which stretches out from Pendennis Point. A short distance from Hornblower Heights, Falmouth is a thriving town packed with independent shops, art galleries and cinemas, restaurants, cafés, and plenty of bars and pubs. The town holds events throughout the year, from music and film festivals to regattas, sailing races, and the International Sea Shanty Festival.
The small and charming city of Truro, Cornwall’s capital, is 9 miles away. It has a fantastic cultural scene with theatre and arts venues, including the impressive Gothic-style cathedral which hosts a programme of concerts. The development is conveniently located close to major roads for travel further afield in all directions.
