St Columb Major is a historic market town in mid Cornwall, with a wide main street and a fine parish church that reflect its past as one of the county’s more prosperous inland towns. It also has a long tradition of hurling, an ancient street game still played here each year. The surrounding countryside is good for quiet walking, with the north coast beaches around Newquay within easy reach.
