The location

Round Ring Gardens is a highly regarded modern development, ideally positioned on the St Gluvias/Enys side of Penryn, an historic and ancient market town known for its strong sense of community and excellent everyday amenities. The town offers a range of facilities including nursery, primary and secondary schooling, along with independent shops, cafés and essential services. Penryn benefits from excellent communication links, with regular bus services and a train station providing connections to Falmouth and onward to Truro, where mainline services run to London Paddington. Approximately two miles away, Falmouth provides comprehensive shopping, business and leisure facilities and was recently voted one of the best places to live in the South West. The town is enjoying something of a renaissance, highlighted by the regeneration of its inner Harbour area, now offering attractive riverside homes and a growing selection of exciting dining options. Penryn Campus, shared by Falmouth University and the University of Exeter as part of the Combined Universities in Cornwall project, has transformed the town into a vibrant University centre, creating a genuine ‘buzz’ and further enhancing its appeal. Altogether, Round Ring Gardens offers the perfect balance of modern living within a thriving and well-connected Cornish community.
