Set in the Cornish countryside just north of St Austell Bay the traditional listed barns have been beautifully and carefully converted into comfortable, stylish and superbly equipped holiday cottages and have been nominated for conservation and heritage award.
The outstanding Eden Project is virtually on your doorstep. Beautiful beaches, truly magnificent coastal scenery, and picturesque fishing villages such as Charlestown, Fowey, Mevagissey and Looe are nearby as are many exquisite gardens and country houses including the memorable Lost Gardens of Heligan, the superb Lanhydrock Estate and Pencarrow.
Walking the coastal path, cycling the Camel Trail, golf, fishing, water sports, adventure parks, Bodmin Moor, investigating Cornwall’s ancient Celtic heritage …you will not find yourself short of things to do. Further to this the friendly advice on what to do and see in Cornwall is only a question away.
Or simply unwind … a glass of wine, swim in our indoor heated pool, a good book, unhurried time with friends and family … it’s not hard to see why the guests return again and again…
Welcome to my site!
After graduating in Computing in 1990, I accepted a position as a programmer at a Runcorn based software house specialising in electronic banking software, namely sp/ARCHITECT-BANK on Tandem Computers (now HPE NonStop). This was before the internet became more prevalent and so the notion of enabling desktop access to company accounts for inter-account transfers and book keeping was still quite a cutting edge idea (and smartphones only ever hinted at in Space 1999). The company was called The Software Partnership (which was taken over by Deluxe Data in 1994).
I spent 5 years in Runcorn developing code for SP/ARCHITECT for various banks like TSB, Bank of Scotland, Rabobank and Girofon (Denmark) to name but a few. I then moved onto a software house in Salford Quays for further bank facing projects. After a further 23 years in the IT industry and now a Senior IT Project Manager (both Agile and Waterfall delivery), I thought I would echo out my Career Profile in this corner of the internet for quick and easy access.
