At Kethla House you are centrally located and within easy reach of many of the activities that The English Riviera has to offer such as boat/bus trips, crown green bowls, golf, tennis, water skiing, and many other activities. There are many places of historical and architectural interest to explore, such as 12th Century Torre Abbey and its surrounding gardens, the beautiful chocolate box village of Cockington and not forgetting the fabulous walks along the South West Coast Path. For those who wish to explore the Southwest further, Kethla House is also in easy reach of both rail and bus routes, which frequently run to surrounding towns and villages.
