Major new tourism destination planned for Cornish town


Preliminary pans to create a major new tourism destination in the Cornish town of Falmouth have been submitted to Cornwall Council, with a full planning application set to follow later in June 2014.

The proposed St Michaels Spa & Wellness Resort would feature a spa, a health club, improved conference and wedding options, restaurant facilities and shops, as well as new and upgraded accommodation, a news report in the local media could reveal.

There would be six new lodges, a new health club, two gyms, 51 flats, a new restaurant and bar, a reception area, two shops, underground parking for 170 cars and a new access road from the beach.

Nigel Carpenter, owner of the site, said: "Falmouth is by far the most exciting, forward looking town in Cornwall and one can almost feel the energy and positive approach of everyone in the community. This is a town which encourages creativity, vision and progress.

"We hope to develop an outstanding, premium-quality resort which will create many jobs for local people and bring a lot of business to the town."

If Cornwall Council approves the plans, the first works would begin in January 2015. It is expected that, when completed, the £25m investment would create more than 70 jobs.
