Supporting local shops and businesses
Nansledan is host to a number of independent traders and artisans, and is fast becoming a lifestyle shopping destination. Many of them are young businesses that have put sustainability at the heart of what they do, whether that’s through commitments to local sourcing or going plastic free.
From Cornish homewares to artisan hats, and from vintage clothing to beauty boutiques, there is an increasing variety of shops to explore, alongside the various cafes and eateries specialising in delicious Cornish cuisine.
Home is where the heart is
Nansledan offers a wide range of beautifully designed homes of all types and tenures, integrating 30% affordable housing. All homes in Nansledan are built to the highest quality and sustainability standards by a team of award winning South West housebuilders, in response to local needs. Whilst Tourism remains an important part of the local economy, holiday lettings are banned in Nansledan because a house is a home, not a business.
A vision for sustainable living
Nansledan is being built in accordance with design principles originally championed by His Majesty King Charles III, and refined through public consultation into the ten principles of Nansledan.
His Royal Highness Prince William shares this same commitment to build sustainable communities that deliver local housing needs and support the growth of businesses and jobs which help to diversify the local economy.
Nansledan encompasses a return to sustainable human-scale development that is land-efficient, reflects local identity using low-carbon materials, is less car-dependent, and is affordable and accessible to local people and businesses. It is designed to strengthen the bonds of community and place, giving people a sense of pride in where they live and work and in the specific sourcing of local materials and craftsmanship, Nansledan also drives a traditional and sustainable local economy that helps the community thrive.
