  • "Beautiful cottage, comfy beds and great location."

    The kitchen was well equipped , however it would be good to add a coffee plunger to the facilities and to have a few basics available like foil, kitchen spray etc. Not a huge problem at all just a suggestion. Would love to stay here again ., Many thanks, Su

    Hi Su, thank you for your feedback and pleased to hear you enjoyed your stay. There was a cafetière at the property when we were last down in the summer so apologies for its disappearance - we will look to replace. Kind Regards, Steve Property Owner

  • "Hi Kimberley house is a charming cottage However the showers are lethal."

    The doors arent wide enough to get in & out. no handles to support you whilst getting in & out. My Son had a bad fall whilst getting out of the shower. Drains are blocked reported to Maintenance.still blocked after plummer attending. There are no comfortable chairs to sit on. My friend and I are in our twilight years.. Not suitable for our needs. Kind regards Carole Anderson

  • "The heating pipes vibrated so badly we had to switch it off at night."

    It stopped working completely on the 3rd day. There was none of the promised wood for the log burners. I booked it because there was a bathroom each for my mum and me, but the upstairs bathroom was full of black mould. The tiny basin in the shower room was cracked right through. The freezer was so dirty I had to wrap our cool box blocks in cling film before putting them in there. There was dust and dirt everywhere. It was like someone had done a 5 minute whip round, but that was all. At over £100 a day, I expect a much better standard than this. Such a shame, as all our othere stays at Sykes cottages have been lovely.

  • "Beautiful cottage and setting."

    The enclosed garden was perfect for our two pups. Very clean and welcoming on our arrival. It was always lovely to return to after our trips. Problem with downstairs toilet flush was attended to promptly when I contacted Flint. Thank you x

  • "Had an amazing week at Kimberly house."

    We’re definitely looking at booking it again. It sleeps 7 so more than enough room for my husband and I along with our two greyhounds. Cottage has everything you need, everything works. The property has lots of character. Garden is massive, well kept, and enclosed Parking wasn’t an issue most of the time we got a space right outside on the square, but when that was full the free car park is a 2 min walk away and always had spaces. The village itself is so pretty, the pub is dog friendly and a 2 min walk away, we didn’t eat there so can’t comment if the food is good, only a mile or so from Newquay and short drives from other popular towns, it was a great base for exploring Cornwall, we didn’t want to leave!

  • "Really enjoyed our stay at Kimberley House."

    The kids loved playing in the games room and the dogs enjoyed the huge garden space! The cottage is very traditional and we loved the country feel - with modern facilities such as an Echo device in the kitchen and smart tv in the living room. Plenty of space inside and out of the cottage to avoid feeling cramped up with 6 of us and 2 dogs staying! It was in an ideal location to access lots of different activities for the kids (age 6 and 3), and lots of beautiful beaches all within a 10-20 minute drive. The pub at the top of the road was very welcoming and we had a great Sunday lunch there; we parked our cars in the car park to the right of the pub behind the church. We would absolutely consider coming back again we have had a fantastic holiday!

The property

Perched in the idyllic village of St Columb Minor near Newquay in Cornwall, is this character-filled, semi-detached cottage, Kimberley House.

Enjoying a fantastic location within easy reach of a good selection of beaches and the bustling attractions of Newquay, Kimberley House is a fantastic family-friendly choice for a group or family of seven.

The property benefits from parking in a free car park and two enclosed gardens, perfect for your pooches to safely run and play!

On the ground floor, you will find a fully-equipped kitchen where you can rustle up tasty meals in the warmth of the woodburning stove, ready to enjoy at the kitchen dining table, alfresco out in the large rear garden, or at the dining table in front of the feature fireplace.

Just off the kitchen, you will find a handy utility, along with a shower room, perfect for quick freshen ups!

After dinner, retire to the sitting room where you can kick-back on the plush corner sofa in front of the crackling woodburning stove, as your favourite show plays out on the Smart TV, or head to the games room, where you can enjoy the delights of an arcade machine, table football, TV with Playstation and a drinks fridge.

Upstairs, you will find four tastefully decorated bedrooms, a super-king-size with zip/link, a king-size, a twin and a single, all of which have access to a well-appointed bathroom with gorgeous roll top bath and walk-in shower.

Explore the village, where you can treat your loved ones to a well-deserved meal at The Farmers Arms, order in from the Chinese takeaway, or stock up on essentials at the convenience store.

For a wider selection of amenities, head into Newquay, where you can spend a day at Newquay Zoo or the Blue Reef Aquarium, enjoy leisurely strolls along The Gannel Estuary, savour fresh seafood at The Harbour Fish and Grill, hike up to the clifftops to visit Huer’s Hut, spend a day at the beach bathing or learning how to surf, or test out your swing at the excellent golf club.

Continue onto Perranporth, where you can explore the Perranzabuloe Museum, visit the fascinating Cligga Head Wolframite Mine, or time your visit right to attend the annual Tunes in the Dunes Festival in June.

For a taste of city life, venture further to Truro, home to Truro Cathedral, Royal Cornwall Museum, Boscawen Park and Truro Golf Club.

All this and more awaits at Kimberley House.

About the location

ST COLUMB MINOR

Porth 1 mile; Newquay 1.6 miles; Truro 14 miles.

St Columb Minor is a quiet village off the main road into Newquay, with a supermarket and an excellent local pub, the Farmers Arms. Here, apart from being well-known for their food and local ales, a varied range of weekly events prove most popular. Opposite the pub, is the magnificent village church, dating from around 1430, and the high tower has been a landmark for generations of fishermen. There are many lovely beaches on offer in Newquay that you will be spoilt for choice but, for families, Porth beach takes some beating. A lovely sandy beach with a sheltered aspect being protected by headlands on both sides, it has been a favourite with those in the know for many years. Just over a mile away is the town of Newquay which is known as the home of the UK’s surf scene, boasting three major beaches, the National Surf Centre and an endless supply of rolling surf, making it a watersports paradise!
