Description

This distinguished, architect-designed, gentleman’s residence, built in 1911, was originally commissioned for a retired sea captain and is rich in period character with subtle nautical influences. Entering through the front porch, you step into a tiled foyer with a striking porthole window before reaching the grand entrance hall, where a staircase takes centre stage. To the left, the dual-aspect dining room featuring a marble fireplace with a log burner and a door leading to the rear garden. Further along the entrance hall, the spacious living room boasts three large windows, and a second log burner set within an ornate marble fireplace with a copper hood.

The Milk Store

Location

St Columb Major, referred to locally as St Columb, is a small town around six miles west of Newquay. Ideally positioned for easy access to north Cornwall, the town lies minutes from Watergate Bay and Mawgan Porth - both of which offer beautiful big beaches, excellent surfing and magnificent coastal walks along the South West Coast Path.

St Columb sits between Newquay and Wadebridge and is named after the sixth-century Saint Columba of Cornwall. On Shrove Tuesday, and for the 11 days subsequent, the town participates in the tradition of ‘hurling’, a sport that involves two teams moving a silver ball to different goals across the parish. The town has plenty of handy amenities, including independent shops, butchers, a branch of Marks and Spencer and The Cornish Company.
