    The only very minor feedback gripes we have is that there were just two firefighters, three dishwasher tablets, an empty bottle of washing up liquid, and several empty or missing liquid soap bottles in the bathrooms, all of which meant a trip to the local shop. The downstairs central heating radiators didn’t seem to be working very well and as a previous reviewer mentioned it would be useful to have better instructions about the house on arrival.

    The only very minor feedback gripes we have is that there were just two firefighters, three dishwasher tablets, an empty bottle of washing up liquid, and several empty or missing liquid soap bottles in the bathrooms, all of which meant a trip to the local shop. The downstairs central heating radiators didn’t seem to be working very well and as a previous reviewer mentioned it would be useful to have better instructions about the house on arrival. None of these points really detracted from our stay, however, which we all thoroughly enjoyed.

About the location

ST COLUMB MAJOR

Newquay 7 miles; Padstow 9 miles.

An old and picturesque market town nestled among lush green countryside, just five miles from the North Cornish Coast. The resort attractions of Newquay includes bars, clubs, a zoo, vibrant shops, the National Surfing Centre and fabulous beaches are all just 7 miles away, while 9 miles in the other direction is the sleepy fishing port of Padstow. In between lies a beautiful section of the South West Coast path, winding its way over the clifftops, down to tranquil coves and across some of the region's top beaches. The surrounding area is also a visitor’s paradise with much to see and do. Stately homes, world-renowned gardens, adventure playgrounds and theme parks, model railways, fishing lakes and golf courses are all to be discovered within 10 miles. Even the spectacular Eden Project and the Lost Gardens of Heligan, both on the other side of the county, are only 12 miles away, making this a superb base for your Cornish holiday.
