Millcombe House in Lundy, Devon, United Kingdom | Self Catering

Welcome to Millcombe House, Lundy Island, United Kingdom. Built in plain classical style in 1835 for the Heaven family, Millcombe House looks down a wooded valley and out to sea. Possibly the most elegant building on the island, it was built of stuccoed granite, and may well have been designed by the Bristol architect, Edwin Honeychurch. Millcombe is a pleasing and sociable House, planned around a central hall on the ground floor and a central staircase above. The terrace was added later. Originally called The Villa , it was renamed Millcombe House by Martin Harman when he bought Lundy in 1925 after the watermill which gave the valley its name. One of Mr Harman's special Lundy pleasures was the possibility of shooting rabbits from his bedroom window
